Sun Ra - Sun Ra (and his Solar Arkestra) Visits Planet Earth reissue with Interstellar Low Ways





Released in 1966 but recorded during 1956 to 1958, Sun Ra (and his Solar Arkestra) Visits Planet Earth is  a jazz album by Sun Ra. The 2006 reissue of the album being the only one I have physically, it contains also the songs of the album Interstellar Low Ways.

The CD was ripped in EAC and encoded with LAME 3.92 in MP3 because of the low bitrate (average of the album is 320kb/s). The album is fully tagged in ID3.

Sun Ra Discography

I'll fisrt start by uploading the discography of Sun Ra, one of the leading figure in Jazz Music.

"Of all the jazz musicians, Sun Ra was probably the most controversial," critic Scott Yanow said, and he was probably right. His philosophy, his eclectic tastes individualized his music.

With his Arkestra, he is responsible for some of the best jazz songs of the 20th century.
