"RICKY BLACK"(working title): Synopsis/Concept

"... AND SANJAYA IS STILL THERE!!!"

This is the story of Ricky Black and his stolen Mustang. Apparently his wife's wedding ring has been stolen, but more importantly, his 1978 Shelby Mustang HAS BEEN PILFERED AS WELL!!! He must get it back, but will he make it in time?!

This piece is a piece about materialism. One of the things I found most interesting in my Blues research was this kind of "minimal" spirit. Most musician's i've read about and listened to live by
a philosophy of having only what one needs; living with the bare essenstials with maybe a little extra on the side, but nothing excess. In this piece, I was thinking about the crazy stunts people do to attain wealth to the point of endangering themselves and others.
