Sun Ra's Departure - Black Classical Compilation 2010




In April, 2010, Blackclassical began soliciting contributions towards 'The Sun Ra Project.'  The idea was to collect original recordings, original cover versions, and visual artwork from readers to be stirred into a monumental and fascinating 2-hour mix celebrating Sun Ra and marking the anniversary of his earthly departure.  The result of the collective efforts was originally presented as a webcast on Space Invader Radio on May 30, 2010.  Unfortunately, I miscalculated the difference between local and broadcast times (and missed 1/2 the show) and Blackclassical kindly send me the below.  Many Meni Amens & Thanks to BlackClassical for creating and sharing this Cosmo Alter Ra-recording.
