SUN RA - JAZZ BY SUN RA VOL 1:
Really beautiful stuff and not at all as out-there as some of his 60s and 70s material. "Call For All Demons" is great, really a special track, but the rest of the album is very nice listening too. Beautiful high quality reissue complete with booklet. Single LP but postage as for two records due to the thick cover.
