I saw Chuck play several times at the Raven Until i left Detroit in 
75 
He would really swoon the Ladies with his deep Tenor ala "Robert 
Goulet ". He also was a good 12 string guitar player.
His book was a gallimaufry of folk, Broadway,Jac Brel is alive and 
well in Paris. I will always remember Him doing  "The Circle Game" or 
"Please show me the way to the Whiskey Bar" as an Encore. He did 
carry A bitter sweet thing in his heart for Joni, yes he was a gate 
to provide the American Citizenship She needed to go on to NYC and 
Hollywood. I think Joni learned from Chuck an elementary lesson in 
playing the House and developing the basics of the voice and guitar. 
Later from Leonard Cohen she Learned her skills on writing Songs.
Another post from the smoky past.
Bye
