[78-L] Songs in the Key of Hope^

[SoundThink at aol.com]

Anybody catch Jon Stewart's take on the presidential debates last week? All  
partisanship aside, he did do one hilarious record-oriented bit, observing 
that  Barack Obama's casual posture while sitting on a chair made him appear "so 
cool,  that he didn't give away whether he was campaigning for the presidency 
or posing  for a 1960s soul album." Stewart then showed a mock-up of Obama's 
"album,"  "Songs in the Key of Hope," with Obama flanked by the Blue Note jazz 
logo and  RCA Victor's late '50s "Living Stereo" banner. Other than the mixed 
label icons,  it really looks like a 1960s LP! Hilarious.

"The Daily Show Reviews the Second  Presidential Debate" and fast forward to 
7:15 of the excerpt. 
 
Because of the volatile state of the election, please do not follow this up  
with tirades on behalf of either candidate. I just thought it would be a funny 
 thing for record collectors to see.
