Sun Ra Arkestra - Face the Music (1990)



Uploaded by: ekp34
Video Description:
Sun Ra and his Arkestra performing "Face the Music" on the TV show "Night Music" in 1990. The band features John Gilmore, Marshall Allen, June Tyson, etc. For me, NM was and remains the best music show on US TV thus far.

I DIDN'T know he was free jazz. Even if I did, it's good to expose yourself to new music once in a while, or else I would have no right to say that I didn't like free jazz.
