Description

Space Is The Place is a landmark album from visionary jazz composer and bandleader Sun Ra, originally released in 1973 and widely regarded as one of the defining works of his expansive and otherworldly catalogue.

Blending free jazz, avant-garde experimentation and cosmic philosophy, the album captures Sun Ra and his Arkestra at their most exploratory. The music shifts between hypnotic grooves, improvised passages and richly layered arrangements, creating a sound that feels both futuristic and deeply rooted in jazz tradition.

A cornerstone of Afrofuturist expression, Space Is The Place embodies Sun Ra’s vision of music as a vehicle for transcendence and alternative realities, influencing generations of experimental and electronic artists.

This Verve By Request reissue is presented on 180 gram stereo vinyl LP in a gatefold sleeve, delivering enhanced audio fidelity and premium packaging that honours the depth and scope of this essential recording.
