Recorded in New York City in April 1965, The Heliocentric Worlds Of Sun Ra, Vol. 1 stands as one of the most ambitious and otherworldly releases in jazz history. Released on the legendary ESP-Disk' label, the album showcases Sun Ra and his Arkestra pushing the boundaries of free jazz with a cosmic vision that was truly ahead of its time.
This 2015 50th Anniversary reissue brings new life to a landmark recording, pressing Sun Ra's expansive and exploratory sound onto 180-gram green vinyl. Featuring an ensemble of some of the most inventive players of the era — including John Gilmore, Marshall Allen, and Ronnie Boykins — the album weaves together free improvisation, unconventional instrumentation, and Sun Ra's singular compositional vision into an experience that remains unlike anything else in the jazz canon.
