Jesse Jackson at Wattstax:
At a collar a ticket, the seven-hour session of rock and rap was the best deal in town. Any town. Ticket sales benefitted the Sickle Cell Anemia Foundation, the Martin Luther King Hospital in Watts and future Watts Summer Festivals. Singer Kim Weston climbed the stairs to a central stage and began "Wattstax" with a rocking national anthem. No response at-nobody stood up saluted or even acknowledged what she was calmly crooning about. Then she ripped into the Black National Anthem. People shot out of their seats, raised clenched fists and fervently screamed along with her. And that was just the beginning. Reverend Jesse Jackson bounded on stage and took the microphone for the National Black Litany. "I AM SOMEBODY" , he screamed. AM SOMEBODY" , he screamed louder. Sweat poured down his multi- colored dashiki as he strutted around the stage When the Staple Singers strolled on stage, people suddenly became quiet-almost reverent. There was very little clapping, snap- Wattstax concert album Inner gatefold of album with color pics of performers, including Albert King, Isaac Hayes, more WORD Side One THE STAPLE SINGERS *Oh La De Da I Like the Things About Me Respect Yourself I'll Take You There EDDIE FLOYD Knock on Wood *Lay Your Loving on Me Side Two CARLA THOMAS I Like What You're Doing (To Me) Gee Whiz O Have a God Who Loves RUFUS THOMAS The Breakdown Do the Funky Chicken Do the Funky Penguin Side Three THE BAR-KAYS Son of Shaft /Feel It I Can't Turn You Loose ALBERT KING Killing Floor I'll Play the Blues For You Angel of Mercy Side Four THE SOUL CHILDREN I Don't Know What This World Is Coming To Hearsay ISAAC HAYES Ain't No Sunshine Produced By: Al Bell Production Asst: Terry Manning, Tom Nixon, Betty Crutcher, Mack Rice Recording Supervision: Dave Purple & Tom Nixon Recording Engineers: Pete Bishop, William Brown, Dave Purple, Tom Scott,

That shows how taking 15 years to build a train line means extra costs are spent building infrastructure that we turn out not to need.

At King Albert Park, the space may possibly be reused for the greater space needed to handle passengers switching to the CRL.

Det hjælper mig altid at høre “Born under a bad sign” hvis det hele er lidt op ad pakke. Albert King har trods alt lidt mere at slås med

No. I hold the guitar like a lefty, so the cut is closest to the floor. My fret hand is my right hand, like all lefties. But I also play with the guitar strung righty, Albert King-style, high e on top.
