  • Bad and Beautiful is an album by the American jazz musician Sun Ra and his Arkestra. Recorded in 1961 in New York City at the Choreographers' Workshop, 414 W. 51st St., the album was the second to be recorded in New York by the Arkestra after leaving Chicago, but would remain unreleased until 1972. The album is considered to represent an important transition between the big band approach of the Chicago recordings, and the more 'outside' approach of Ra's smaller bands recorded later in the decade: 'Aside from "Exotic Two," the tunes are split between standards (apparently the last ones the group would record until the '70s) and blues originals, but there are indications of the direction the Arkestra would take throughout the '60s. "Search Light Blues" has some interesting percussion accents finding their way into the arrangement, and "Exotic Two" alludes more clearly to the percussion-heavy sound that dominated many of the '60s recordings. Sun Ra plays piano exclusively on this recording, and Gilmore gets lots of room to shine. A significant transitional LP, this is probably the last "inside" record the Arkestra would record as they forged new sonic paths into the mid-'60s.' Sean Westergaard, All Music Guide link According to Ra's biographer, John F Szwed, the album announced that Ra was 'now in New York', with its inclusion of the theme music from the film The Bad and the Beautiful, and its Broadway show tunes And This Is My Beloved and Just In Time. The record has been re-released by Impulse! in 1974, and again by Evidence in 1992, this time on a Compact Disc coupled with We Travel The Space Ways. (en)

Die im November 1961 im Choreographer's Workshop, New York, entstandenen Aufnahmen erschienen 1972 auf El Saturn Records, 1974 auf Impulse!. 1992 erschien das Album als Compact Disc bei Evidence. 2014 wurden die Aufnahmen auf Enterplanetary Koncepts wiederveröffentlicht. Das Album stellt das Arkestra in einer Übergangsphase zwischen dem „Hard Space Bop“ ihrer Tage in Chicago und der Avantgarde-Richtung dar, die Sun Ras Musik in den 1960er-Jahren einschlagen würde.
