Space Is The Place is the 1973 album by jazz pianist Sun Ra. This CD was released on 10 March, 1998.
To speak of Sun Ra is to speak of the universe. There's too much to talk about explore.

When this album was released on Blue Thumb, it briefly moved Sun Ra out of the obscure spotlight and into the minds of jazz fans. Purists weren't sure what to do with him, but those with adventure viewed him as the future. While hardcore fans may find other albums to be personal favorites, for the casual fan this is the perfect place to begin. And what better place to begin than space? It's the place.

Space Is the Place provides an excellent introduction to Sun Ra's vast and free-form jazz catalog. Typical of many Sun Ra recordings, the program is varied; earthbound songs, like the swing number "Images" and Egyptian exotica piece "Discipline 33," fit right in with more space-age cuts, like the tumultuous "Sea of Sound" and the humorous "Rocket Number Nine." Sun Ra fuses many of these styles on the sprawling title cut, as interlocking harmonies, African percussion, manic synthesizer lines, and joyous ensemble blowing all jell into some sort of church revival of the cosmos. Throughout the recording, Sun Ra displays his typically wide-ranging talents on space organ and piano, reed players John Gilmore and Marshall Allen contribute incisive and intense solos, and June Tyson masterfully leads the Space Ethnic Voices on dreamy vocal flights. This is a fine recording and a must for Sun Ra fans.
