Society Stew is all of us – even Native Americans crossed over to Americas – we are all immigrants and WHO CARES WHO GOT HERE FIRST?
This is a movement to ignite pride in who you are as part of the bigger mix of all cultures – all contributing to the sciences to the arts to the great diversity of humans – how they encourage instead of discourage. It is all designed to focus on the self-evident beliefs in our Declaration of Independence.

Hey if this is how everyone’s created equal –
Then I’m not waiting’ for the sequel
Living in the land of, supposed to be free
Super surveillance is watching’ you
Time to stop the crime of the century
Time to leave it
Leave the inequality zoo
Time to leave the zoo
Leave the inequality zoo
Freedom road is waiting for you
Believers in equality
Leave the inequality zoo
For all the kids from somewhere else
For all descended from minorities
Who cares who got here first?
We treat em’ with freedom
We hold these truths
To be self-evident
We could be in the majority rule
We hold them close to our hearts
All the elders all the youth
We would be welcome here
The key ingredients in
In society stew
We hold these truths we hold them near
Work so hard in your cities
With all you might
And we would be welcome here
All men and women are created equal
You choose to let the truth be true
Choose equality
It’s an easy choice to make
The stakes are high
Not one more lie
Travellers on the human bus the me and you the we and us
We have to save it —do you believe that’s true – save the experiment
We can save it the keys to the voting booth
Leave leave leave
The inequality zoo
Freedom road is waiting on you
Leave leave the inequality zoo
We got ’em keys to the voting booth
——leave it in the rear view
Livin in the land of supposed to be free
Time to stop the crime of the century
Time to stop the power of the few
No more lies
No more hypocrisy
Time to stop the crime
Leave the inequality ZOO
Get back on the road to freedom make it to the voting booth
No surveillance in the booth
Will tomorrow ever be now –
We would be welcome here
Even appreciated
Three CD's (37 titles) of famous beloved classical melodies, re-created in an irreverent but truly funky style,with added music sections composed and arranged by David Bluefield and played by his team of talented musicians (Bluefield Bandwidth). Each album represents slightly more irreverence and fun explorations of what might have happened “if Beethoven had electricity to work with”. With the fundamental belief that a beautiful melody lasts forever - there are 37 of those beloved melodies with new “musical note suits” of clothing. For the Classical music purists maybe not so much, but for Jazz lovers a veritable closet full of new outfits for your ears to try on.
Dave's proudest achievement is the American Music Project – created by the great humanitarians Don Drowty and Herb Albert helping to create an album heard by 22 million kids in 71 thousand schools in a desperate attempt to keep music appreciation central to education. Roy Rogers, Dale Evans and Iron -Eyes Cody introduce the songs and Rita Coolidge, Garth Brooks, Mel Blanc (the voice of Bugs Bunny) and Don McLean take turns singing Nursery Rhymes – immediately following are the instrumental versions for Kids to learn how to singalong. It all began when Don Drowty and Iron Eyes Cody developed project PRIDE -Personal Responsibility in Daily Effort for all kids and especially underprivileged Native Americans on Reservations in the Chinle Valley, Apache County, Arizona including Navajo and Hopi Indian tribes. As a result of performing live concerts Dave and Don received the Presidential Achievement Award of Excellence from both United States Presidents Carter and Regan.
From his years as a 70's rock star with Kindred and Three Dog Night, Dave became quite adept at Clavinet and Hammond B3 keyboards and how much they add to the overall sound of that era. Now all these many moons later that music is still very important today and deserves its place as part of a great rhythm section right alongside brass and strings in major orchestra arrangements today. His recent series of MUSIC STORIES reflect those instruments - give a listen and see how they feel perfectly aligned.
