. . . and here we have it. Of course there's a Lady Gaga cover of Sun Ra's Rocket Number 9. We'll leave it up to you to determine if this is a tribute or a blatant rip-off, or something else altogether.
No one will mistake this club-thumper for one of Sun Ra's many versions, so at least there's that, and if La Ga Ga has to appropriate some jazzman's oeuvre, maybe by taking Sun Ra's she'll inadvertently lead some listeners to dream of the masters.
