Link of the Day

Curtis Mayfield - Don't Worry (If There's a Hell Below, We're All Gonna Go) / Marvin Gaye - What's Going On?

I don't think we need to spend much time talking about the Pittsburgh synagogue attacks or the attempted bombings of the previous week. They are evil acts all too well-covered by others. Instead, as the start of a week of music, here are two songs from a similarly troubled time. First, there's Curtis Mayfield's "Don't Worry (If There's Hell Below, We're All Gonna Go)" (note: this song has a couple choice words at the beginning). Second, there's Marvin Gaye's "What's Going On?" Enjoy, say a prayer for Pittsburgh, and don't get pulled into evil.
