Kong-Kow Beat | 港九呼聲 - Monsignors | 大人 (Cover of Roy Ayers - Running Away) [US, 1977]

In the 1970s high society in Hong Kong as well as councils, committees and boards of all kinds were dominated by self-important elites who cosied up to colonialism, some of whom were from political dynasties. Yet these politicians desperately wanted to look modern and went around visiting hospitals, shaking hands and kissing babies. In the meantime grassroot protests were making waves throughout the territory, notably the Jubilee Secondary School incident of 1978 and various campaigns by the Trotskyist "Revolutionary Marxist League". Here's a song about the desperation of the era's politics. 1970年代的香港上流社會和各種官民委員會以及議局，不少都被一些自覺矜貴且欽媚殖民主義的精英所把持，其中還包括一些政治家族。但是這些「大人」又要看起來摩登，到處探訪醫院、頻頻握手、親吻嬰兒。同時社會底層抗議風起雲湧，尤其是1978年的金禧事件，以及托派組織「革馬盟」開展的抗議運動。這首歌唱出那個年代的政治絕望。 #royayers #runningaway #funk #jazzfunk #1970smusic #1980smusic #hongkonghistory
