- Handpicked rarities and fan favorites include out-of-print titles and first-ever vinyl pressings !

Verve Records/UMe and Third Man Records have partnered to resurrect the popular reissue series, Verve By Request, with a vinyl twist. Focusing on rare gems and fan-requested jazz albums from the Verve Label Group's stable of iconic labels, the series will offer two titles per month each hand-picked by Verve and Third Man Records. The records will include both long-out-of-print titles from the vault as well as the first-ever vinyl pressings for albums released in the '90s and aughts.

Albums will be newly remastered from original analog sources, when available, and pressed on 180 gram at Third Man Record Pressings in Detroit.

Space Is The Place highlighted by the rousing 21 minute title track is both an essential album and a great onramp for new listeners to travel the spaceways of Sun Ra's other-worldly blend of avant-garde jazz, experimental rock, and Afrofuturism.
