Opus 56 - The Honorable Violinist

Did you know that Minister Louis Farrakhan is a violinist? After 42 years of focusing on his ministry, Mr. Farrakhan returned to the stage back in 1993, which marked the beginning of the all-Black Gateways Music Festival, and the continued conversations concerning his controversial persona. Garrett and Scott explore this with Amanda Cook from I Care If You Listen, and with Caroline Jones, who helped make that historic event possible. The guys also honor the late Ennio Morricone, and address listener feedback concerning "roots" music. Playlist: Ennio Morricone - Once Upon a Time in the West/The Hateful Eight; Judd Greenstein - "Change"; Felix Mendelssohn - Violin Concerto in e minor
