Why my YouTube channel exists:

"I checked this album out from the Chicago Public Library in 1976 when I was nineteen. I lived in the Viceroy Hotel and after work I would spend hours listening to this parable over and over.

"Forty-eight years later now I still know it by heart.

"Thanks for posting!"
