Sun Ra is THE key central figure of modern music, period. Flame away
Sun Ra was way way ahead of his time man.
"Gettin the planet ready for space beings, because they'll be here soon" Trippy!
Sun Ra was a Genius!!!
"I feel very lucky to have met Sun Ra, spent some time w/ him, and been inspired by him." My sentiments exactly!
Your lucky i would have loved to meet him
Stockhausen And Sun Ra are the best thing of 20th century
Nice tribute to our man from Saturn: Mystery / Mr. Ra
Lovely, touching interview.
Mister Sun Ra is a true llegend.Sun Ra R.I.P.!!!!🙏🙏🙏👊👊👊

So do I.
Awesome
BRET THAT was delightful . i was laughing out loud." FOX + HOUND" "HE TALKED 4 6 HOURS"...really great story telling.they say SUNRA had issues... but i see just the pure humble artistry..really inspirational... so the guy picks up where he left off years before.. i can really see that..
Great Video,and Sun Ra music is the Real Deal :)
Thank You Bret -Great Story!
Your channel makes our lives richer.
Thank you for posting this. I'll tell Ahmed Abdullah that you mentioned him......
Do you have TAPES of your interview???????? The world needs to hear !!!
You're asking if I dropped Acid before or after the interview? No. But I have seen Sun Ra live while tripping.
Whoa! What was that like? Sun Ra and Acid have recently came to me and almost instantly, became very important to my life.
Which planet did You reach?
This was touching, Im so glad for TH-cam having this kind of content.
Interesting article about Sun Ra: www.newyorker.com/magazine/2021/07/05/how-sun-ra-taught-us-to-believe-in-the-impossible
@@JazzVideoGuy thank you ❤️❤️❤️
thank you for this
you are a lucky man 🍀
I saw a movie many years ago about Sun Ra. It was hilarious and subversive. At the time I think I was in Detroit at the Artist's
Workshop as the house drummer. That was a very touching period for jazz.
The movie you saw was probably Space is the Place.
@@JazzVideoGuy That was it. I saw it in a theatre on Polk Street, San Francisco. With a date! She didn't get it. I thought it was very funny. I had, by that time, tracked down Ornette and my "new thing" jazz career was about to go nowhere. Thanks for the quick response, Bret. You are a national treasure.
The film is here on TH-cam. Quote from intro: "It's after the end of the world. Don't you know that yet?" I'm about your age, Bret, a drummer/keyboardist with some great stories. I hope I can share them with you by some means or other.
Certainly some of my most colorful concert memories include the Archestra, they never failed to entertain whether in free flight moments or semi-synchro phrases. Wonderful stuff. I am sure Sun Ra is traveling the spaceways from planet to planet. Great video as usual. Thanks
Arkestra for those searching on google.
He thought outside the Box!
Thanks Bret, Sun Ra was believes and many do that we have been visited by Ancient Aliens and They will probably be back. ;-)
Thank you for this,Bret.Truly a kindred spirit.
Glad you dig! One of my great encounters.
I so love him!!
Me, too!
Great work! Keep it up!
Thanks for uploading and for sharing your Sun Ra experiences. I've been a fan since the 70s and it was good to see him in interview.
Thanks Bret for posting. You should share more of your oral history of your career and interaction with great musicians.
Sun-Ra, so unique, so misunderstood, such brotherhood ! SunRa always blew my mind. I think they even scared me a little. They crack-me-up now ! Very informative and funny video :-)
Dude Kudos to you for presenting Sun-Ra in a positive light. Most of the stuff you show is...consonant (for lack of a better word). Man, I wish more people had a broader stroke...a greater sense and appreciation in the way that you have it. This was fun to see. Thanks so much for your appreciation and honesty. We will carry on!
Wow great first person stuff.
Great recollection, thank You.
Glad you enjoyed!
Great story, Bret. Man, it seems you have lived quite an interesting life digging the music and the cats who made it. I envy you. I bet I could sit and listen to you tell stories about my jazz heroes all day and never tire of the experience. Thanks for all that you do on behalf of the music. Long live real jazz!
I second that sentiment.
Freemasonry was a stepping stone for Sun Ra, he studied the Zulu , Dogon and Egyptian cultures...
Hey. I am going to study esoteric symbolism and Philosophy that is prevalent through Sun Ra’s material. Do you know where I can learn more? I would like to know how it fits with Freemasonry
@@milaleemusic Mila you have to connect the dots . Sun Ra was influence by Egypt also his spirituality was African centered. Please keep us posted on your journey for knowledge, i want to learn more.
You have a beautiful voice...
great video. Thanks for your insights and stories about one of the most wonderful beings on earth.
elibsf I am so lucky to have spent time with Sun Ra
Hello thank you so much for the video I've been listening Sun Ra's music for over a year and the myth and joy I found on it is amazing and unbelievable would you please tell me what's the name of the songs in 0:24 3:13 4:40
Cool story bro
I'm a very lucky man.

Is there any way to listen to those tapes? Planet Earth must hear
What's the song the Arkestra is playing live? I've heard it in the past but I can't recall the name...thanks!
Here after Lovecraft Country...I'm so ashamed 😔
ashamed of what?
Before there was STAR TREK OR STAR WARS< THERE WAS SUN THE BLAK!!!!! FROM THE COSMO KOSMIC BLACK MATTER MULTIVERSE !!!!! THE GREAT BLACK MOTHER!!!!
2:42 - wear the world's biggest Chore Boy on your head and enlightenment will come ...
I always wondered why he's "SUN RA"
Freemasonry was a stepping stone for Sun Ra, he studied Zulu, Dogon and Egyptian cultures.....George Clinton was of that same school of thought, their message was the same....
Abraham Jackson messa
Nothing Is !!!!! john gilmore takes a solo that you will never forget how he gets whats he gets out of the horn is simple a wonder
so true, so true
This is pre lsd right?
all he was, was a human and that's it. no god. no savior. that's it in a nut shell.
