Shuggie Otis, son of Johnny Otis, wrote and released “Strawberry Letter 23″ as a single in 1971. The song became a major hit for the Johnson Brothers, who recorded it in 1977.

Shug Otis - age 16 - was the bass player on Frank Zappa’s “Peaches En Regalia” from the Hot Rats album

Shug Otis rejected an offer to replace Mick Taylor in The Rolling Stones in 1974.

1) We have 23 chromosomes in our DNA . 2) Shakespeare's birthday is April 23. 3) In the movie, Airport '77, the Mad Bomber sat in seat #23. 4) 23 skidoo is an American slang phrase popularized during the early 20th century. 5) It's also an avant-funk, industrial, post-punk, experimental electronic band whose first album I heard in the early 80s was a musical rendering of some Aleister Crowley's invocations. 6) Aleister Crowley in The Book of Lies (ca. 1912–13) titled Chapter 23 "Skidoo" with the comment: "23" and "Skidoo" are American words meaning "Get out". 7) The youngest golfer to win the Masters, Jack Nicklaus, did so at the age of 23. 8) The most well-known Christian psalm is Psalm 23. 9) It takes around 23 seconds for blood to circulate the body on average. 10) On May 23rd 1785, Benjamin Franklin announced his invention of the Bifocals. On March 23rd 1836, the coin press was created, and on September 23rd 1879 the Audiophone, an early hearing aid, was invented. 11) When he was assassinated, Caesar was stabbed a staggering 23 times. 12) Pliny the Elder, the “scientist” and author of numerous scientific literature, was born in 23 A.D. 13) The 23rd element, Vanadium, has an insane melting point of 3470 °F (1910 °C). 14) The 23 Enigma is what they call obsessing about 23's. I first heard of it from Robert Anton Wilson, who says he first heard it from William S. Burroughs.

Of course, it could just be an example of apophenia --- selection bias.

I choose to believe.

Strawberry Letter 23 (Shuggie Otis Turns 70)

Full disclosure: I don’t know that I ever would have done a post on Shuggie Otis (b. 1953), all things remaining the same, though indeed I did do a post on his legendary father Johnny Otis. The reason for this post is that Shuggie’s best known song has been driving me crazy for days, and I can’t get it out of my head. Granted, the song is over 50 years old and I’ve known it well ever since its…
