Grenadians
x(and
all)
true,
true
i
want to be clear that i am not out to make a buck nor in any way hurt
or take advantage of any of the musicians, music, anyone involved
with the production, their families et al. most important really is
for these documents to be as accurate and full as possible. my intentions
are good . . eh . . will soon sketch out with your input, some sense
of a way to make this music best available
those
years from 1979 to the end (1983) were most important to me and to
my very life. having had the amazing opporunity to work on three extensive
films through that time gave me the real priviledge of having met
many of the revolution. what rare and fine energies there were. they
were. we are... still. it is in this spirit i hope we can make the
CD (s).
i
look forward to hearing from any of you that wish to help shape this
aural history. to gather up some of the pieces . i look to ideas as
to how to best make some of this history available . . . some early
talkshop talk that started the ball
rolling
both
"Stand Up Grenada" (the first film we made down there. Ellen
Ray and Bill Schaap) and GRENADA: The Future Coming
Towards Us (the last. w/ Carmen Asshurst, Samori Marksman, Larry
Bullard and more) will be available before long on DVD
thanks,
