Customer Reviews:

Space jazz, Sun Ra style........2005-06-23

Space is the Place was the soundtrack to a low budget film that Sun Ra helped write, star and produced. The movie may be forgettable but the music will live on. Some of Sun Ra's best music can be found on this disc. Filled with celestial jams and galactic funk, Sun Ra's from outer space!
There's not one bad track on this one. You can see why George Clinton made a second career by copying off of the master of space jazz. If you like real jazz or psychedelic music this is a must!

Highly recommended music.

I left my dog in my room with this CD playing. Now he's dead.......2001-08-12

This is a stupid review but I'm a stupid kid. The above statement is false. My dog is not only alive but infact is a female. This CD is reccomended. It's just as weird as Trout Mask Replica if not more surprisingly so but on the other hand hasn't made me vomit yet like Trout Maks Replica did... It's After The End of the World! Now you know.

It's After the End of the World..........2000-10-27

...don't you know? this album cries for an ode to RA! Space is the place, don't you know? get with it people, get lost with this album, or just leave this planet. You're obviously bored with planet earth if haven't heard this yet.

Good collection of songs, but not as strong.......2000-08-29

If you have seen the Arkestra live, you will know that these songs represent songs that he performed quite a bit live. It just seems that this doesn't represent quite the strength that these tunes usually represent. It's still good, and not a bad one to pick up if you are new to Sun Ra, but you might start with Sun Song and Sound Sun Pleasure.

Is there sound in Space?.......2000-07-29

If there is, and it sounded like this, Astronauts and NASA would have stopped their pursuit of trying to get there. This album was a big enough waste of a paycheck to want to warn any of you potential victims. Space is the place for this unrest, for the unknown, for all published copies of this cd
