Cage's solo spots ruined the whole thing, in my eyes. I mean, I practically splooged myself just on hearing that there was a John Cage meets Sun Ra as they were both two of my heroes at the time(and still are).
Sun Ra was amazing. Then again, give the man a keyboard, and he always is. But that's all we got, Sun Ra's raw keyboard solos intermixed with Cage's, frankly terrible, acupella spoken word pieces.
I was hoping Cage would have brought the fullest of his creative mind, and got the transistor radios in, and brought some game pieces, or something. Putting the focal point in Sun Ra's adeptness to improvisation to John Cage's uncanny compositional inventiveness. Instead, I got them doing two completely different things, only one of those two things I liked, but not amazingly.
Seriously, listening to the whole thing broke my heart, and completely slaughtered, and raped, the child inside me.
