I'm beating the heat on the coast this weekend and slacking on music recommendations (but highly confident you'll figure out things to do on your own).
Though speaking of slacking ... here's a great opportunity to hear some primo slack key guitar on Monday and Tuesday with Jim "Kimo" West and Ken Emerson on their "Slackers in Paradise" tour! Paradise on Monday and Tuesday being the Lake Theater in Lake Oswego ...
Jim "Kimo" West and Ken Emerson are both living legends in the world of Hawaiian slack key and acoustic steel guitar. They strive for freshness and spontaneity in their duet shows and include musical influences that go beyond the islands to the world of blues, folk, ragtime and jazz. Besides his solo slack key career, Kimo has been the recording and touring guitarist with the world's most famous musical satirist, "Weird Al" Yankovic. Ken played on the first-ever winner in the Grammy's Hawaiian category as well Donald Fagen's ( Steely Dan) Grammy-winning "Morph The Cat." He has performed with Hawaiian slack key legends such as Gabby Pahinui, Moe Keale and Raymond Kane and his many other touring/ recording credits include Jackson Browne, Pablo Cruise, Boz Scaggs, Charlie Musselwhite ,Elvin Bishop and with members of the Grateful Dead.
