one of the comments on this clip said “punk rock began at 3. 09″.
Could be.
But way deeper than that.
4 or 500 years at least.
Contemporary with Odetta, Lena, Miriam; compared with Billie .
God Mother to Gil Scott and Patti Smith.
Thankful for her work, memory, and presence.
The soul lives on.

ha, i was looking to put up this exact clip today! because that is SUCH an amazing performance, and just one of countless others. great post.
their 1960 record, We Insist!, is a landmark… music performed as a distillation of essence.
music performed as a distillation of essence..
spirit made flesh
flesh transports thought,
thought manifests as pure light into life beyond life
sacred sounds: chants,wind, water earth and sky.
yes,we do insist
complete justice for all,
the end to suffering.
