Magic City, Disco 3000 (definitely get the reissue w/ bonus tracks if you're interested in him that much), and Atlantis. The last one isn't a favorite of mine, but it's very good for getting well acquainted with his style. His live stuff can be absolutely fantastic.

Did anyone know that Sunny Ra's band is still going around playing as the Arkestra? Well, granted they aren't as big as they were, but still I'd fancy to see them live.

I love Sun Ra. I've been listening to Jazz in Silhouette.
