Sun Ra and Frank Sinatra at The Sands, a previously unknown 1966 recording of the Intergalactic Navigator onstage with The Chairman of the Board, was released today in a joint venture by Blue Note and Mobile Fidelity. "We didn't know if it was real when we first found these recordings. Had we been had? Or did we have what we thought we had? Was it really what it was?," Don Was, president of Blue Note, wondered about his first encounter with the material. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted April 1, 2021 Report Share Posted April 1, 2021 This has been circulating for years. Glad to see it getting a general/authorized release. Too bad it's just the audio, though. I have a very poor-quality VHS of the gig, and it's amazing. What happens when Frank sings "let me see what spring is like on Jupiter & Mars"....whoa. Maybe the world's not ready yet.

kh1958 Posted April 1, 2021 Report Share Posted April 1, 2021 The highlight for me is when Sammy and Dino join for the set ending "We Travel the Spaceways." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bertrand Posted April 2, 2021 Report Share Posted April 2, 2021 The bootleg had some solos that were edited out on the official record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
