Sun Ra Pathways To Unknown Worlds (Translucent Gold Vinyl)

Travelogue through a cybernetical soundscape. The future rendered here by Ra seems more dystopian than utopian, and these 1975 guided improvisations are imbued with an underlying violence, alternate twists, bank turns, headchoppers, loops, rolls, sidewinders and drops. It's a dark & glorious journey. Featuring the debut of the complete version of "Extension Out," Pathways has been exquisitely mastered from the four-track session reel and includes an insert offering an enlightening glimpse of Ra & co.'s plans for their major label lucre. Gatefold Jacket.
