“Manteca” was co-written by Dizzy Gillespie and Chano Pozo in 1947. It was one of the first examples of Afro-Cuban influences being incorporated into mainstream jazz. The piece referred to racist tensions in America when Dizzy Gillespie is heard singing, “I’ll never go back to Georgia”. -quoted from wikipedia

In need of queer models.
I’d like to get some experience in the portrait area of photography. I’m a novice and looking for queer models in Northern California (Modesto/Stockton/Ceres/Manteca/Turlock/etc). I’ve nothing to offer in terms of money, and I won’t take any. Just looking for wonderful people to document and share. Grass is only appealing for so long.
Leave me a message or email me at jayclarency@gmail.com if interested. I will provide a website of my work and a background of sorts if necessary. Thank you!
