"sun ra - bandleader, keyboardist, composer and self-made myth - performs and philosophizes in this easygoing yet thorough documentary. mr. ra performs onstage with his intergalactic omniverse arkestra, a big band with singers and dancers, that performs in elaborate costumes, adding ritual and theatrical glitter to a far-reaching repertoray. offstage, mr. ra recite(s) his pronouncements about vibrations, history and 'mythocracy'. even in close-up mr. ra remains an enigma - inspiring to his band members andn never less than entertaining to the outside world." - jon pareles, the new york times
