Andere Infos:

The many facets of the USA are what makes up its greatness. To alienate any one of these facets is to cut our nose off in spite of itself. The perspective of one is as important as the perspective of the "whole". Let us pray for the individual who strives to be heard and great, and remember the many facets available to us.
Reverend Al Sharpton

Begutachtung:
 

When asked by Guild to do this disc, I was honoured and careful. I knew that this disc would be reflective of the times and my career as well as my own philosophy. I have centered my career around inclusiveness and compassion for my fellow man and woman. Therefore, I chose the repertoire mindful of how different the world is, and how this world perceives the United states of America. Mindful of slavery days in this country, I tried to consider the feelings of others, both negative and positive.
If one is in China, one realises that the songs of Nat King Cole are important. If you are visiting London such songs as ‘America’ ring clearly to the English. While visiting South Africa ,I did so realise the significance of ‘Go tell it on the mountain’ and ‘This little light of mine’. While in Russia I often heard the name of Duke Ellington and even Arthur Prysock! South Americans know well the "movement" of the African American, and ‘We shall overcome’. ‘Let us break bread together’ is familiar to the Germans, and of course ‘God

Bless America’. I remember Sherill Milnes singing this song with the ‘Boston Pops’ to the world of music in the seventies. While in the old Soviet Union the song entitled ‘Without a song’ was deep in their hearts as well as ‘September Song’ done by Ezio Pinza. The picture of Blacks all across the world singing ‘Kum ba Ya’ impresses me to no end. So, America means something different to many different people across the world and thank God for it. Americans are perceived differently everywhere and on this disc, I openly give my own perspective of American beauty. Here, From another American, you have a variety of perspectives seen by others. Here, From another American, you here from a voice seldom heard; A voice claiming the victory of mankind....A voice...’From Another American’. I invite the listener to interpret as she or he sees fit. Kevin Maynor
