    Thanks to my brother Sal D’Agnillo, who left me his black Fender Stratocaster. It is the electric guitar on this album. Pretty sure he’d be
    pleased with the way Jim played it.
    Thanks to Michael Camp, Bob Cicchini, Dana Cooper, Lisa Galperin,
    Whit Hill, Joel Mabus, Karen Mal, Joyce Maynard, David Massengill,
    Laurie McClain, Buddy Mondlock, Chuck Pfarrer, Michael Smith, Mark
    Stuart, Natalia Zuckerman, for suggesting these songs. Thanks to
    Suzanne for permission to do a little “Da da da duh, doo da-doo doo…”

lyrics

All-American Man (Che)
To San Ernesto de La Higuera we offer our hands
For the ones you are missing, there’s no ground for kissing
You are only a man
Aboard the yacht Granma chartered for Cuba
You fought from that day
Veracruz to Playa Las Coloradas
Lives and freedom to save

Che Guevara, you are only a man
Che Guevara, Central, Southern, Latin or another
All American man

Felix Rodriguez de la CIA; blood on your hands
That Rolex you’re wearing, the tales you are sharing
They belong to a man
Alberto Korda, your iconic photo with the rebel beret
If only for you and the causes so few
He lives to this day

Che Guevara, you are only a man
Che Guevara, Central, Southern, Latin or another
All American man
Che Guevara, your country is somewhere?
Che Guevara , like Roosevelt and Ryan you suffer from asthma
You’re fighting for air

Che Guevara, you are only a man
Che Guevara, Central, Southern, Latin or another
All American man
If fashion plates could dictate states
They’d be a rebel, a fighter, a doctor, a lover
Central, Southern, Latin or another
All American man

John D. Lamb Detroit, Michigan

Lamb spins a tale of love and woe full of true irony and forlorn humor…Lamb has given us a slice of life in which we find common ground, but is anything but commonplace…
