The Heliocentric Worlds of Sun Ra, Volume One is a 1965 album and a notable example of the radical break which Sun Ra's music of that time had made...

with "previous notions of melody or harmony". Although heavily percussive, the music also dispenses with a continuous beat; instead Ra's music is reconstructed around "interweaving compositional and improvisatory creative principles with programmatic affects".
Comes with the original black and white sleeve designed by Sun Ra himself.
