    If you want to hear some "liturgical jazz," there is Mary Lou Williams' Black Christ of the Andes. Below is a link to Gayle Murchison's study of the piece and a link to "St Martin de Porres" https://tools.bard.edu/wwwmedia/fisher-files/Murchison Mary Lou Williams.pdf

    Not the only president that Gene Simmons has visited. In 2012, he and his beautiful wife were in Peru, and they visited the Peruvian President Ollanta Humala. You can see part of the visit in the video below (in Spanish). Today, Humala is in jail in Peru.

    Has Rick Wakeman said anything about the 4-disc boxset? His comments about Tales from Topographic are usually unfriendly.

    RIP, I still remember arriving to Austin decades ago and seeing Jimmy Cliff painted on a wall across the street from UT-Austin. The painting is still there. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cj4qdren425o
