Nina Simone : Live @ “Montreux Jazz Festival”, Switzerland
“For me it has become nearly impossible to believe that something like this actually happened. It could never happen today, and nothing like it will ever happen again in the future. I am speaking, of course, of such a thing happening without a script*. Certainly events like this happen all the time in the movies. In the movies we invent and witness this kind of stuff all the time. Hell, much *more intense and moving sequences are churned out by institutions like “Hollywood” with such monotonous regularity as to challenge the accuracy of an Atomic Clock. In the movies. In reality “we just do don’t that sort of thing” anymore. So in my opinion, it is of particular importance that we (as a species) have in existence the finest possible quality rendering of one of the very last sequences of reality captured on film.”

“I’m a real rebel with a cause.”
Includes two rare early performances captured live in 1961-1962 Nina Simone has always been hard to classify. The “High Priestess of Soul” was trained as a classical pianist, but branched out early into pop, gospel, jazz and blues, playing and singing everyone’s compositions and writing many of her own. At 28 years old, she had already been seen in many clubs and had recorded several LPs when in 1961-62 she agreed to be filmed, without audience, in a New York City studio. On the1961 date, Nina Simone, on piano and vocals is accompanied by Bobby Hamilton (percussion), Chris White (bass) and Al Schackman (guitar). This is the same group that had backed her at the Newport Jazz Festival the year before.
In 1962 she headed back to the studio and performs with Montego Joe (congas), Lisle Atkinson (bass), Paul Palmieri (guitar), and Warren Smith (percussion). At that time, she was playing with this group of musicians at the New York City jazz venue The Village Gate.
Selections include: Sunday in Savannah, I’ll Look Around, When I Was in My Prime, Zungo (a Nigerian chain gang song taught her by the great drummer Babatunde Olatunji), For All We Know, Strawberry Woman, Crab Man…, I Loves You, Porgy (from Gershwin’s Porgy and Bess) and some jazz improvisation. These are two rare performances, captured live, that every Nina Simone fan will treasure.
“I’ll tell you what freedom is to me: no fear. I mean really, no fear!”

Nina Simone: The Time Is Now
Marcus Garvey…
Marcus Garvey was a Jamaican-born black nationalist and leader of the Pan-Africanism movement, which sought to unify and connect people of African descent worldwide. In the United States, he was a noted civil rights activist who founded the Negro World newspaper, a shipping company called Black Star Line and the Universal Negro Improvement Association, a fraternal organization of black nationalists.
Subterranean Blues Dreams…

Bernie does talk the talk about economic equity, but endorses and votes for unprovoked corporate-American wars about extraction, exploitation and extortion.
Dreams…
Many assumed truths could be lies. The human propensity for creative synthesis, imaginative conjecture and blind faith seems unbound.
American Foreign Policy Created the crowds seeking asylum at our borders
“Since Theodore Roosevelt in 1904 declared the U.S.’s right to exercise an “international police power” in Latin America, the U.S. has cut deep wounds throughout the region, leaving scars that will last for generations to come.”
