text: # Somewhere Else (Sun Ra album)
  
  Somewhere Else is a 1993 album by free jazz composer, bandleader and keyboardist Sun Ra released on the Rounder label. The album consists of tracks recorded in late 1989, at the same sessions which produced the albums Blue Delight and Purple Night, but it was not released until shortly before Sun Ra's death, over three years later.
  
  ## Reception
  
  The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 4 stars stating "Due to the variety and very interesting personnel, plus many examples of the keyboardist/leader stretching himself, this somewhat obscure effort is easily recommended to Sun Ra collectors".
