Review title: Innovative and strange mixture of different genres
Product review: This is one instance where seeing is an important part of the experience as the paraphernalia of costume and theatrics was quite an important part of Sun Ra, so I've been told. This CD is mainly a meeting of African talking drums, tin pan alley and electronic music and most of it is pretty simplistic and boring stuff. The main work is the title track, which is 22 minutes long. I wonder if the enthusiasm for it is part nostalgia as I don't find it especially rivetting. I wanted to hear it to find out what the fuss was about and am disappointed. As a lover of improvised music I find John Zorn's work much more interesting and enjoyable - if you like experimental music in the manner of Sun Ra(though I accept that Sun Ra is a "one off") then check out John Zorn's soundtrack work for Japanese films.
