SUN RA - THE MAGIC CITY

Originally released in 1966, Sun Ra's "Magic City" must have raised a few eyebrows at the time.
This is improvised, experimental jazz.

It's hard to tell how much of this was instructed and / or directed by Sun Ra but the result became a turning point in Sun Ra's musical career.

Reissued on both LP and CD by the Cosmic Myth Records label and produced by Michael D. Anderson (from the Sun Ra Archives) and Irwin Chusid, this edition has been remastered, has a bunch of extra material and is in stereo !

It's good to hear that a lot of Sun Ra material is being made available through bandcamp, but I applaud the fact that we're getting it released on LP and on CD as well.
What a way to start a new label.
