Let me also chime in my agreement with the statements of rev.b and ritzbird.<br /> Obviously, Mr. Chisud didn't take time to assay Adventure Equation, if he had he would have understood that AE was (I emphasize 'was'.) the world's best repository of information, news and developments concerning Sun Ra. It by far exceeded in value any contribution he is likely to make to Ra's lasting legacy. AE made no money, solicited no contributions, it devoted itself solely to one thing only, Sun Ra. Otherwise obscure and esoteric publications like those of<br /> Norton and Art Yard were reviewed, samples played and encouragement rendered to purchase the originals. I am a Ra aficionado and ninety percent of<br /> what was at AE about Ra, I didn't know.<br /><br /> It was really gracious of Mr. Chisud to grant Yotte his first amendment rights, don't you think? As for me, I won't be purchasing any more Roaratorio, Art Yard, and Norton products. I would encourage all of AE's readers to do the same, that way they can have their 'exclusive right' to nothing.<br /><br /> It is obvious to me that Mr. Chisud doesn't understand Ra's legacy, who he is, his cosmology, and whom he belongs to: us, not corporatists however well-meaning they my be. He saw the potential for a few pittances and leveled his impertinent legalisms against us. I'm sure Ra wouldn't want to see Mr. Chisud win the day. AE made more money for the above merchants than its closure will make for them. How foolish, I never thought Michael Anderson would allow such bad judgment to be exercised in the name of Sun Ra.<br /><br /> Who's next, Charles Blass, WKCR, KFJC, Blackclassical, Sun Radio. You just can't have anything beautiful in this world before greed destroys it.<br /><br /> Best to All Ra-philes<br /><br /> Jim<br /> Reply<br /><br />Add commentAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06676129117526835185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4378349460753339421.post-77289414538972323732014-08-31T06:46:50.819-04:002014-08-31T06:46:50.819-04:00Yay!

Fan since the age of 8, thanks to my dad bringing home the 99 cent ESP Sampler. And so it warms my heart that Ra continues to be embraced by the young folk out there.peterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06490585654539145979noreply@blogger.com
