Wild to think that Jazz in Silhouette was 1959, but to your point about transcending space and time...

My favorites are a bit later – Lanquidity (1978) and Sleeping Beauty (1979).

A good start might be the lone release on Savoy, The Futuristic Sounds of Sun Ra (1962) – China Gates is such a hypnotic jam.

Thanks for the recommendation. I put this on and was floored by recognising the opening bars from a sample in an old Mo' Wax record[0]. Formative sounds for me.
