UK CD that is the same as the Savoy label release in the US and was imported in error. Different (inferior) artwork. "A true innovator and a consummate showman, Sun Ra was the first to integrate African rhythms, electronics and the Moog synthesizer into jazz in the late fifties and early sixties when such eclecticism was unheard of. As a musical pioneer, Sun Ra has much in common with the likes of Frank Zappa, Can, John Cage and Michael Nyman and has long been classified more as psychedelic or progressive rock than mainstream jazz. Sun Ra has one of the most collectable catalogues in the history of popular music and this timeless recording The Futuristic Sounds Of Sun Ra from 1961 is both one of the accessible and most classic."
