SoSaLa’s Thanksgiving Message
Today is Thanksgiving in my home country #4…L’America. So, I would like to “give my thanks” to ALL musicians in this country and worldwide who have been trying to be a positive, helpful, compassionate, loving, and caring force in their respective communities and nations for thousands of years.
Without a doubt, ALL people will agree that working musicians, including myself and my fellow members of Musicians For Musicians, Inc. – MFM, are ESSENTIAL WORKERS. We’re a particular workforce or business league that cares for people’s social-cultural-political wellness. We’re storytellers reminding them where we came from, what we’re going through NOW, and what could happen shortly.
So, all this said, let me thank the musicians’ community again for their excellent work, and I will continue to do so.
Counterculture? What Counterculture?

Music has always been a major part of any culture and counterculture. It always will be. This phenomenon is hard-wired into all human society. Music possesses the power to change a society’s character. The cultural upheavals of the United States during the 1960s are a perfect example of this.
