Young. CD has two bonus tracks with 20+ minutes of bonus material.
A collection of torrid live club performances at the legendary NYC venue Slugs.
Originally released in 1972, these recordings provide an intriguing glimpse of the
Arkestra’s repertoire and virtuosity towards the end of their first decade in New York.
Universe in Blue is a rarity. After-hours music, showcasing Sun Ra’s twisted take
on the Blues, these recordings brought him to the greater attention of New York jazz
writers and helped cement his reputation for audacious showmanship.
Ra and his band performed at the famed East Village Slug’s almost every Monday
night for several years through the late sixties, and took the stage sporadically for
several years thereafter. This collection of undated performances from 1970-71 was
issued in small-run pressings with two different LP covers on Sun Ra’s Saturn label
around 1972, but has largely escaped further notice
