    That looks like Corey Harris to me. Can anyone confirm? And if Ry Cooder thinks an artist is worth recording with, I'll respect his opinion and give them a listen.

    Your broken record, that constantly abuses other people's identity to mask (actually expose) your weaknesses, is a gift to humanity?! But 1st mention of your G-A identity to shed light on your missed opportunites is racist?! You equated your G-A card to Afro-American identity to miserably justify your repeatedly proven racism and stupidity! Or do you believe the black slaves were snatched from an Oktoberfest in Munich to a jazz festival in New Orleans? Wouldn't be surprised!

    'm only answering TO your absurd fuss and continuously foolish provocations. Take it or stuff it! It's obvious your morbid idiocy and immorality consider your gratuitous insults and attacks on a dead man, whose heels you can never reach, as the greatest achievement of your life. As a German-American, you'd have reached for the stars. Don't blame yourself for the most basic skills you apparently lack aren't on sale at Walmart. Guns are!

    P.S. The link just exposes your lies.

    Good point, anyhow, this only proves that, inteligent and rightfully attention giving that calling Native Americans the First Americans, the truth is we can only call Americans (in the sense of US people) to people after the Revolution, and so there is no such thing as "true" and false Americans, and "true" Americans can be white, black, "brown-red", brown, "yellow", and it doesn't matter who were first, but it matters what all gave to the table, isn't it so?

    I heard on NPR today that al-Quaida has banned all music in the north part of Mali, even cell phone ring tones. It stunned me senseless that this could happen to the country whose music came to America on the ships so long ago and changed the world.

    well if you define America with the land yeah the true Americans are "red", but if you think that America was named after an Italian and the country normally just called American was founded by Anglo-Americans and Celtic-Americans the question becomes even more compliated: the true Americans are white but the true first inhabitants of "America" (which never called their land America or themselves Americans) weren't white. Interesting isn't it? :)
