Free Music Notes for Secrets of the Sun (1962) (Ocrd)
Free Music Review: Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun
Hit: 5 Stars
A rare and essential LP from the 1960s is reissued in a splendor worthy of its significance.
Recorded after Sun Ra relocated to New York, it has a conventional jazz platform, but drenched in the blues and tight rhythms. The lineup consists of Sun Ra (piano and percussion), John Gilmore (bass clarinet and tenor), Marshall Allen (alto sax), Eddie Gale (trumpet), Pat Patrick (flute), Calvin Newborn (guitar) and Art Jenkins ("space voice").
Several of the songs - Friendly Galaxy, Space Aura, Love In Outer Space - became mainstays in live performances, but it's the previously unreleased Flight To Mars, which is 17 minutes of free jazz exploration, that makes the CD simply incredible.
A classic album is given a new launching pad that truly shows the artistic genius of Sun Ra and the musicians which drove his soundscape vision to astonishing heights.
