SOMEBODY'S IN LOVE The Cosmic Rays Saturn Records : 1955 Available on: Sun Ra: The Singles [Buy It]
Moistworks' Astoria Bureau took the red-eye back from sunny California: Concrete deltas! Man-made rivers! Chrysler convertibles! Speeding tickets! And Ameoba Records, where we scored a few of the earliest Sun Ra singles around!
That's right, folks: Thanks to Daddy's credit cards, we bought three of these babies, for $3,650 a pop. And, thanks to our patrician disdain for intellectual property laws, the first thing we did when back in Astoria was toss 'em up on the internet. So: Don't let the labels fool ya: The Cosmic Rays and The Qualities were both Sun Ra projects - early efforts to solidify what our nation's leading music critics have come to call "a sound." What kind of sound? We think of it as something mid-way between a toaster and an elephant: A great big sound, and a bit burnt around the edges. And lest you think this sound of Sun Ra's goes unrecognized in the slimy, beer-soaked corners of our indie rock universe, we're also presenting Hoboken fuzz-merchants Yo La Tengo, with a multi-voiced interpretation of "Somebody's In Love." In which somebody always seems to be in love with the guy or gal to the left of them. And a certain, secret someone might just fall in love with you:
