SUN RA AT THE SHOWCASE: LIVE IN
CHICAGO contains previously unissued live
recordings of the legendary intergalactic
composer/pianist Sun Ra captured live at

between November 4-10, 1977. This is an
official release on producer Zev Feldman's
Jazz Detective record label, in partnership
with Elemental Music, and in cooperation
with the Sun Ra Trust. Researched and
compiled by longtime Sun Ra archivist
Michael D. Anderson, and transferred from
the original tape reels, this limited-edition
180-gram 2-LP edition (and deluxe 2-CD
set) includes an extensive insert with rare
photographs; liner notes by GRAMMYwinning
author and historian Ashley Kahn;
and interviews and statements from a who's who of music icons.
