  • Atlantis is an album by American jazz musician Sun Ra and his Astro-Infinity Arkestra, released in 1969 by El Saturn Records. The album heavily features the "Solar Sound Instrument", a Hohner Clavinet. One of the four compositions which originally featured on Side 1 of the original release was substituted by a different piece for the 1973 reissue, though reusing the same name, "Yucatan". Both pieces appear on the later CD reissue. The title track covered the second side of the LP and is regarded as a key prototype for Sun Ra's performances through the 1970s. It was recorded at a 1967 concert at the Olatunji Center of African Culture in New York and has been described as "a masterpiece that twists and turns through many soundscapes". [The title track Atlantis is] one of Ra's most epic pieces, which is free or 'space' jazz at its most invigorating. While virtually indescribable, the sonic churnings and juxtaposed images reveal a brilliant display of textures and tonalities set against an ocean of occasional rhythms. Its diversity alone makes this is an essential entry in the voluminous Sun Ra catalog.—Lindsay Planer (en)
  • Atlantis ist ein Jazzalbum von Sun Ra and His Astro Infinity Arkestra. Die zwischen 1967 und 1968 entstandenen Aufnahmen erschienen 1969 als Langspielplatte auf Saturn Research und wurden 1973 von Impulse! Records in veränderter Form neu aufgelegt. 1993 erschien das Album als Compact Disc auf Evidence Records, 2014 als Download auf Enterplanetary Koncepts in der „2014 Sun Ra Centennial Remastered Classics Series“. Atlantis gilt nicht nur eines von Ras vielseitigsten Alben, sondern laut All About Jazz insgesamt eines der besten, die er je veröffentlicht hat. (de)
