Ha...Terrific piece, and thanks for the dedication. Have you read "The Truth of Masks" by Oscar Wilde? Bob Wilson loved that essay.<br /><br />When I first went to Europe in 1985 a friend gave me a card with a Sun Ra quote, "You made a mistake and did something wrong, so make a mistake and do something right."<br /><br />Have you head the recent Lady Gaga song "Venus" which samples Sun Ra's "Rocket #9." I enjoyed Graham Lock's book on Ellington, Sun Ra, and Anthony Braxton.<br /><br />"Space is the place, next stop Mars."<br /><br />PS I loved Olsen's essay "Projective Verse" and read it repeatedly in the 1980's.Eric Wagnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04312033917401203598noreply@blogger.com
