I just found out this morning. Heartbroken.
Odetta will forever inspire me to do the work while bringing light to darkness. She is a Goddess!
Can anyone tell me the name of the song she is singing in the clip? What a powerful voice - I can't believe I hadn't heard of her before now.
Who is that hilariously nerdy white guy in the middle of the video?! Ahead of his times, be-cardiganed, geek glasses, and chillin' to Odetta--this is the man of my dreams!

Cult Night Club
So as to avoid the possible inconvenience caused by a misunderstanding between Head of Delegation and Head of Pavilion on the pre-arrangement of the "daily menu", the following measures were taken daily in all kitchens for the use of the general menu of dishes, i.e. foods classed as breakfast dishes were available daily as well as hors-d'oeuvre and cold buffet, fruit juices, cheeses, beverages. Two or three different dishes were prepared each day, for the items falling under the categories of vegetables and cream of vegetables soups, thick and clear coups, fish, meat vegetables, sweets.
The athletes engaged outside the Village at meal times could, on request, obtain picnic lunches which were available on the spot. Over three thousand picnic lunches were prepared during the entire period.
The international night club also served as a refreshment centre for all guests, who showed their approval of this initiative by making full use of this facility. During the whole period of its functioning this club distributed approximately 20 thousand meals, plus a very large number of sandwiches, fruit, fruit juices, and beverages.
In the canteen clubs a sort of "self-service" was set up and so arranged that the guest, on entering could at once see the "daily menu" displayed on a large board placed above the distribution counter. Proceeding from one end to the other of the "self-service" counter he could pick up the following: tray, crockery and cutlery, hors d'oeuvre, cold dishes, hot dishes, fruit, and sweets. Then, from a second counter placed in the centre of the room, he could help himself to sauces, various condiments, fruit juices, bread, etc. Before sitting down the guest could take his choice of beverages (mineral water, orangeade, coca-cola, etc.) directly from the various refrigerators set out along the walls of the room.
