Martin Luther King Jr. | I Have a Dream 1963-2025 Inspirational (Picture Disc/anniversary | Vinyl

Issued by Culture Factory USA, this picture-disc anniversary release centers on restored excerpts from Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s “I Have a Dream” address, delivered August 28, 1963 at the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom — one of the most consequential speeches in American history, calling for racial equality and an end to segregation. The program interweaves passages of the speech, including its famous refrains, with period-appropriate vocal and R&B recordings from contemporaries such as the Bobbettes and Chris Kenner, framing King’s words within the musical culture of the civil rights era. Pressed as a picture disc featuring King’s image, the release is positioned as a collectible tribute item timed to the decades-spanning anniversary of the speech, intended for both historical collectors and listeners revisiting the address in its original spoken cadence.
