Sun Ra - The Definitive Singles Volume 2
LABEL: StrutThe long out-of-print definitive collection of singles released by jazz maverick Sun Ra during his Earth years, spanning 1952 to 1991. Released prolifically during the 1950s and more sporadically thereafter, primarily on the Saturn label, the 45s offer one-off meteorites from Ra’s prolific cosmic journey, tracing the development of his forward-thinking “SpaceBop” and his unique take on jazz and blues traditions which sounded unlike anything else from the period.
