Sun Ra Arkestra - Face the Music (1990)

Back



Sun Ra and his Arkestra performing "Face the Music" on the TV show "Night Music" in 1990. The band features John Gilmore, Marshall Allen, June Tyson, etc. For me, NM was and remains the best music show on US TV thus far.

you're in space age now....you can't run away...you can't hide. Cosmic age. You know you know but you know you're wrong....you got to face the music. Year 2000 knocking on your door...you can't run you can't hide...year 2000 on it's way.

but Sun Ra himself introduces this song as face the music, and he would know what its called.

This is the kind of programming we need on network TV....not silly reality shows.
