Astro_Blackness: Sun Ra’s Message from Space

“It’s after the end of the world. Don’t you know that yet?” Sun Ra with June Tyson and the Cosmo‐Myth Arkestra visit a post‐Apocalypse Earth.

 

Edited and produced by Dwight Frizzell from four decades of recordings of Sun Ra and his Cosmo Myth Arkestra for the From Ark to Microchip series. Portions of this program were recorded at a 1986 performance at Parody Hall in Kansas City, Missouri.

 

“Astro Black Mythology

Astro Timeless Immortality

Astro Thought in Mystic Sound

Astro Black of Outer Space

Astro Natural of Darkest Stars

Astro Reach Beyond the Stars

Out to Endless Endlessness

Astro Black American

The Universe is in My Voice

The Universe Speaks through the Dawn

To those of Earth and Other Worlds

Listen While You Have the Chance

Find Your Place Among the Stars

Listen to the Outer World

Rhythm Multiplicity

Harmong Equational

Melody Horizon

Astro Black and Cosmo Dark

Astro Black and Cosmo Dark

Astro Black and Cosmo Dark

Astro Timeless Immortality

Astro Thought in Mystic Sound

Astro black Mythology.”
