Born German living in the USA for way longer than living in Germany but often felt not welcome or at odds with this American life, especially now in these uncertain time we live in.

The Sun Ra Arkestra Descends Upon Hollywood Theatre

He is a miracle of the highest order, a grand eccentric, and true genius of the cosmos. A peerless 20th century composer, a poet, a brilliant pianist, a live performance visionary, one of the greatest to ever have lived. A man who may or may not have tripped to Saturn, where the doomed pettiness of Earth living was revealed to him. He is legible as a great American artist, but like many great American artists,...
