Yes, The Audience Is So Important To Negro Music, Especially The Element Of Call And Response.

Music Is A Language, And It's Like A Dictionary That Has A Lot Of Words, But If You Limited Yourself To A Couple Of Definitions You Would Be Illiterate.

Music And Culture Are Intrinsically Improvisational, Existential.

A Whole Generation Of Young Whites Have Involved Themselves With Traditional Negro Music.
