Jazz pianist Robert Glasper plays an original composition "Enoch's Meditation," with narrative from Martin Luther King's 1966 "We Shall Overcome" speech, Barack Obama's presidential election night victory speech from Grant Park in Chicago, audio from Dr. Cornel West, and a spontaneous piano reharmonization of the presidential anthem, "Hail to the Chief." This performance was recorded January 14th at WBGO Studios in Newark, New Jersey. Produced by Josh Jackson. Mix by Josh Webb, with assistance from David Tallacksen. Happy Inauguration 2009, from the jazz community!

    There is songs that you listen to, like, and forget about after some time. And there is songs like this. Songs that sound like there is no other way to arrange the notes on a piece of paper. Songs that sound like they have ever been there, and will ever be. To me, this is one of these songs. Damn Robert Glasper makes me spiritual!

    "Senseless Vietnam war"? Senseless? I think you better study the Vietnam war from the South Vietnamese perspective before you go spouting words like 'senseless'. Start with Neil Davis on YouTube and then "June 24 1979 Vietnamese Boat People - The Price of Freedom". Maybe you can find some parallels between South Korea and South Vietnam and North Korea and North Vietnam.

    That'd be great if you credited the two other musicians too.
