The Hungarian Ambassador has some thoughts on the relationship between music and freedom, according to this article in the Akron Beacon-Journal. Andras Simonyi, Hungary’s ambassador to the U.S., heard rock ’n’ roll when the communists still ruled the country and he knew that it represented freedom. Good story about the relationship and music and politics. He will speak at the Rock ’n’ Roll Hall of Fame on Saturday night. By the way, the day with Ed Meese was terrific. What a good and smart man. It was great to see him again. We’ll have his speech up soon, in case you didn’t listen to it live.
