Legend

Nearby, drained, workaday faces pass by: Working people with working class woe: Faces bent in suffering, near hopelessness, made indiscriminate rue. But turn on the car radio as the people pass by within earshot: Music escaping from the radio, Like the paradisal bird escaping from the Proverbial gilded cage: The otherworldly, mesmerisingly liberating rock, blues, jazz, and Poetry of the Doors; The antic, agonized meditations and harmonies, the unfettered idealism and Humanity, the driving, rocking rhythm of the songs of John Lennon; The rustic, soaring harmonies, the heartfelt, universal humanity of the "Cosmic American Music" of LA "rhinestone cowboy" Gram Parsons: Working class faces passing by, suddenly smiling, happy looking for The first time that day, Spirit enduring, Victory assured.
