Travel the Spaceways, with Marcus J. Moore
Search high and low, in this world and beyond, and you won’t ever find another Sun Ra. So we’re excited about the broadcast premiere of Sun Ra: Do the Impossible, a PBS American Masters documentary that sheds new light on the inexhaustibly inventive composer-bandleader, poet-philosopher, and adopted Philadelphian.
Our own Nate Chinen is a commentator in the film — and so is our guest this episode, the author and critic Marcus J. Moore, who brings a multilayered appreciation of Sun Ra’s artistry to our conversation. Space is the Place!
Chapters:
00:00 … Intro
02:33 … Interview Marcus J. Moore
38:55 … “This I Dig”
