Marlon Brando stands with his arm around poet James Baldwin, surrounded by actors Charlton Heston, Harry Belafonte and others gathered at the Lincoln Memorial during the Civil Rights March on Washington, D.C., August 28, 1963.
Never saw this photo before. Wicked cool. One nit to pick: James Baldwin was a novelist and essayist and playwright before a poet.

Califone— Funeral Singers.
What a great band. I think Roomsound is still my favorite record of theirs.
Anyone know of any independent radio stations looking for someone to do an awesome Soul/R&B/Funk show in the greater L.A. area?

abbyjean? anyone else? I’m sure it would be a win for anybody who got holysoul to be their dj. I’ve been digging the tumblr posts for about as long as I’ve been on tumblr. Which has been for a while. I don’t really know how long. But a while. And holysoul has been serving up the goods the whole time, without fail…

Here Comes The Sun ~ Richie Havens
Oh, yes, please….for the sunny, warm, radiant, fluffy, cheerful, beautiful spring day it is here in the Old Dowager…she gleams and almost sparkles like a young bride does London on a day like this!
And yes, I saw Mr. Havens preform this one many times, the best was being taken by my aunt to see him in the Village and I kept thinking how was going to break that guitar with every strum upon the strings. Cheers now
The Box Tops ~ The Letter
It’s a bad day here with the news of Alex Chilton and Charlie Gillett’s passing. This one hangs there…one of the great pop tunes of all times and Alex Chilton is younger than I am damnit! ..the good die too young!
