A key member of Sun Ra's Arkestra, alto saxophonist Marshall Allen is a distinctive performer whose style bridges early swing and bop traditions with the non-chordal note choices and explosive, pyrotechnic sound clusters associated with the free jazz movement. Allen rose to prominence playing with the Arkestra in the 1950s, and later assumed leadership of the group after the deaths of Ra and his immediate successor, John Gilmore. Along with his extensive recorded output with Ra, including 1972's Space Is the Place, Allen was a regular collaborator with Babatunde Olatunji, with whom he emerged as one of the first jazz musicians to fuse the avant-garde with traditional African music. In 2019 he joined Arkestra bandmate Danny Ray Thompson for Ceremonial Healing. At the age of 100, Allen released his first solo album, New Dawn, in 2025, as well as the guest-heavy concert recording Live in Philadelphia.
