kh1958 Posted June 25, 2005 Report Posted June 25, 2005 The discography, The Earthly Recordings of Sun Ra (second edition), actually makes for fascinating reading in tracing the recording and travel history of the Arkestra. i've just read John F.

Michael Fitzgerald Posted June 25, 2005 Report Posted June 25, 2005 I don't know why the amazon site lists the author of the first as "Annette Schlipper" - it was compiled and edited by James Wolf and Hartmut Geerken. This is the one to get - the second one (ed. by Adam Abraham) is actually included in the first. If you really need something for your fix, try hunting for the Omniverse Sun Ra book by Geerken.

jlhoots Posted June 25, 2005 Report Posted June 25, 2005 There's a section on Sun Ra in Graham Lock's book, Blutopia. Quote
