Duke Ellingtons Spacemen

The Cosmic Scene+ 2 Bonus Tracks Vinyl

The Cosmic Scene+ 2 Bonus Tracks Vinyl

After his enormous success at the Newport Jazz Festival in 1956, Duke Ellington obtained a free ticket to produce whatever project he wanted to, and in 1958 he decided to temporarily reduce his touring orchestra to a nonet which he called �the Spacemen�. With this unit, he made a single studio album, The Cosmic Scene. �Perhaps inspired by the first orbiting satellites,� wrote Michael G. Nastos in All Music Guide, �Ellington is not taking cues from George Russell or Sun Ra, whose extraterrestrial inspirations led them to even more progressive paths.
