Free Culture For Musicians
�Culture, like science and technology, grows by accretion, each new creator building on the works of those who came before.� �Judge Alex Kozinski

Culture grows by accretion. We are constantly building on the past, and therefore, improving the world we live in.
The Times They Are A-Changin'
