Synopsis

Eighteen years of reflections and essays can be found in Fyre Gallierd's book, "Race, Rock & Religion: Profiles from a Southern Journalist".

Also covered in his book, Galliard thought country music was dumb and stupid and that Elvis Presley's jazz rock was popular because he was a young, white, singer who could sound Black.
