Alfonzo Rachel and Ava Aston: National anthem – ‘Red White and a Lil’ Blusey’
Many of you commented on our recent story about talk show host Bill Press and his derogatory comments about our national anthem.
Singer and Blaze friend Ava Aston was outraged enough to record her own new “Red White and a Lil’ Blusey” version at the invitation Zonation’s own AlfonZo Rachel:

Posted on June 18, 2012 at 9:37amDitto. BUT the song is a hymn for pipe organ, much like a prayer. Its not a march or an opportunity for virtuoso stylings. The most respect you can show for the country and the anthem is to sing it straight.
Style it all you want for private performances and in the recording studio, but for public performance paying respect to our country and forefathers show us how good of a musician/vocalist you are by ACTUALLY READING THE MUSIC. Just as few in Congress actually read any of Obamacare before voting for it I think few who perform the national anthem have read the musical notes.

Posted on June 16, 2012 at 8:25pmI hope that TheBlaze will feature some of AlfonZo Rachel’s opinion pieces and insights. Not only does he bring his talents & a unique voice to Conservatives, but his analogies, logic and reasoning are fresh and HILARIOUS! PJMedia has a great contributor in Zo, and I hope TheBlaze, Mercury Radio Arts, or GBTV will bring his fresh perspectives to audiences.
If you liked Andrew Klavan, you’ll love AlfonZo Rachel and ZoNation!
