Released in 1982 as a companion soundtrack to the novel Battlefield Earth, Space Jazz was composed by L. Ron Hubbard - prolific science fiction author and controversial founder of the Church of Scientology. Featuring performances from Chick Corea, Stanley Clarke, and other Scientologist-affiliated musicians, the record occupies a strange intersection of sci-fi futurism, celebrity religion, and early digital music production.
