Sun Ra

Cosmic Tones For Mental Therapy


One of the most discussed of Ra's New York era recordings 'Cosmic Tones' functions as a blueprint for the sort of largescale jazz weirdness that would inform much of Sun Ra's subsequent works featuring the woozy reeds of And Otherness and the afrojazz experiments of Thither And Yon On Adventure Equation a space echo treatment on the recording which is reprised for the sax flurries on Voice Of Space makes the whole experience even more disorientating and excitingThe album has increasingly been discussed within the context of anticipating psychedelia or pointing towards the space funk of George Clinton when asked about Sun Ra in 1979Clinton said 'This boy was definitely out to lunch the same place I eat at'
