A real gem.

No one really needs to say much more about this song. It still resounds today. I wanted to publish it here today because of the new 3 Strikes Law that was passed.  (check out Peter’s posting over at the Undercurrent click here.)  Len Chandler was born in 1935 in Akron, Ohio. He received a B.A. in Music Education from the University of Akron and a M.A. from Columbia. Chandler learned to play the guitar and played around Washington Square Park and landed a gig at the Gaslight Cafe. In the early 1960s Chandler began to be involved in the Civil Rights Movement and much of his material was related to the Black Panther Party.  A thank you to Len Chandler. Check more of Chandler out on you tube. His song Beans In Your Ears should be sung by everyone no matter what age. Try it here
