Description
El Saturn 12480 Classic Sun Ra intergalactic rarity with paste on steamship and arkestra picture sleeve
Sun Ra Aurora Borealis (Ra Rachmaninov) Saturn 12480 Aurora Borealis is a very interesting album of solo piano from Sun Ra. Side A features two Ra compositions, "Aurora Borealis" and "Omniscience," both of which feature pretty melodic passages laced with dissonance and some thunderous low chords. Despite getting pretty "out," there is always a strong sense of structure and some downright stunning passages. Side B begins with Ra interpolating Rachmaninov's Prelude in C# Minor (!), then moving into "Quiet Ecstasy," a beautiful, sparse and contemplative piece. Aurora Borealis is one of only a handful of solo piano dates from Sun Ra, and remarkable for that alone. BEAUTIFUL BLUE COVER WITH FLORESCENT ORANGE COVER ART ON THE FRONT! COVER IS IN NEAR MINT CONDITION! VINYL IS NEAR MINT AND APPEARS UNPLAYED! Side A: Prelude in C# Minor (Rachmaninov) Quiet Ecstasy (Ra) Side B: Aurora Borealis (Ra) Omniscience (Ra) Sun Ra- piano Recorded on Oct. 4th or Dec. 4th 1980.
