Imagine...it's 1947 and the Muslims Are Out...So What?

Lots of talk...some not so well thought out...but what if...it's 1947 and the Muslims are out! What's the harm? There will be no Ray or Aretha as we know them...Zeppelin and CSNY are too egocentric and talented to be signed by anyone, Clapton has gone back to his Uncles farm and progressive rock is just too complicated for anyone to understand. Better think this one over Mr. Trump.  Ahmet's House, tonight at 7PM...'Cause I feel like I owe it, to someone.

Almost Cut My Hair---Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young

White Room---Cream
