Art Yard Records continues its voyage into the omniverse of unreleased Sun RA tapes with 'I Roam The Cosmos' � an unreleased, previously unheard 1972 live session recorded at Slug�s Saloon in New York. Limited 180 Gram Vinyl Pressing Only with Tip On Sleeve. Check!!

Fronting a stellar 18-piece incarnation of the Arkestra, I Roam The Cosmos finds Sun Ra taking us on a poetic journey to the outer limits of planetary awareness. While the captain of the space-ship declaims his message with Arkestra vocalist June Tyson as co-pilot, the Arkestra voyage into the solar centres of esoteric astro-black knowledge aboard a comet-trail jam on �Discipline 27-II�. As
current Arkestra member Knoel Scott observes in his liner notes, Sun Ra was a teacher, come down to earth to spread the enlightenment of the ancients and advance the alter-destiny of humankind. This earth was not his home: he was here to wake the sleepers, and to make sure no-one would
forget his message. The universe sent him to converse with us, and I Roam The Cosmos is another unique message from Saturn, delivered for tomorrow�s world by Art Yard Records.
