about

The first six songs on this record capture the turmoil and unrest of the summer of 2020 from an observational perspective as events unfolded in Chicago and throughout the country (USA). Themes include a tribute to the mural "Prevent WWIII" in Chicago's Pilsen neighborhood, words from the US constitution juxtaposed with events of 2020, a summer night in June watching Puerto Rican parade revelers from the rooftop as police helicopters mobilize toward demonstrations/looting down town and listening to the police ban "Five O Radio" as riots and looting escalated. The last three songs include a tribute to NWI legend Roy Boy Cooper and a long awaited Burt Bacharach cover.
