Odetta - Kitchen Listening

This evening we played some Odetta albums. We had about four hours of her special singing of blues and folk music. She sounded so wonderful. I enjoyed her live album very much. She was an amazing performer and I did get to see her live in concert several times in the late 60's and early 70's including once at the Philly Folk Festival and another time in a small folk club. The other time was as an opening act in a downtown rock club.
