LAY DOWN (Candles In The Rain) FULL RECORDING Melanie & The Edwin Hawkins Singers ('70) In tribute to Peter Schekeryk (the Record Man), creator of this 8-minute record. Peter made the call to Edwin Hawkins, leader of the gospel group. They had just come off their hit "Oh Happy Day." Peter was in high gear talking Edwin Hawkinsโ€™s ear off. Then out of nowhere he said, โ€œHere....Melanie wants to talk to you.โ€ I looked at him in horror as I put the phone to my ear. Earlier I had said, โ€œPeter, wouldn't it be great if the Edwin Hawkins Singers sang on Candles In The Rain?" He was off and running. He orchestrated the whole thing. We flew out to Oakland, California where they were rehearsing in a high school gym. They only do nonsecular music, I thoughtโ€ฆcouldnโ€™t believe he got me into this! When we walked in they were in the middle of a song. They trailed off and all looked at me. A white girl with a guitar and a wildly gesticulating man standing next to her. Peter ran up to Edwin Hawkins who was playing the piano. What I'm certain of is that he wasn't apologizing for barging in on their rehearsal. I thought Peter had prearranged this meeting. Apparently it was a surprise visit! So in this spirit of ("I wish I could crawl under a seat and hide") I sang my heart out on a solo version of โ€œLay Down.โ€ When I got to the second chorus, the Edwin Hawkins Singers joined in. The rest is, as they say, history. https://www.patreon.com/MelanieSafka

Workers harvesting marigolds

Farmworkers in Oxnard, CA are harvesting marigolds just in time for #DiaDeLosMuertos. The marigold is sometimes called Flor de Muerto (โ€œFlower of the Deadโ€). These flowers are thought to attract the souls of the dead to the offerings and ensure eternal peace.

Joe Rogan Experience #2392 - John Kiriakou John Kiriakou is a former CIA counter-terrorism officer and the first U.S. official to confirm the agency's torture of detainees. Punished for being a whistleblower, he served nearly 2 years in a federal prison. https://www.johnkiriakou.com Buy 1 Get 1 Free Trucker Hat with code ROGAN at https://happydad.com

Stoked to watch and hear @johnkiriakou.bsky.social tell his amazing stories on #JoeRogan. John speaks for a growing group of U.S. citizens demanding truth, accountability, or simple fairness โ€” seeking equanimity, then end up targeted by the state in nightmare scenarios.
