Sun Ra
Celestial Love
Modern Harmonic 8218
first re-issue of this rare Saturn release
True studio albums of Ra with the Arkestra are rare on this planet or beyond. This studio saucer is an interplanetary interpreter, here to convert even the faintest of heart to the sounds of Sun Ra. Recorded with Arkestra veterans at the same NY studio that hosted countless Sun Ra sessions since the late 60s, this first ever reissue of Celestial Love contains the only known recordings of the titular track and “Blue Intensity,” plus a cut not on the original Saturn LP! Originally recorded and released on Saturn Records in 1980, the Sun Ra co-conspirators include stalwarts John Gilmore, Marshall Allen, June Tyson, Vincent Chancey, Tyrone Hill, and others.
Includes;
Celestial Love
Sometimes I'm Happy
