Authentic music release double CD of Harold Rayford

Director Bernard Shakey (aka Neil Young) blends a concert movie with a political documentary in this Sundance favorite. Fellow icons David Crosby, Stephen Stills, and Graham Nash join Young to reunite the classic CSNY lineup, and they prove that you're never too old to raise hell. On their appropriately named 'Freedom of Speech 2006' tour, the musicians perform songs from Young's protest song-filled LIVING WITH WAR album and receive a number of different reactions to their controversial playlist.

Paris, France - Les Frères Guissé, three Senegalese brothers with beautiful voices and a musical gift, recently released their fifth album, ‘Yakaar,’ (meaning ‘Hope’ in Peulh, a Senegalese language) on the label Mon Slip. While this is the group’s fifth album, it is the first available worldwide, after three albums released in Africa and one available in Holland.

Les Frères Guissé have been touring the world ...
