Despite the fact that Sun Ra has over 1,000 titles copyrighted in his name, a good part of his concert and recorded repertoire consisted of works by other composers. He arranged—in his idiosyncratic way— tunes by Monk, Gershwin, Henderson (Fletcher and Horace), Jerome Kern, Irving Berlin, and countless others. But no one breezed into Sun Ra set lists more often than the "Duke"—Edward Kennedy Ellington.

Sun 1972 is the lone album by Australian progressive jazz rock group Sun. Produced by Horst Riepold for RCA Victor and released in August 1972. Australian musicologist Ian MacFarlane said the album was "a collectible progressive jazz-rock album". Australian singer Renée Guyer was a member of the group on this recording and later went on to have a solo career.

We could say it's the 2nd album of Blue Sun, but recorded as a back up group to Jytte Pilloni. Good Danish roots psychedelic rock with at times hard guitars and superb female vocals from Jytte. + 1 Bonus track: "Jonnie The Junkie".

"In tomorrow's world, men will not need artificial instruments such as jets and space ships. In the world of tomorrow, the new man will 'think' the place he wants to go, then his mind will take him there." — Sun Ra, Jazz in Silhouette album notes (1959) Jazz in Silhouette is the quintessential record of Sun Ra's Chicago period during the late 1950s.

Thirteen hours of unreleased and ultra-rare music. The Eternal Myth Revealed is a 14 disc docu-biography of Ra's life and career, from his birth in 1914 up to 1959. In addition to his own music, it includes music he was influenced by, and a lot of stuff he may or may not have had a hand in as arranger, vocal coach, pianist or something else. Sun Ra's output was as prolific as Ellington's, and discographers have had nightmares and arguments attempting to document it accurately.

Every Sun Ra album is unique. Yet even by Ra's standards, DISCO 3000 is an outlier. However, it sits comfortably in the Sun Ra discography — because it's weird.

Circles Around the Sun’s third full-length studio album, a self-titled, seven track collection, marks the final recordings of founding member and guitarist Neal Casal. The sessions were tracked at legendary recording engineer Jim Scott’s Southern California studio just one week prior to Casal tragically taking his own life. In a note left behind by Casal, he requested that the album be completed and for the band to continue in his absence. CATS surviving members keyboardist Adam MacDougall, bassist Dan Horne and drummer Mark Levy honored those wishes, making a decision to finish the album and to move forward as a band.

À la tête de son Arkestra, Sun Ra a enregistré plus de 200 albums, le plus souvent sur son label Saturn depuis la fin des années 50. Vénéré (ou détesté) pour ses compositions à tiroirs et ses performances phénoménales autant que pour la bizarroïde philosophie cosmique qu'il prêchait, le pianiste d’Alabama fut un bruitiste qui influencera de nombreux acteurs de la scène expérimentale des années 70 à nos jours. Un créateur à part que ce Sun Ra répétant inlassablement : « Certaines personnes sont contrôlées par des forces venues d’autres planètes. J’en fais partie, donc je ne suis pas réellement libre ».

As if from the farthest reaches of space, a tremendous positive energy has come to us via "Light on a Satellite": It is Sun Ra's music, played by his Arkestra, more than 30 years after the legendary band founder's earthly demise - or, in other words, after his reported ascent to Saturn. Under the direction of Marshall Allen, the NEA Jazz Master (2025) and multi-instrumentalist, who celebrated his 100th birthday on May 25, 2024, Sun Ra's big band has arrived safely in the 21st century, after traveling Sun Ra's space ways for almost 70 years. This album pays tribute to the lifetime achievement of Marshall Allen, who leads the Sun Ra Arkestra since 1993. Recorded in Studio A at New York's Power Station on June 16, 2024, the album celebrates the mastery of the exceptional musician Marshall Allen as a multi-instrumentalist, arranger, bandleader, teacher, and guardian of Sun Ra's unique legacy.
