Sun Ra – The Singles is a definitive 2CD compilation released by Evidence that uncovers a fascinating, lesser-known chapter of the Afrofuturist pioneer’s career. Originally produced in limited quantities for his own El Saturn label, these 7-inch singles represent Sun Ra’s unique attempt to bridge the gap between cosmic exploration and mainstream R&B.

This collection showcases the Arkestra’s versatility, moving seamlessly through strange "Arkestrated" R&B and otherworldly doo-wop. Performing under pseudonyms like The Cosmic Rays (featuring Calvin Barron) and The Nu Sounds, the ensemble delivers music that sounds simultaneously ancient and futuristic. It is an essential alternative to the high-priced original vinyl pressings, offering a rare glimpse into Sun Ra's work during his Chicago years and beyond.

Key Highlights:

  • Genre-Defying Sounds: An eclectic mix of cosmic jazz, R&B, and shimmering vocal harmonies.
  • Rare Covers: Includes a high-energy version of Jerry Lee Lewis’ "Great Balls Of Fire" and the kitschy Batman tribute, "I’m Gonna Unmask The Batman."
  • Historical Significance: Features early recordings dating back to the late 1940s, providing a foundational look at the evolution of Sonny Blount into the mystical Sun Ra.

Whether you are a seasoned collector or a newcomer to the mystical musical universe of the Arkestra, this compilation serves as a vital document of one of jazz’s most visionary figures.
