| [00:02] | What kind of music do you really want to make, | |
| [00:04] | Ms. Franklin? | |
| [00:06] | I want to make hits, Mr. Wexler. | |
| [00:08] | You’ll get there when you realize you’re | |
| [00:09] | Aretha Franklin and nobody else. | |
| [00:13] | I can help you find your sound, that’s what I do. | |
| [00:16] | I’d like to join your tour, Dr. King. | |
| [00:18] | We’d love to have you. | |
| [00:20] | Detroit needs its favorite daughter now. | |
| [00:22] | Your daughter is a start of international prominence, | |
| [00:24] | that comes with a certain responsibility. | |
| [00:26] | Why is there a second crib here with | |
| [00:27] | CL’s name on it? | |
| [00:29] | Oh, I’m sure it’s just a mistake. | |
| [00:31] | I always had suspicions but at your core, | |
| [00:35] | I thought you were a good, loving man. | |
| [00:37] | Her mother deserted the family and died; | |
| [00:39] | our mother never deserted us. | |
| [00:42] | How the hell did he know all this shit? | |
| [00:43] | Did you speak to him by yourself? | |
| [00:44] | He called me, yeah. | |
| [00:46] | He was only acting friendly and you feel for it? | |
| [00:47] | We all fell for it. | |
| [00:49] | You know he don’t treat you right. | |
| [00:50] | He never has. | |
| [00:52] | You think you need him, | |
| [00:53] | but he knows deep inside you don’t. | |
| [00:55] | Look, we’ve been through a lot of stuff, | |
| [00:57] | we always make it through. | |
| [00:58] | Not this time. | |
| [00:59] | You have one choice; you can leave, or I can. | |
| [01:02] | You need me, Re. | |
| [01:03] | Hell I do. | |

| [01:30] | This is what I’m thinking for my album cover. | |
| [01:32] | Baby Dynamite, it’s gorgeous. | |
| [01:39] | Any chance you’d write the liner notes? | |
| [01:41] | It’d be a help. | |
| [01:43] | Is Erma still mad that I released | |
| [01:45] | “Son of a Preacher Man”? | |
| [01:46] | Well, you did say you weren’t going to release it. | |
| [01:48] | Well, she recorded it and it didn’t chart. | |
| [01:49] | And now she feels like you stole her thunder. | |
| [01:55] | This is a crazy business, | |
| [01:57] | we all just out here trying to make it. | |
| [01:59] | A riot broke out today in | |
| [02:01] | California Soledad State Prison. | |
| [02:03] | All right, I’ll write your liner notes, | |

| [02:07] | Three Negro inmates, while engaged in, | |
| [02:08] | what several reports say was a fistfight, | |
| [02:10] | were shot and killed by prison guards. | |
| [02:12] | Some think the violence is related to the racially | |
| [02:15] | charged riots that have rocked several American cities | |
| [02:19] | over the past few years. | |
| [02:21] | – Let me turn this off. – Don’t. | |
| [02:22] | Most notably in the months of 1967. | |
| [02:24] | The world is going crazy, | |
| [02:26] | but you can only do so much. | |
| [02:28] | Well, the least I can do is listen. | |
| [02:29] | Mass incarceration, racial injustice; | |
| [02:33] | it just makes me want to holler. | |
| [02:34] | I hear that. | |
| [02:36] | But you always getting tangled up in other people’s messes. | |
| [02:39] | Don’t. | |
| [02:41] | They shoot us down like dogs; | |
| [02:45] | like our lives ain’t worth nothing. | |
| [02:51] | I’m going to record a protest album. | |
| [02:54] | It’s time to take a stand. | |
| [03:43] | Well, Re, you wanted to meet the man who | |
| [03:45] | made my medallion. | |
| [03:46] | Ken Cunningham meet my sister Aretha Franklin. | |
| [03:48] | Pleasure to meet you. | |
| [03:49] | It’s an honor. | |
| [03:51] | I’ll leave you two. | |
| [03:52] | Shall we sit? | |
| [03:53] | Sounds good. | |
| [03:58] | These are your designs? | |
| [03:59] | Yes, ma’am. | |
| [04:01] | Our designers are brothers and sisters who work | |
| [04:03] | with jewelers and seamstresses in Harlem. | |
| [04:06] | Everything is gorgeous. | |
| [04:08] | Yes, indeed. | |
| [04:09] | Gorgeous, comfortable, and instep with the time. | |
| [04:12] | Now, we going to be in runways and magazines, | |
| [04:14] | and we’ve got good word of mouth. | |
| [04:16] | And now you need investors. | |
| [04:18] | Cecil says that you’re a self-made businessman who is | |
| [04:21] | socially conscious. | |
| [04:22] | Well, thank you, Cecil. | |
| [04:23] | Well, I like to empower people, | |
| [04:26] | but I have to thoroughly checkup on people before | |
| [04:27] | I meet them. | |
| [04:29] | Well, I certainly hope I rate. | |
| [04:30] | So far. | |
| [04:32] | Could I have a scotch, please? | |
| [04:34] | Just water for me, thanks. | |
| [04:38] | Hey, I have a gift for you. | |
| [04:39] | If you would allow me to flip to the back page. | |
| [04:43] | Ah, this, this is from Ghana. | |
| [04:46] | Now, if you look here the white symbolizes goodness and | |
| [04:49] | the gold is for prosperity. | |
| [04:52] | I thought it would be perfect for you. | |
| [04:57] | Thank you. | |
| [04:58] | You’ve got to come to the studio, | |
| [04:59] | see how I run my business. | |
| [05:10] | And after that, I come in. | |
| [05:11] | You got it? | |
| [05:14] | ARIF, I know I’ve been talking a mile a minute, | |
| [05:16] | are you getting everything down? | |
| [05:18] | Just like you laid it out for me, | |
| [05:19] | hot off the press. | |
| [05:24] | Billy, can you give us more feel? | |
| [05:26] | I’ll take us all to church. | |
| [05:28] | Cornell, I want you to keep it greasy. | |
| [05:29] | Deep fried and laid to the side. | |
| [05:33] | And, Chuck and Ray won’t rush. | |
| [05:35] | – I’m in. – Copy that. | |
| [05:39] | Ladies? | |
| [05:40] | Oh, we’re good to go. | |
| [05:43] | Wait a minute, wait a minute. | |
| [05:45] | Okay, let’s take it from the top. | |
| [05:47] | Going to make a hit. | |

| [06:14] | There was a pizza box on the piano, where is it? | |
| [06:16] | What, you want to order dinner, or? | |
| [06:17] | It makes the piano sound different. | |
| [06:23] | – Sorry. – Chop, chop. | |

| [09:51] | I’m writing a new song. | |

| [09:54] | I don’t know yet but it’s, | |
| [09:55] | it’s going to hit you hard, | |
| [09:58] | get under your skin right down to the bone. | |
| [10:00] | I’m loving it already. | |
| [10:02] | Right on. | |
| [10:05] | It’s going to be a protest song. | |
| [10:07] | The message is going to be there but it’s going | |
| [10:08] | to be quiet. | |
| [10:10] | It’s going to be fun to dance to. | |
| [10:12] | Subversive. | |
| [10:13] | Yeah, that’s right. | |
| [10:15] | Anybody aside from me follow what’s going on over | |
| [10:17] | there in Soledad? | |
| [10:19] | Angela Davis speaking out? | |
| [10:21] | Cause the incarceration has been unjust | |
| [10:23] | and unwarranted from jump. | |
| [10:27] | Angela Davis has my vote. | |
| [10:29] | Maybe you could do a concert at Folsom. | |
| [10:31] | Johnny Cash did and B. B. King is planning to do one. | |
| [10:33] | I also like that idea about the Fillmore. | |
| [10:35] | It’s nice to know that the world doesn’t | |
| [10:37] | turn off when the signer starts telling it like it is. | |
| [10:39] | I’d sing any gig. | |
| [10:42] | I miss the energy of the audience. | |
| [10:44] | I’ll work on it. | |
| [10:46] | Okay. | |
| [10:47] | Just a reminder that music is a business, all right. | |
| [10:51] | What do you think pays for your vacation home? | |
| [10:53] | Or my boat in Miami? | |
| [10:55] | Hit records do. | |
| [10:56] | All right. | |
| [10:58] | So, my protest album’s going to be a hit. | |
| [11:00] | Okay. | |
| [11:01] | I’ll tell you what, | |
| [11:02] | if you can’t get your head around this concept album, | |
| [11:04] | Jerry, I, I’ll produce it myself. | |
| [11:06] | Okay. | |
| [11:09] | Oh, oh, oh. | |
| [11:12] | You okay? | |
| [11:15] | Mm-hmm. | |
| [11:16] | I’m just trying to be the voice of reason, | |
| [11:18] | is that a crime? | |
| [11:20] | Nope. | |
| [11:28] | So, Ken, was it? | |
| [11:31] | You two talk politics a lot? | |
| [11:34] | Well, no, Mr. Wexler. | |
| [11:36] | I ain’t putting no ideas in her head if that’s what | |
| [11:38] | you was thinking. | |
| [12:48] | I’m going to call my album | |
| [12:49] | Young, Gifted and Black. | |
| [12:50] | That’s the title of Nina Simone’s hit song. | |
| [12:52] | And Hansberry’s hit play. | |
| [12:53] | Mm-hmm. | |
| [12:55] | Okay, now you want to be like Nina Simone. | |
| [12:57] | Can I remind everybody that Nina Simone is a head case? | |
| [13:00] | Can I remind you that Nina Simone fired | |
| [13:01] | her record label? | |
| [13:02] | You know why? | |
| [13:04] | Because she wanted to do what the hell she wanted to. | |
| [13:05] | And maybe I might fire you, Jerry, | |
| [13:08] | so I could do whatever the hell I want to do. | |
| [13:10] | Because, you know, you don’t own me. | |
| [13:13] | You know that? | |
| [13:16] | Cause I’m free. | |
| [13:18] | You’re drunk. | |
| [13:19] | I’m free. | |
| [13:21] | You hear me? | |
| [13:22] | I am free. | |

| [14:08] | In response to events at the | |
| [14:10] | California prison where inmates have been charged with | |
| [14:11] | the retaliation killing of a prison guard, | |
| [14:15] | Professor Angela Davis has joined the Soledad Brothers | |
| [14:18] | Defense Committee to advocate for the negro prisoners. | |
| [14:23] | This demonstration was organized by | |
| [14:25] | the Soledad Brothers Defense Committee in order to | |
| [14:29] | bring to light, to the public, | |
| [14:34] | the face of the Soledad Brothers and | |
| [14:36] | in order to begin to move on changing the oppressive | |
| [14:41] | conditions in the penal system of the States. | |
| [14:50] | Well, you know the way to a man’s heart, I see. | |
| [14:54] | So, you like my pig’s feet ala Re. | |
| [14:57] | I must admit I’ve never been offered pig feet at a | |
| [15:01] | business meeting before. | |
| [15:02] | Well, see, you wanted to take me to Silvia’s, | |
| [15:04] | and I say why go outside for something you can get at home. | |
| [15:10] | Now, I hope you don’t mind me asking, | |
| [15:13] | who picks your songs? | |
| [15:15] | I do. | |
| [15:16] | I hear something I want, and I give the idea to the | |
| [15:18] | guys and I pick the musicians, | |
| [15:20] | I pick the singers, | |
| [15:21] | and Jerry has input too, so does Tom. | |
| [15:23] | But I can’t sing something I don’t feel so I have to | |
| [15:26] | arrange it so I can feel it. | |
| [15:28] | Mmm, but what does the other guy do? | |
| [15:30] | – Arif? – Mm-hmm. | |
| [15:32] | He’s a producer, a great producer. | |
| [15:35] | Well, sounds like you’re the producer, too. | |
| [15:38] | No, I’m the artist. | |
| [15:39] | I’m the talent. | |
| [15:41] | Well, no, from what you just described it sounds like | |
| [15:42] | you’re calling the shots, you’re running the show, | |
| [15:45] | you’re making the arrangements, | |
| [15:47] | you’re setting up the music. | |
| [15:48] | You deserve a producer credit too, sugar. | |
| [15:51] | You’re thinking what I’m thinking. | |
| [15:52] | Yeah, the movement starts at home with you, Re. | |
| [15:56] | You’ve got to claim your power. | |
| [15:58] | Well, all right, um, tomorrow… | |
| [16:02] | Uh-huh. | |
| [16:04] | I’m going to walk into Jerry’s office. | |
| [16:05] | Okay. | |
| [16:06] | I’m going to roll up my sleeves. | |
| [16:08] | I can dig it. | |
| [16:09] | All right. I’m going to puff up my chest. | |
| [16:11] | – Uh-huh. Yeah. – And I will say Jerry. | |
| [16:13] | I am a producer. | |
| [16:14] | Aretha Franklin is now a producer. | |
| [16:16] | Get down! | |
| [16:17] | Yes. | |
| [16:19] | I tell you; I would pay top dollar to be able | |
| [16:21] | to be in there to see them uppity honkey’s face | |
| [16:23] | when you say that. | |
| [16:24] | Me too. | |
| [16:27] | That would be something, I tell you. | |
| [16:34] | Now, I try not to listen to everything I hear but the word | |
| [16:38] | is you’re still married… | |
| [16:41] | Well, the word is wrong. I’m getting divorced. | |
| [16:44] | Well, the word is quite similar to my word because | |
| [16:47] | I’m getting a divorce, too. | |
| [16:49] | Oh, very good to know. | |
| [16:50] | That wouldn’t stop anything now would it? | |
| [16:52] | Absolutely not. | |
| [16:55] | Well, I happen to be very, very serious, | |
| [17:00] | just so you know. | |
| [17:19] | – You’re my heart. – And you’re mine. | |
| [17:21] | Mmmm. Love you. | |
| [17:24] | Love you, too. Is it past my bedtime yet? | |
| [17:28] | Yes. | |
| [17:29] | Your brother and sisters are already in bed. | |
| [17:31] | Go on, head on upstairs. | |
| [17:33] | Where’s my favorite women folk who make me | |
| [17:35] | the most blessed man in the whole, wide world. | |
| [17:40] | I’ll see you later. | |
| [17:43] | Are you planning your pastor’s anniversary? | |
| [17:45] | Yes, I am, with Sister Helen and a few others. | |
| [17:48] | It’s not too bad for a little country preacher | |
| [17:51] | now running a big Detroit, Michigan church. | |
| [17:54] | New Bethel is blessed to have you. | |
| [17:55] | They’ve improved themselves quite a bit since | |
| [17:57] | you took over. | |
| [17:58] | Indeed, they have. | |
| [18:00] | I’ll see you later. | |
| [18:02] | You going to wait up for me? | |
| [18:05] | I’ll have something for you. | |
| [18:07] | Little Re, I’ll see you later. | |
| [18:08] | Bye, Daddy. | |
| [18:10] | Can I stay up ’til Daddy comes back? | |
| [18:12] | He won’t be back until late. | |
| [18:17] | But can I wait up with you? | |
| [18:19] | I’d like that. | |
| [18:44] | What’s Daddy doing? | |
| [18:47] | Oh. | |
| [19:10] | Mommy? Mom? | |
| [19:20] | Mommy, can I help you? | |
| [19:21] | No, sweetie, just sit down and stay quiet. | |
| [19:23] | Where are we going? | |

| [23:56] | Thank you. | |
| [24:00] | Detroit PD, step out of the car | |
| [24:02] | Now, you know this is an illegal search. | |
| [24:03] | Come on now, this is an illegal search. | |
| [24:05] | You ran a stop sign. | |
| [24:06] | Ya’ll need to call somebody and you ain’t need to | |
| [24:07] | come here and get me. | |
| [24:08] | What did I do? | |
| [24:09] | Keep your hands visible, sir. | |
| [24:11] | It’s because I’m, it’s because I’m CL Franklin, huh, | |
| [24:13] | Aretha Franklin’s father you going to do that to me. | |
| [24:16] | This is ridiculous. | |
| [24:17] | Oh, see now you done planted that. | |
| [24:19] | You done planted that. | |
| [24:21] | You don’t never want to see a black person succeed. | |
| [24:23] | You’re always trying to drag us down. | |
| [24:25] | You know this ain’t right. | |
| [24:27] | I, I like your haircut. It suits you. | |
| [24:29] | Thank you. | |
| [24:30] | But you’ve been AWOL for two whole months. | |
| [24:34] | I’ve been dealing with family stuff. | |
| [24:35] | My dad was in jail, I had to bail him out. | |
| [24:37] | Yeah, I heard. | |
| [24:39] | Black people everywhere from my, | |
| [24:40] | my father to the Soledad Brothers are under the thumb | |
| [24:42] | of a system that’s completely rigged. | |
| [24:44] | That’s what I’ve been focusing on. | |
| [24:49] | The hypocrisy of justice, | |
| [24:50] | black folks can’t get a fair shake. | |
| [24:53] | I hear ya. | |
| [24:55] | Is your dad going to be all right? | |
| [24:56] | He always lands on his feet. | |
| [24:58] | You know, supporting Dr. King was one thing but | |
| [25:03] | I don’t know, these times feel more risky. | |
| [25:08] | You know, Nina recorded “Mississippi God Damn”, | |
| [25:11] | a great song, but then the radio stations boycotted her, | |
| [25:15] | and the people went into the record stores and they smashed | |
| [25:17] | her albums to bits. | |
| [25:20] | I’m not drinking. | |
| [25:25] | Look, make me a producer on my new album. | |
| [25:28] | Let the world, everywhere, read in the trades that | |
| [25:30] | Atlantic has named Aretha Franklin a producer on | |
| [25:33] | Young, Gifted and Black. | |
| [25:37] | Okay. | |
| [25:39] | I’ll think about that. | |
| [25:40] | But three sessions in a row I organized for you on | |
| [25:43] | dates that you chose, and you missed them all. | |
| [25:46] | And last year you were a no show in Las Vegas | |
| [25:49] | at Caesar’s Palace for crying out loud. | |
| [25:51] | And how much did that cost you? | |
| [25:53] | 100-grand, 100-grand. | |
| [25:56] | And Ruth says she’s got to jump through hoops to book | |
| [25:59] | you cause people say you are a problem. | |
| [26:01] | People are just bad mouthing me to try and | |
| [26:02] | keep me in my place. | |
| [26:04] | And what are you doing to prove them wrong? | |
| [26:05] | Give me a real seat at the table and I can | |
| [26:07] | show you how I can prove them wrong. | |
| [26:08] | Aretha, you’re out there acting like a hot head. | |
| [26:11] | You’re worrying about these young men in jail when you | |
| [26:12] | should be worrying about the bottom line. | |
| [26:15] | In, in what universe are you a producer? | |
| [26:17] | I do all the work. | |
| [26:18] | You don’t know half of what I do. | |
| [26:20] | Well, I do know that I deserve more credit and | |
| [26:22] | that you are standing in my way. | |
| [26:24] | I’m standing, I’m… | |
| [26:27] | Look, I’m glad you’re laying off the sauce and I’m very | |
| [26:31] | glad you’re back. | |
| [26:33] | But you like me better when I’m drinking, don’t you? | |
| [26:35] | No, I don’t. And that’s not fair. | |
| [26:38] | If I don’t get what I need from you, | |
| [26:40] | I’m going to find a way to get it myself. | |
| [26:44] | I’m gonna do what I gotta do. | |

| [35:33] | justice at all. | |
| [35:34] | Not because I believe in communism but because she is a | |
| [35:37] | black woman who believes in the freedom of black people. | |
| [35:39] | I intend to use all my money and power that my people have | |
| [35:42] | given to me to free Angela. | |
| [35:45] | Are you afraid of alienating your fans? | |
| [35:46] | Are you advocating violence | |
| [35:47] | against the establishment? | |
| [35:49] | I have said all I need to say. | |
| [35:50] | Thank you. | |
| [35:53] | How the hell can you do this to me? | |
| [35:55] | Cause it ain’t about you, | |
| [35:56] | it’s about doing what’s right. | |
| [35:57] | You support a communist who buys guns for criminals. | |
| [35:59] | Angela didn’t mean for them to get her guns. | |
| [36:01] | You believe that? | |
| [36:02] | George Jackson was not supposed to be in jail | |
| [36:03] | in the first place. | |
| [36:04] | He was wrongfully incarcerated. | |
| [36:05] | Well, the newspapers are saying something. | |
| [36:07] | I’m doing what you taught me to do, | |
| [36:08] | to stand up for our people. | |
| [36:09] | I never stood up for no criminals. | |
| [36:11] | Except for those hot heads that walked in the | |
| [36:12] | church with guns and shot out with the police. | |
| [36:13] | And you raked me over the coals for that and for | |
| [36:15] | involving you in that. | |
| [36:16] | I’m involved in this because I want to be, | |
| [36:18] | not because of you. | |
| [36:19] | I get to support who I want to on my terms. | |
| [36:21] | But you make me look bad in the process. | |
| [36:23] | You can do that all by yourself. | |
| [36:30] | You know, you talk about black empowerment but when I | |
| [36:34] | suggest you use one of my sermons in my protest record, | |
| [36:36] | you turn your nose up. | |
| [36:37] | Now, I’ve been protesting since before you were born. | |
| [36:39] | Carolyn asked you to write the liner notes in her | |
| [36:41] | new record and you ain’t got the time to empower her. | |
| [36:44] | When you heard Erma was recording “Preacher Man”, | |
| [36:47] | you went and released your own version to | |
| [36:48] | undercut her chance. | |
| [36:50] | How much help do ya’ll need from me? | |
| [36:51] | You just got to flaunt your power, don’t you? | |
| [36:53] | Yes, maybe I do. | |
| [36:58] | Because I’m my mother’s daughter. | |
| [36:59] | Don’t you start about your mother. | |
| [37:01] | And she waited too long to stand up for herself | |
| [37:02] | and it killed her, and I refuse to let that be me. | |
| [37:05] | So, yes, even if it makes you look bad. | |
| [37:21] | Fighting the power begins at home, huh? | |
| [37:26] | Still glad you brought me here to meet him. | |
| [37:31] | Seems like we fighting all the time. | |
| [37:34] | Maybe wanting to help Angela is not the smartest move. | |
| [37:38] | Hey, standing up for what you believe in is | |
| [37:41] | always the right call. | |
| [37:44] | Now, I may not be royalty like you, but I can help. | |
| [37:53] | My daughter and I don’t always see eye to eye. | |
| [38:00] | But I’m glad you visiting with us. | |
| [38:02] | I thank you for that welcome, Reverend Franklin. | |
| [38:05] | Bless you. | |
| [38:08] | You have a good evening. | |
| [38:10] | – Bye, Daddy. – Mm-hmm. | |
| [38:18] | I’m performing at the Fillmore West. | |
| [38:20] | Huh, are you now? | |
| [38:21] | Coming? | |
| [38:23] | Yes, indeed. I will be there. | |
| [38:30] | This is beautiful. | |
| [38:32] | It’s all right. | |
| [38:34] | So are you, come here. | |
| [38:41] | I… | |
| [38:44] | What? | |
| [38:56] | What’s wrong? | |
| [39:00] | I don’t know how to. | |
| [39:04] | I love you. | |
| [39:49] | What’s the matter, sunshine? | |
| [39:51] | It’s just that this time tomorrow our bus will be | |
| [39:54] | headed back to Detroit. | |
| [39:56] | But you’ve enjoyed your visit, right? | |
| [39:59] | Me and Erma and Cecil and Carolyn, | |
| [40:01] | we all want to stay here with you. | |
| [40:06] | Your daddy’s going to let you visit this summer. | |
| [40:08] | For the whole summer? | |
| [40:09] | We’ll have to see. | |
| [40:12] | When we’re at home, we miss you. | |
| [40:16] | What’s the matter? | |
| [40:18] | I’m just tired. | |
| [40:22] | I miss you all too. | |
| [40:28] | Let’s play make it up as we go. | |
| [40:31] | Okay. | |
| [41:02] | Hello? | |
| [41:04] | Mm-hmm. | |
| [41:12] | Thank you. | |
| [41:23] | Momma! | |
| [41:33] | Re? | |
| [41:51] | No, no. | |
| [42:06] | I know. | |
| [43:02] | Do you want something to eat, honey? | |
| [43:04] | No, Sister Helen. | |
| [43:07] | Your mother loved her children more than | |
| [43:09] | anything else in this world. | |
| [43:13] | Your mother’s in a better place now. | |
| [43:15] | She’s with the Lord, child. | |
| [43:16] | You don’t need to talk to me. | |
| [43:19] | I’m sure your daddy gave your momma a | |
| [43:21] | beautiful home going speech. | |
| [43:25] | Daddy didn’t go to Momma’s funeral. | |
| [43:28] | We buried her in Buffalo, and he wasn’t even there. | |
| [43:31] | You best leave me be. | |
| [43:50] | Ladies and gentlemen, | |
| [43:52] | I would like to say before we leave that | |
| [43:55] | you have been much more than I could have ever expected. | |
| [44:00] | I’d like to leave you saying… | |
