That's All Nonviolence Is - Organized Love.

The Hardest Song To Write Is A Protest Song, A Topical Song With Meaning.

I Went To Jail For 11 Days For Disturbing The Peace; I Was Trying To Disturb The War.

Back Then I Was Still Listening To Rhythm And Blues, And My Aunt Took Me To See A Pete Seeger Concert. And It Gelled. He Made All The Sense In The World To Me. I Got Addicted To His Albums, And Then Belafonte And Odetta - They Were The People Who Seemed To Fuse Things That Were Important To Me Into Music. I Think Pete The Most Because He Did What He Did To The Point Where He Took Those Enormous Risks And Then Paid For Them.

The White Music Was Melodic And Pretty, And You Had Beautiful Women's Voices Like Gogi Grant And Even The Andrews Sisters. Then I Went Directly To Rhythm And Blues, Which Had Beautiful Voices But Not Much Melody In Particular And Pretty Much The Same Chord Pattern. I Loved It, I Was Entrenched In It, But Then Folk Music Came In The Middle Of That For Me, And Made Its Own Path. And It Was Part Of The Rebellion Against Bubblegum Music, Or Music That Is Pretty But Doesn't Say Anything.

The Foundation Of My Beliefs Is The Same As It Was When I Was 10. Non-violence.
