Thanks, Jim, for playing Swiss Movement back in 1969.

Les McCann and Eddie Harris, Compared to What?

The President, he’s got his war
Folks don’t know just what it’s for
Nobody gives us rhyme or reason
Have one doubt, they call it treason
We’re chicken-feathers, all without one nut. God damn it!
Tryin’ to make it real — compared to what?

About Fenster

Gainfully employed for thirty years, including as one of those high paid college administrators faculty complain about. Earned Ph.D. late in life and converted to the faculty side. Those damn administrators are ruining everything.

    Don’t you love the harsh black and white tape quality? Not pretty exactly but evocative. I knew it was live but didn’t know there was a film of it.
