Cyclone #Nat is in the South Pacific approaching French Polynesia.

An E'ward track of a tropical cyclone below Tahiti has never happened on record. In fact, Tahiti has never had a landfall. It has had 2 close tracks by 2 Cat 2 storms, BOTH in 1983. #Veena and Rewa.

1983 was an El Nino year, as was 1997 when two cyclones passed near French Polynesia.

The S Pac basin goes as far east as 120W even though few tropical cyclones have ever passed east of 130W (record was Ursula in 1998 @ 124.5W)

Daily #SteveKimock. Today marks my 66th year on the planet so I’m posting one of my favorite collaborations between me and Steve.

A couple long #acoustic #slideguitar improvisations. 100% spontaneous improvisation.

Daily #SteveKimock. Steve and myself playing acoustic #SteelGuitar at one of his Meet and Greet events. We had known about the event but weren’t aware that it was billed as a duo performance until we got there. So we just played ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

First a long meditative piece, then a funny q and a followed by a long #blues.

Mera Naam Chin Chin Chu, performed on the veena, the ghatam, & the guitar! You don't normally associate this tune with such instruments

Performed by the Raman Sisters of Shivamogga (Shimoga), Karnataka: Sandhya Raman, Vidya Ashok, & Mangala Raman

However, they look pretty serious for such a light-hearted song!

#Guitar a day. Pushpa #Veena Indian #SlideGuitar. If you’ve followed this series you won’t be surprised to learn that it was yet another surprise gift from my wife. She conspired with my teacher, #DebashishBhattacharya who designed this instrument, while he was staying with us in Chapel Hill. It arrived last Christmas.

Skin top. 5 melody strings, 2 chikaris, 3 jawaris, 13 sympathetics. The video is my teacher Debashish.
