8:50 on coffee.first: billy taylor - "i wish i knew how it would feel to be free".
he wrote it for his daughter kim, cut it in 1963 as an instrumental. then came words by dick dallas, nina simone in 1967, and a place in the civil rights movement.
his 1967 trio take ran as bbc's film theme for decades. you know it. now you can name it.
