Nice one!

"Music is ours … it is us … and like us it is always here … surrounding us … like the infinite particles that make up life, it cannot be seen … but can only be felt … like life!" - Malcolm X, whose storied life was tragically cut short 61 years ago on February 21, 1965

Go, already. Just... go.
