Notes: After downloading the complete Soundstage dvd torrent with Herbie Hancock, Carmen McRae and Sun Ra, a friend asked me to put the Sun Ra part in a separate file. Then, another friend asked if it would be possible to keep the video part replacing the audio with a better sounding source. I did both things and also added menus & chapters for an easier navigation. On the last moment, I included again the intro of the broadcast, containing beautiful photos and nice commentaries by Sun Ra, but this title remains with its original poorer sound as I have no better recording of it. Thanks to the original seeder of the video and to S.A., who provided the sound recording. Sun Ra Arkestra Chicago Jazz Festival 1981 Chapters.

Notes: As a bonus, this disc also includes all of the music segments (I think)from the Robert Mugge film 'A Joyful Noise'. Almost all are partial performances, recorded live circa 1980, in front of audiences, on a Philadelphia rooftop, and at the Arkestra home on Morton Street.
