Sun Ra’s  Nuits de la Fondation Maeght (DELUXE EDITION)
Sun Ra
Nuits de la Fondation Maeght (DELUXE EDITION)
Strut
Here’s an RSD First with a limited pressing of 800 copies. Sun Ra’s recordings from Fondation Maeght had become the stuff of legend. They were among the first concerts Ra performed outside the North America as he joined a crazy fest lineup that included Albert Ayler, Cecil Taylor, LaMonte Young and Marian Zazeela. Originally released on the Shandar label in 1971, Strut has expanded the package to a six-album box set complete with a reprint of the festival program and a 12-page, oversized booklet.

Sun Ra’s Stray Voltage
Sun Ra
Stray Voltage
Modern Harmonic
Here’s another Sun Ra release delivered as an RSD First with a limit of 1,000 copies. The album marketing materials hit the mark here with a laugh: “If you’re looking for melodies, structured compositions, pleasant harmonies, songs you can whistle, and serenades for social gatherings — seek elsewhere.” It’s a two-album set of unissued electronic adventures from the 1970s and ’80s, pressed on frosted orange vinyl.
