SUN RA'S "SUPERSONIC JAZZ" GETS A DELUXE RE-ISSUE

When Sun Ra released his debut Saturn release in 1957, he signaled the Arkestra’s mission for the future. 

The cover declared the album a "21st Century Limited Edition." The compositions on Supersonic Jazz conveyed optimism and hope, bringing a message auguring the World of Tomorrow.

Official expanded 2xLP / 2xCD edition features 14 tracks of alternate versions and studio takes, and the CD contains an additional four bonus tracks.

Liner notes by avid Sun Ra fan Ira Kaplan of Yo La Tengo, and additional essay from longtime Ra blogger Rodger Coleman (NUVOID Sun Ra Sundays).

Vinyl includes a 12x12 insert reproduction of the alternate Saturn jacket art.
