Available for the very first time, the intergalactic icon Sun Ra and his Arkestra’s ‘Lights On A Satellite: Live at the Left Bank’ was recorded on July 23, 1978 at the Famous Ballroom in Baltimore, Maryland by the Left Bank Jazz Society.

The limited-edition 180-gram 2-LP set contains audio from the Sun Ra Archives, and was
researched and compiled by Sun Ra archivist Michael D. Anderson.

Mastering by engineer Joe Lizzi and lacquers cut by Matthew Lutthans at The Mastering Lab.

The critically acclaimed independent filmmaker Robert Mugge has also provided audio from the recordings he made at the Left Bank which was featured in his 1980 film ‘Sun Ra: A Joyful Noise’. 

The deluxe package includes liners notes by veteran music critic J.D. Considine, plus interviews with the centenarian Arkestra saxophonist Marshall Allen, NEA Jazz Master saxophonist Gary Bartz and pianist Craig Taborn.

Limited-edition 180-gm 2-LP gatefold set is mastered by Matthew Lutthans with meticulous sound restoration by Joe Lizzi and pressed at 33 1/3 RPM at Le Vinylist
