Sunrises are ACTION PHOTOGRAPHY!!

Here's some music from Ferde Grofé.

My Dad must have had this suite on an LP because I remember every note.

Grand Canyon Suite: Sunrise.

I chose the one without fancy pictures.
Why compete with the great George McGovern?

Boots Randolph, a great performance.




And have a kick-ass day!
