| Rahsaan Roland Kirk 12 x 9 inches, oil on canvas, 2018 |
The second Kirk painting within a month illustrating the second track from the film Sound?? If the previous painting belonged to Three for the Festival this one then must belong to Here Comes the Whistleman. One of his whistles hangs on his chest, the flute on his back. While announcing the track in the movie (as Blues in W) he thrown a bunch of plastic flutes in the audience inviting them to blow along. The resulting cacophony is the backdrop for Kirk's flute solo and everything suddenly makes sense and all sounds in the room seem in perfect harmony.
