The Way I See It #285

Let’s do a better job of exposing the children to our rich musical history, so they know more than hip-hop samples of artists like Curtis Mayfield, Jackie Wilson and Billy Preston. Help them appreciate Duke Ellington and his peers, like Count Basie, for being more than lyrics in a “back in the day” Stevie Wonder song.

Today’s order: grande red eye (which was actually a black eye b/c the barista gave me both shots - thank you!)
