Whether you're a seasoned jazz enthusiast or a newcomer to Sun Ra's work, this album offers a gateway into the boundless creativity of one of jazz's most enigmatic figures. The album's themes of cosmic exploration and intergalactic travel are as relevant today as they were in 1973, making "Space Is The Place" a timeless classic that continues to inspire and captivate.

Available on various formats, including vinyl and digital, this reissue is a must-have for any music lover's collection. Immerse yourself in the otherworldly sounds of Sun Ra & His Intergalactic Solar Arkestra and let the music transport you to a place where the boundaries of jazz are limitless.

    Clearly more profound, impactful, and layered than my Third Man reissue. That's the AAA mastering difference for ya.

  • Sun Ra's Fuzzy Gem

    5 out of 5 stars
    Bbomfardvamggi96June 5, 2024United StatesπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

    Fantastic audio and pressing, the price was reasonable when I grabbed it a few years back. Can't make a bad choice if you're a Sun Ra enthusiast. Sure, Sun Ra appears a bit fuzzy on the cover but wouldn't be surprised if that's how it was originally?

  • Decent Alternative Version

    3 out of 5 stars
    HkcazuhqPevMay 30, 2024United StatesπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

    I ain't listened to the original version, but this one's alright. If the first recording wasn't that amazing, then this one's pretty good. I haven't checked out any other pressings, so I can't say for sure. The music's a bit out there, melodic, spiritual, and strange at times. My copy came without any flaws, which is good considering this series.
