It's After the End of the World (subtitled Live at the Donaueschingen and Berlin Festivals) is a live album by American composer, bandleader and keyboardist Sun Ra recorded in 1970 in Donaueschingen and Berlin and released on the MPS label in 1970.[1][2] The complete concerts were released in 1998 as a 2-CD set entitled Black Myth/Out in Space.
Allmusic awarded the album 3 stars.[3]All About Jazz observed "this gem ideally captures Sun Ra and His Intergalactic (Research) Arkestra at its most otherworldly self. ...such a recording as this offers the next best thing to but a sampling of what it must have been like to experience the path that Ra offered his listeners in a live concert, perhaps the most uninhibited platform for his musical message".[5]
