Marshall Allen 100th birthday reading - The Wire

To mark the 100th birthday of saxophonist Marshall Allen on 25 May, we have made three articles featuring the Sun Ra Arkestra bandleader free to read in our online library: Allen’s Invisible Jukebox from 2004, a 2015 interview by David Keenan, and Val Wilmer’s 2014 essay on Allen's formative time in Paris during the 1940s.

Watched The Big Lebowski last night for the first time in 15 or so years. I was so delighted to realize that there is a Monks song on the soundtrack.
