What the World Needs Now/Abraham, Martin and John - Tom Clay 1971 remix

A commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the historic March On Washington on August 28, 1963. I based this video on the late Tom Clay's 1971 remix of "What the World Needs Now is Love/Abraham, Martin and John". ""What the World Needs Now is Love" (1965) was composed by Burt Bacharach (featured in this video at a White House performance) and his longtime lyricist Hal David. "Abraham, Martin and John" is a 1968 song written by Dick Holler and first recorded by Dion. Disc jockey Tom Clay was working at radio station KGBS in Los Angeles, California, when he created the remix single "What the World Needs Now is Love/Abraham, Martin and John", a surprise hit record in 1971. While his was a social commentary on war and racism, my updated version of his remix is intended solely to commemorate the anniversary of the March On Washington.
