This past summer I met Jes Richardson at a local festival in San Geronimo, with his amazing Gandhi puppet, and he told me about the bridge he's building between the hearts of Americans and the hearts of Iranians, and the film that he and film maker Scott Calhoun have in the works. I simply had to lay the latest CD on him, since one of the better lines in the title cut is a nod to Gandhi's amazing contribution to India (and the world, for that matter). Months later, when he and Scott contacted me asking to use some of the music for their film in progress, I was delighted, and the rest is history unfolding. He hopes to get to Iran later this year. Don't you love it? People NOT mired in politics and hand-me-down baggage of agendas and prejudices.
