Item Description
The Earthly Recordings of Sun Ra is a docu-discography of the music of Herman Poole Blount (arrived on the planet May 22, 1914; left the planet May 30, 1993). Sonny Blount is much better known by the name he adopted in 1952: Le Sony'r Ra, or Sun Ra.

Sunny cut his first sides in 1946 with blues shouter Wynonie Harris. Around 1951, he formed his Space Trio; after several experimental ensembles of different sizes, he built his Arkestra in 1955. From 1954 until shortly before he left the planet, he produced over 120 LPs that got some kind of official issue, and over 20 45-rpm singles, not to mention many hundreds of rehearsal and concert tapes. The Arkestra continues to perform today, under the leadership of Marshall Allen. All of Sunny and the Arkestra's recorded music, released or unreleased, is documented to the fullest extent possible in The Earthlies. Concerts that are not known to have been recorded are also mentioned when we know of them.
