Sun Ra and His Arkestra Discipline 27-II

 

Strut and Art Yard present a special release for Record Store Day 2017, the first ever official reissue of Sun Ra’s revered Discipline 27-II LP from 1972.

The recordings for the album took place on the 19th and 20th of October, 1972 at Streeterville Studios, Chicago, with the largest Arkestra line-up Sun Ra had yet taken into a studio session. The date was produced by Impulse! and Riverside veteran Ed Michel and, for the first time, the Arkestra was recorded in quadraphonic sound. Recordings from the same sessions would yield the legendary Space Is the Place LP. This first official reissue of Discipline 27-II was prepared in conjunction with Art Yard and Sun Ra LLC.
