This one charted at #27 in the U.S. and #40 in Canada … and nowhere else, as best I can find out. I went with the live version tonight … the studio version has a bit better sound quality, but … I was in the mood to ‘see’ as well as ‘hear’. And thank you, Keith, for your three excellent suggestions! You’ve helped me out this week!!! Got any more? 😊

“I am one of the 7 billion human beings alive today. We each have a responsibility to think about humanity and the good of the world because it affects our own future. We weren’t born on this planet at this time to create problems but to bring about some benefit.”

More than 40 Planet Fitness locations across the country have received bomb threats after a conservative movement against the gym’s trans-inclusive locker room policy went viral online.
In the weeks since the backlash against the gym chain started in March, at least 43 locations in Connecticut, Florida, Alabama and other states have received bomb threats, according to progressive media watchdog group Media Matters

There is a remarkable bit of film, taken some time in 1939 or 1940, from the New York World’s Fair. It is silent, in color and features numerous couples, black and white but mostly all female, swing dancing and fox trotting to the music of Glen Gray and the Casa Loma Orchestra. It comes from a wonderful series of amateur films taken by a fellow named Medicus that documents nearly all aspects of the Fair.

Baisakhi, observed on the 13th of April annually, carries deep cultural and religious significance, especially within the Sikh community. It’s a lively celebration marking both the harvest festival in Punjab and the inception of the Khalsa community by Guru Gobind Singh in 1699.
The day commences with worshippers gathering at gurdwaras for special prayers and joining colourful processions known as Nagar Kirtan. Festivities include traditional music, dances like Bhangra and Gidda, and lavish feasts.
Every year on April 13th, Amritsar hosts a lively fair commemorating Baisakhi at Sri Harmandir Sahib Gurdwara (Golden Temple), drawing thousands from near and far.
A short distance away from the Golden Temple complex is a spacious park, Jallianwalla Bagh, where on April 13, 1919, thoudands of people had gathered to celebrate Baisakhi, and also to peacefully protest the repressive Rowlatt Act, and the arrest of two nationalist leaders, Satya Pal and Saifuddin Kitchlew.
Unexpectedly, Brigadier General Reginald Dyer, acting on the directive of Lieutenant Governor of Punjab, Michael O’Dwyer, led British forces into the park. With no prior warning to disperse, he commanded his troops to open fire on the unarmed gathering.

Jallianwala Bagh had only one exit, the other three sides being enclosed by walls. After positioning his troops to block the sole exit, Dyer ordered them to shoot at the crowd, persisting in firing even as the protestors attempted to escape.

The tragic event claiming 379 lives and injuring 2000 ignited intense anger among Indians, prompting a harsh response from the government. Newspapers were censored, and their editors imprisoned, reminiscent of the oppressive measures taken after the 1857 revolt.
The lacklustre investigation, coupled with initial praise for Dyer, fueled widespread resentment toward the British, culminating in the non-cooperation movement of 1920. The event marked a pivotal moment in India’s contemporary narrative, propelling Gandhi towards wholehearted dedication to Indian nationalism and independence from British rule.
Their sacrifice will always remain etched in the heart of every Indian. I had the privilege to visit this holy place and to pay homage to the martyrs of Jallianwala Bagh massacre…

From the very first time I heard them, I loved Earth Wind & Fire. They threw every genre into the mix, combining Disco with Funk and Soul, even a hint of Jazz or a big power ballad, sometimes in the same song.
To watch them on video was a delight. They had so many band members and backing singers on stage, there was so much going on to see. I really wish I had seen them live.
In 1979, this song became a favourite with Disco fans, and Soul fans too. Forty-five years later, I reckon it is still fantastic.
The lyrics are on the video.
