Where this album fits
- Career context
- Released in 1976, this album came during Sun Ra's prolific period, following his acclaimed work 'Space Is the Place' (1973). By this time, he had already established himself as a pioneer of avant-garde jazz, and collaborations with notable musicians like Pharoah Sanders marked a further exploration into cosmic themes and free-form experimentation.
