Into The Woods With Stewart Strauss (S3 E11) Celebrating Black Music Month!
Manage episode 311378615 series 3115469
Into The Woods With Stewart Strauss is celebrating Black Music Month with an eclectic blend of some of the most influential music and artists of the last one hundred years.
June was declared African American Music Appreciation Month in 1979, by President Jimmy Carter. This episode of #ITWWSS exemplifies some of the many contributions from Black artists and songwriters who have written, played and sang about their life experiences, then brought hope and joy through their truths and talents.
You’ll hear live music and studio recordings from… Ray Charles, Billie Holiday, Al Green, Sam Cooke, Pop Staples with Bonnie Raitt and Jackson Browne, Taj Mahal, The Pointer Sisters, Dianne Reeves, Al Jarreau with David Sanborn, Curtis Mayfield, Chaka Khan, Herbie Hancock, Cassandra Wilson, Cannonball Adderley with Joe Zawinul, Nina Simone, and Marvin Gaye.
I’m ecstatic that I get to share more of my personal (and in some cases, one of a kind and rare) music library with you.
