11. Thanks for bringing back the memories.

Especially this one.

In late 2012, The Library of Congress announced that Carole King had been named the 2013 recipient of the prestigious Gershwin Prize for Popular Song - the first woman to receive the distinction given to songwriters for a body of work. "Carole King has been one of the most influential songwriters of our time," Librarian of Congress James H. Billington said in a statement accompanying the announcement. "For more than five decades, she has written for and been recorded by many different types of artists for a wide range of audiences, communicating with beauty and dignity the universal human emotions of love, joy, pain and loss. Her body of work reflects the spirit of the Gershwin Prize with its originality, longevity and diversity of appeal." President and Mrs. Barack Obama hosted the Gershwin Award concert at the White House May 22, 2013, when the President presented the Gershwin Award to Carole King. .[62] In June 2013 she campaigned in Massachusetts for US Representative Ed Markey, the Democratic nominee in a special election for the US Senate to succeed John Kerry who had resigned to become Secretary of State.

Carole King will be honored as MusiCares Person of the Year in January 2014.[63]

7. then I went to Hana

after Washington State and helped build these.

The little town I was connected to brought
carpenters to Hawaii because of Frank Herbert that wrote Dune. To build his structure there.


And then we got jobs building this hotel







I quit the trade went back to school and got a degree in elementary education and then a masters in special ed.

[Ichingcarpenter]

8. And I met this guy

[Ichingcarpenter]

9. Love Country Joe

I met him once in Bolinas in the 80's when I lived nearby. Probably one of the most down-to-earth and genuine celebrities anywhere, one of my all-time favorites. Cool that you got to hang out with him. Where's that house, if I may ask?

[Ichingcarpenter]

10. Port Townsend Washington State.

I went to this guy's wake
invited by his brother in Coronado California.
who went to my high school in Virginia


Not really a friend in high school but I was paying attention when he said his brother cut an album.....

I have no idea what all this means but I am participate in something for some reason.

[NBachers]

13. Here's to you, Ichingcarpenter. And to Country Joe and Barry Melton. And to Izzy Kamakawiwo'Ole

And here's to all of us- a hand shake and a pat on the back. Every day we wake up and we do our best.

Nice house- you walk up the sidewalk and open the door you're *home*. And that's good for your soul. Open the windows at night and the crickets play a symphony for you. Wake up in the morning and the birds are singing with the joy of another new day.

[Enthusiast]

14. Great stuff, Ichingcarpenter! I'm a big fan.

[DiverDave]

15. Forrest?

eom

[snappyturtle]

16. WOW! What a great OP....bookmarking! Thanks...these videos are

from 'my' time...again, thanks.

[mountain grammy]

17. Thanks, Ichingcarpenter!

[Gman]

18. Gimme an F!

[ReRe]

19. K&R

I always knew you was special, but now I know why. Like minds, same era. Great OP, Ichingcarpenter. I love that version of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow." Played the Uke when I was a whipper-snapper. Don't know what ever became of that little bit of strings. I'm sure I bestowed it upon someone who promised to learn how to play it, as I did with other instruments. Again, thanks for the memories. It was a pretty good ride, I must say.

[Ichingcarpenter]

20. The simplicity of the uke

gives the depth and complexity of that song, that we hadn't seen before.

you're welcome

Just going though some time warps with myself tonight.

[ReRe]

22. Ah yes, the simplicity

Anyone, and I mean a-n-y-o-n-e, can learn to play that sweet little thing. I have uncles (more like cousins in age) who used to show off for us when they came home from college, playing the uke and singing Trini Lopez's "Lemon Tree." Time warps can go either way, but yours seem to be headed in the right direction.
Hope you don't mind if I tag along behind..

21. Very cool. I saw him sing "Carry On" at a memorial service for Mario Savio at UC Berkeley in 1996.

At about 01:53:15, he sings "Carry On" (very appropriate for a memorial service, especially for Mario Savio):
http://www.c-span.org/video/?77209-1/mario-savio-memorial-service

Carry On
Oh, when our struggle's over and we all are free,
When the new day's dawnin', think of me.
It's been a long time comin' but I won't be there,
When you see the sun risin' think of me.
Oh, think of me and carry on!
Oh, think of me and carry on!

And when the storm clouds gather and you've lost your way
When you need a light to guide you, think of me.
And though you may grow weary from your work each day
If you need a hand to help you, think of me.

Oh, think of me and carry on!
Oh, think of me and carry on!

Oh, when our struggle's over and we are all free,
When the new day's dawnin', think of me.
It's been a long time comin' but I won't be there,
When you see the sun risin', think of me.

Oh, think of me and carry on!
Oh, think of me and carry on!

And when the storm clouds gather and you've lost your way
When you need a light to guide you, think of me.
And though you may grow weary from your work each day,
If you need a hand to help you, think of me.

Oh, think of me and carry on!
Oh, think of me and carry on —
And carry on!
