Posted: September 17, 2010 in AmericaTags: America, Chloe Whofford, Duke Ellington, Jack Kerouac, Jazz, Toni Morrison
“You gotta find a way of saying it, without saying it”–music transcending every cultural, social, political, economic, spiritual divide. The Duke. Remember when Duke Ellington would play the piano?
