I'm writing this two weeks after the murder of #georgefloyd. We all know that this shit goes on all the time and that being Black in America is dangerous, to say the least. I pick the order of releases like a DJ picking records on a show. It's a playlist. And hopefully if you listen in chronological order by release date it flows. So, Oz Noy was last and I thought okay, let's bring it back to the roots, seeing this is a blues series...so I cull through the 135 unreleased mastered tracks that we currently have and I come to #jamesarmstrong and it speaks to me. It hits me not just because it is a more traditional #blues number, it's soulful, understated, classic, it is all of the above...but it also strikes a strong but melancholy chord, without words it says that thing that we all know, that life as a Black person in America is and has always been dangerous and systematically unfair. Then, coincidentally, I see James has posted a video on Facebook telling his #truth in response to George Floyd's murder sharing just a few of the countless injustices that he (James) has experienced at the hands of law enforcement. And I just keep hearing the words "enough is enough" in my head. No explanation necessary, right? So, after checking in with James to make sure that he was cool with me titling the track Enough Is Enough (considering the context I wanted to err on the side of thoughtfulness and consideration), here it is. There are a lot of organizations that need financial support right now as well as "thoughts and prayers" and social media post. Please put your money where your good intentions are! #m4bl #needtoknow #blues #guitar #instrumental #blm #enoughisenough #alvinobennett #richkirch #jackendino #trueeastmastering #funkwrench (at Capitola, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CB0797ChQbx/?igshid=mh4s0t0nelfi
