I thought it was worth posting the text of Clinton's message to Terri Hooley, founder of Good Vibrations records on the 30th Anniversary of the label's first single.

I tried to say something about Terri in my last post, but it is all said much more clearly in an article on www.goodvibesbelfast.com - click on the Terri Hooley tab. I'd urge anyone reading this to take a look there. 

Clinton's message said.

Warm Greetings to everyone celebrating the 30th anniversary of Good Vibrations Records.

Music is a powerful, unifying force in our world, bringing people together across boundaries of geography, background, religion and culture. Good Vibrations provides a unique and inspiring example in that endeavour. By supporting young musicians in Northern Ireland and introducing them to audiences in England and elsewhere, Good Vibrations not only helped individual musicians to realize their dreams but also offered listeners the opportunity to better understand and appreciate one another through the common language of music.

As you probably know, Northern Ireland holds a special place in my heart. Good Friday, April 10, 1998, the day that all the parties in Northern Ireland agreed to a plan to end 30 years of sectarian violence, was one of the happiest days of my Presidency. While I’m proud of my contribution in bringing about the Agreement, I know that no government policy can truly succeed without the grassroots efforts of those people the policy would affect.

I commend Terri Hooley, and all those involved in Good Vibrations, for giving young people something positive to say, “yes” to.

Best wishes for a memorable and meaningful anniversary celebration.
Bill Clinton (Signed)
