Our Take

SUN RA's "Jazz In Silhouette" is a cosmic journey through the intergalactic wonders of the jazz universe. Released in 1959, this album still sounds fresh and innovative today, which is saying something considering it was recorded over 60 years ago.

From the frenetic energy of tracks like "Enlightenment" to the dreamy atmosphere of "Saturn," SUN RA takes us on a wild ride through his musical imagination. His blend of traditional jazz elements with avant-garde experimentation results in a sound that is both familiar and utterly unique.

The musicianship on display here is top-notch, with each member of the Arkestra shining in their own right. The interplay between the horns, the rhythm section, and SUN RA himself is a joy to listen to, with each player bringing something special to the table.

But what really sets "Jazz In Silhouette" apart is its sense of playfulness and whimsy. SUN RA's music is not meant to be taken too seriously, with plenty of tongue-in-cheek moments that will have you smiling from ear to ear.

Overall, "Jazz In Silhouette" is a must-listen for any jazz fan looking to expand their musical horizons. With its blend of tradition and innovation, this album is a true gem in SUN RA's extensive discography. So sit back, relax, and let the cosmic sounds of SUN RA transport you to another world.
