HAPPY COLUMBUS DAY: A PRIMER FROM RANDY NEWMAN Having just returned from NYC I was confronted by the importance of this holiday-one whos personal relevance and grandeur is lost on many west coasters. As I often seek to glean knowledge and understanding from music, I searched high and low for an appropriate soundtrack, Thankfully Randy Newman came to the rescue -and continues in the vein of his life life-affirming songs like Youve Got a Friend In Me and We Belong Together from the heart warming Toy Story movies. I share this hoping you too will also find a rich musical appreciation of the roots of manifest destiny underpinned with a warm embrace and understanding of our shared heritage. Let the pride begin to swell! The Great Nations OF Europe https://youtube/watch?v=ua0pR06pevU
