I don’t think I’m alone when saying Marshal Allen is a treasure and at 96 still carrying Sun Ra’s torch. This album IMO is everything Sun Ra was/is/and will be.
At 14 I heard Sun Ra for the first time, space is the place, to be exact. My very first girlfriend’s father was on a Sun Ra email mailing list in the mid 90s. He said “You know Thurston Moore posts on this Sun Ra mailing list, you should check him out!” Being obsessed with anything Sonic Youth related so of course I had to give Sun Ra a chance, and well, as the once great ESP Disk motto was...I never heard such sounds in my life!
Now At 38 I’m watching the the morning start with Sun Ra playing, even if he’s on another planet...
