RECORD STORE DAY BLACK FRIDAY 2021 RELEASE LIMITED TO 500 COPIES WORLDWIDE LIMITED TO 350 COPIES IN NORTH AMERICA Omniverse, recorded in New York in 1979 and released that year on Sun Ras Saturn label is a solid, overlooked set in the vast Ra canon. The tracks arent so much compositions as excursions, with few memorable themes or recurring motifs. Its pure jazz, somewhat inside (for Ra), with little of the aggressiveness and confrontation for which the bandleader was renowned. (Visitant of the Ninth Ultimate is an exception.) Omniverse offers lots of reflective piano in trio, quartet, and sextet settings. Instead of a keyboard showcase, Sun Ra engages in dynamic interplay with the rhythm section. The horns are featured largely as soloists; there are few ensemble passages. #sunra #compactdisc
