Fannie Lou Hamer once said, "Sometimes it seems like to tell the truth today is to run the risk of being killed. But if I fall, I'll fall five feet four inches forward in the fight for freedom. I'm not backing off."

John Lennon once said, “Music is everybody's possession. It's only publishers who think that people own it.” It's good he thought that, considering how many albums have built on his sound over the decades, including this week's Needle Drop Record.
