I Wish I Knew How It Feels To Be Free (Live) – Nina Simone (by king689soulclassics)
Happy 4th of July! What does freedom mean to you? These days, my ideas about freedom are centered more around economics. But also state of mind.
“My American Dream Sounds Like Nina Simone”
Happy 4th of July. I found this piece today on NPR. Nearly every gay man my age (50+) knows and loves the music of Nina Simone. It’s defiance, and it’s message of freedom and justice, resonate with our age group, who’ve had our own struggles for freedom and justice.
Nightclub promoters AJ Gonzalez, Jesse Lee Oberst, and Walter Gomez, at the Powerhouse. It was steamier than a Bangkok sauna the night this pic was taken, at “Steam”, Walter’s once a month Friday club. Featuring clothes check and towel, $100 wet towel contest, the power-shower, sweaty go-go boys, dollar a minute massages, drink specials, hot and horny men out for a Friday night cheap thrill, and a super cruisy back room. SF CA.
