Leo Kottke Live in Chicago
https://youtu.be/XddFTLVQZro
:)
*
'Was Leo Kottke a hippie singer?' I searched on:
"He’s always paddled his own boat across the prairies of American music, prompting the likes of Chet Atkins--with whom Kottke shares the bill at the Coach House on Saturday--to remark, “He’s got a lot of strange thoughts going on in that head of his.” Kottke’s brain just seems to be furrowed a little differently.
...
Kottke’s identity first asserted itself on record in 1969, and since then his sonorous, rhythmically skewed 12-string playing and bemused baritone vocals have staked out a territory as inventively, timelessly American as the radio shows of his friend Garrison Keillor. He has garnered a accolades from the likes of Atkins and jazz great Joe Pass, even though his style is far afield from theirs.
In a free-ranging conversation Kottke lighted on the roots of that style, the creative process, his first all-vocal album, “hippie chicks” and his grave concerns about the future of this nation."
> https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1992-06-05-ca-659-story.html*
"In concert, Kottke intersperses humorous and often bizarre monologues with vocal and instrumental selections from throughout his career, played solo on his 6- and 12-string guitars."
> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leo_Kottke
*
Then I found -
Jack Fig (The Chicken Murderer) - Leo Kottke (live)
https://youtu.be/R15TOEgtvCc
and it is a bit bizarre, yet with great music ... can even see why the SPCA - the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals - became an American Institution (re fascinating cultural insight, I had never gleaned before from American society:).
*
"Although he once described his voice as the sound of "geese farts on a muggy day," Leo Kottke is best known for his 12-string slide instrumentals and five-finger picking technique. These paved the way for fellow guitarists Michael Hedges and Will Ackerman of the Windham Hill label to combine bluegrass, bottleneck-blues, and classical rhythms into the popular New Age listening music of the 1980s. In 24 years, Kottke has composed scores for film soundtracks, children's shows, and a symphony; and he has also released over 21 LPs, some of which (like Great Big Boy) included his aforementioned craggy baritone, reminiscent of folksinger Tom Waits or the more short-winded radio personality and writer Garrison Keillor.
When his career blossomed with the folk revival of the 1960s and 1970s, Kottke earned the early title of "virtuoso"; Rolling Stone described him as "so good that he didn't need a band." Folk great Pete Seeger, who (along with John Fahey) was one of Kottke's first influences, called the young guitar player "the best twelve-string guitarist [he has] ever heard.""

Dear Larry
(Viehland, Chair and CFO of MIT OCW-centric wiki World University and School),
It was good to talk with Office of Digital Learning MIT's Sanjay Sarma on Friday, and I appreciate his supportive words toward the close of our 30 minutes' MIT Zoom video conference, but he also echoed some of the negativity I've heard before from edX before (a kind of lack of connecting or empathy somehow). That being said, I wonder if this email - does Anant himself send them out, with their new thread titles each time? - could be edX / MITx > MIT OCW could be a historical basis for developing modular courses' WUaS degrees further? In a way, this email "Celebrating 8 years of transforming education" - https://link.edx.org/view/57ea8ed2e9a8a271498b4ff9c0qyb.3qx11/8d80064c - and related report - https://www.edx.org/sites/default/files/2020-impact-report.pdf - are an expression of edX's mission, planning, and history thus far.
And could Googler Edd Wilder-James also have sent out his 1st newsletter (after 3 years!) via some kind of communication with west coasters' Sanjay Sarma, Anant Agarwal, Peter Norvig, John Hennessy et al? Again, I responded to this newsletter here - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2020/05/passion-flower-sword-billed-hummingbird.html. (And could Edd, who lives in Santa Rosa, CA, an hour or so north of SF on 101, even have been a Quaker in York, England - and might he be involved in the Friends' Meeting there now somehow too? - a possibility).
Sincerely,
Scott

from Sweden ?
From Google Translate:
"Still unclear who the asylum seeker in sailboat is
The man who was found aboard a drifting sailboat in the Skagerrak has still not been identified. He wants to seek asylum in Norway."
"The man is now in custody at the Arendal police station, suspected of violating the Immigration Act. It is unclear if the work to map the man's name and nationality will start this weekend, writes NRK.
Just before 11 pm on Friday evening, the man was taken ashore. He was found aboard a drifting sailboat with a Swedish flag. The man expressed that he wanted to seek asylum in Norway, and was taken in tow by the cargo ship observing the boat.
"The boat comes from Sweden and has been out at sea for about two days to try to get into a country and seek asylum," rescue leader Owe Frøland told Fædrelandsvennen.
The man spoke little English and poor Swedish. He also had no passport, only a copy of a passport to show the police, writes NRK. Frogland does not want to state the age or possible nationality of the man.
- This is a special case. It is not normal in Norwegian waters that someone shows up in such a vessel and asks for asylum, he tells NRK."
