End of the world

"It's after the end of the world already. Don't you know that?" - Sun Ra.

 

What I remember is

"It's after the end of the world. Don't you know that yet?"

 

Sun Ra was quite something. I am told he and the Arkestra used to live in a communal house in New York City where there were strict rules: no women and no drugs. In the 1970's his shows were full of pagentry and the ethereal. You sure as hell wouldn't have gotten the impression that he was not into either women or drugs from their stage production!

 

I enjoyed his live performances and I have some vinyl that I enjoy even more: straight up Jazz that kicks butt.

Sun Ra, being from Saturn, had undescended testicles, hence even Ms. Handerson was beyond him. But the dude could sightread and transcribe when he was like 6 years old*.

 

 

*Earth years. Because today is the shadow of tomorrow. Today is the present future of yesterday.
