Craft is reissuing on various formats on September 16.  

There is also a book of Sun Ra cover art that looks interesting.

I am really looking forward to this. It should sound great - AAA all analogue cut by Kevin Gray (who does the Blue Note Classic and Tone Poet series, among lots of other work).  I have over 60 Sun Ra albums but have never had this one on vinyl. Also, the Sun Ra cover art book looks very cool. I currently have that in my Amazon cart and will order it around the October release date. The owner of a local used vinyl store told me that the author/editor of the book is a long-time Sun Ra collector who lives an hour or two away in upstate NY. It is a golden time to be a Sun Ra fan due to the many quality reissues on CD and vinyl in the past 10 or 15 years.

yeah, I've heard this new pressing and it does sound awesome. Used to have an original but traded it away...

Stephen- first time I have heard about the extra tracks. As you know I am a Transition label collector and would really like to get them.

My mistake- was aware awhile back.
