Thread Name: Hammel On Trial
Subject: Hammell On Trial
OK< get ready for this: a Woody Guthrie/Bob Dylan type recitation about race in USA with musical refrain. He calls himself Hammell on Trial, The CD (out of print) is called "Big as Life" and the l0 minute number is called "Big as Life," life here refering to Life Magazine. Here's the end of the talking/recitation part, with rapid guitar chords accompanying: "Roger Manning said something about hatred can be any color, But as I look around this whole world Not just this room tonite, But on this side of city, that side of the city this city, that city, this state, that state It's blue, baby blue, that's the color we've all got." Now is that is that great, or what? Anybody ever heard of "Hammell on Trial"?
