“Cleanse my heart... Give me the ability to rage correctly” ― Joe Orton, The Orton Diaries

Alice Bag reminded me that there was an alternate soundtrack to Los Angeles in 1969, one that existed outside of the Top 40 hits of "Boss Radio" 93 KHJ. For folks growing up in East L.A. and South Central, KGFJ and KJLH were spinning soul, R&B, and early funk sides that would shape the future of music. Here's another playlist I curated to give you the soundtrack of black and brown L.A. in 1969:

New York beat cronies slumbering through Harry Smith, Burroughs and Ginsberg, University Columbia || Colombia, or the crazy is just what we need, not to "explain" tears in the fabric but to widen them with signs of solidarity that  engage with the spiritual every day. Not for the faint of heart, but power to the strength of mind - body and celestial alignment.  -  With thanks to Kem Walker.
