World 'A Reggae

our first offering for the 2009 Folk & Rock Fund-Raising Marathon. five days of Folk-five days of Rock.

there are two world-recoginzed icons in these days and times: the graphic renderings of Che Guevara, and any image of Bob Marley. we recognize how the images influence the world spirit.

From all points of the compass, reggae music erupts. here are two hours to illustrate.
