Notes
Also known as "The Sun Myth" on some releases, named for the first track.
According to Geerken/Trent's Omniverse, there are three distinct mixes of The Sun Myth:
Version one has African voices very audible throughout and "ESP 1017A 152 DBH" in the runout of side A.
Version two has no voices and "ESP 1017-A ORT-2 DBH" in the side A runout.
Version three as the voices mixed very low, audible at the beginning and end with "ESP 1017A(68) AM967 DBH" in the runout.
Version two seems to have become the standard for later reissues.

Reviews
referencing The Sun Myth (LP, Album, Reissue) B/90132
I also can't understand, why this is banned. The german version is even GEMA-licensed.- Can anyone please tell me how's the sound on this release?
Hi can anyone update runout info here! I have a copy of this 5th AV address sleeve , but Sun Ra pic on both labels
runout is ESP 1017 A with only a sign that might be an "R"
My copy has the labels reversed, anyone else have this?- This entry should be changed to remove "Green" in the header. There is already a matching entry for a 2015 Green release AND the Notes box here says that this one is supposed to refer to the black vinyl version.
referencing The Sun Myth (LP, Album, Reissue) B/90132
why is this banned? Happy Bird was a regular label. my Mint copy could fly into the outer universes...
Same as ESP DISK LP/The Heliocentric Worlds Of Sun Ra, Vol. 2
Sound quality is no problem
I listened that it seems to be mastering from the master tape
