The Sun Ra Arkestra
The Cry Of Jazz

Single US 2004 on Atavistic label
Jazz (Free Jazz, Space-Age)

Filmed in Chicago & finished in 1959, The Cry Of Jazz is filmmaker, composer and arranger Edward O. Bland's polemical essay on the politics of music and race - a forecast of what he called the Death of Jazz. The film foresaw the political unrest of the subsequent decades, and forms the only known footage of Sun Ra from his Chicago Period. This release is part of the Unheard Music Series.
