So, what I'm asking is for anybody, (Mike C?? MaxMouse?? Mr BB??) who does have the cd to e-mail me with the Polygram (I think) catalogue number etc. so that I can get the local music store to import it for me. Thanks in advance to anybody who can help me out :) Steve ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 24 May 1998 23:47:01 -0700 (MST) From: wderby@aztec.asu.edu (WES C.

They played "Who Will Save Your Soul", and I told my friend to pull into the next record store we came to so I could get the CD.

Miles" Subject: jewel: an everyday angel - an unauthorized biography Hey angels, Don't know if anything was posted on this... an unauthorized biography was published about Jewel earlier this year called Jewel: An Everyday Angel - An Unauthorized Biography. It was written by Tracey West and published by the Scholastic publishing company. It has a short section on EDA's, including an interview with Dennis Harris (that definitely makes it a collector's item). ;-Þ It also has some pics of her, and a pretty general "Jewelography". I think Scholastic usually prints educational materials (textbooks, etc.), which is how I found it... my mother-in-law is a teacher and was searching for textbooks when she saw this book - it looks like it was written for a middle school/junior high reading level. Anyway, just wondering if anybody has seen this or might have it, since it was published earlier this year (the book covers up to the end of 1997). I don't know if it's available in stores or not, since I found it through the publishing company. Tom :-) - -- Thomas N.

(stars always seen to do more than one media event a day) The Conan web site ( http://www.nbc.com/conan ) doesn't go ahead that far in the upcoming guests /"who's next" section of his site, so I guess we'll have to wait until we hear from MrBB (who's out of town right now) or until mention of it shows up on the official Jewel web site. Mike :-) P.S. For those that don't know, The Conan O'Brien Show is a late night show on NBC TV, and it airs right after the Tonight Show With Jay Leno in most areas. * If you are new to the Jewel list and need a helping hand * The Jewel EveryDay Angels List Homepage & Guide is at: * http://www.spectra.net/~ducksoup * * If you have list related questions, feel free to email me * at Ducksoup@spectra.net * * DuckofPrey@aol.com WhyADuck55 on AOL Instant Messenger ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 25 May 1998 11:30:57 -0400 (EDT) From: kartalst@HUGSE1.HARVARD.EDU Subject: NJC: it's been fun, To all my lovely, beautiful, amazing friends and fellow Jewel listees, I joined this list on January 20, 1997, not knowing or understanding just what it was that I was getting into. To say the least, I was pleasantly surprised and in awe of the community that had revealed itself to me-a bunch of people who appreciated one musician's art but who, more than anything else, appreciated, respected, and loved each other. A bunch of people who had embraced the real, emotional meaning of family and who had opened themselves up to become one family. It's something so rare these days to have people from all over create such a strong web of support to help carry each other. And definitely something so special. Somewhere along the lines, I became a part of all this-I became more than some silly e-mail address. People wanted to get to know me for me--it didn't matter that I was ugly or not all that smart or anything else, it just mattered that I lived and was alive and had a soul and knew the word love as if it were my right hand. It only mattered that I didn't shut myself off to my dreams and my faith, no matter how distant they may have seemed or how "possible" (as opposed to probable...) I let them seem in my life. That was enough. *I* was enough, just the way I had come to them. This really surprised me, and it taught me a major lesson that, at the age of 19, I should have already known from having been raised in a family of sorts. But, as many of my EDA friends know, that totally wasn't the case. Your love became a home for me. And suddenly I knew the meaning of the word home. And the meaning of the word family. I love you all so much! With everything I have overcome, you have always been there for me. I have felt your love when the time came to free myself and break away from anything negative in my life (mainly my parents and the relationship that I shared with them), and I felt your support deep inside me when I made my rough move to Boston. When I think of EDAs, that's what I remember best-the type of spiritual love that is shared that lends itself to living inside our souls and making itself known, even when we are so far away from each other. Y'all are an amazing group of people. If anything, stand tall. Feel proud. Do all this because you have found ways to do what most people in this life can not do-dream, hope, love, and live through your faith and optimism, no matter what negative, pessimistic, compromising messages exist in the surrounding world. Do this, not for anyone else, not because some of you feel that it's an example that some person like Juel Kilcher may have set, but because it's what lives and grows inside you so beautifully that it lets you recognize love anywhere you see it. Do this for you. Do this because you can't love until you love youself, you can't dream about the external world until you can dream and love these dreams for youself. Do this because you live. Do this because you are *alive*, animated. The time has come, and I have to leave this list. It is not through any one's fault, and it does not indicate that I have any less love or respect for you. The stuff that is inside my life and inside my heart right now knows above and beyond all else that I need to concentrate on things that are internal. That I need to keep my focus so strong. That I need more time for myself than the time I spend sitting on a computer funneling through list post after list post after list post. Sometimes my heart gets heavy when I have a line of 50 posts to read and all of them get deleted because I can't sit through all of them and because my email memory can't handle holding on to every one of them. I hope that people will keep me in check with EDA get togethers. Just cuz I am leaving all the emails does not mean that I want to stop any of the amazing blessings and miracles of friendship that have entered my life since you have welcomed me into your lives. I *do* want to see you again. I *do* want to talk to you again. I *do* want to stay in touch with all the beautiful souls who have not only become my friends, but who have become my best teachers. With this, I bid you a fond adieu... (((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((EDAs)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) I love you all! Stephanie I leave you with this quote. It's something that I said to a new friend of mine, Brian, the other day. It just revealed such a truth as the words fell out of my mouth, and I want to share it: "there is a difference between sound and noise. noise is empty. in sound you have revelation; sound is the platform through which revelation presents itself. truth comes through silence, through the stillness of expression that makes all different senses of expression united. silence and sound are one." -Stephanie to Brian @ Walden Pond Stephanie Maria Kartalopoulos We should be very greatful to have a kartalst@hugse1.harvard.edu limited body...like mine or like The Greek Poet Chyck yours.

As always, comments and suggestions are welcome. Please visit my 'Jewel' page at http://w3.one.net/~alien Later, Doug ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 25 May 1998 09:49:53 PDT From: "Steve Garner" Subject: the 1st time..... I've noticed that a couple people on the list have been mentioning the first time they saw/heard Jewel, so I thought I'd put my two cents in while we're on the subject. The first time I ever saw Jewel was on MuchMusic a couple years ago. They were playing the video for WWSYS. The first thing that interested me about the video was her voice... I thought it was very unique... all those different vocal styles that she incorporates into the song were very cool. I also thought she was cute, so I continued watching the video, thinking "hey, if I don't like this song, at least I can look at her!" But as it turned out, I did like the song and I wouldn't have minded seeing her again.... plus the unique name of "Jewel" ensured that I wouldn't forget her anytime soon. But unfortunately, after that day, I never saw or heard anything to do with Jewel for what was probably over a year, maybe more (how did I survive??) The next time I heard Jewel was when the YWMFM single came out, followed by Foolish Games. That's when I became hooked. I eventually went out and bought POY...and I loved it. It's such an amazing album....relaxing, emotional, sincere.....five stars in my book! I wonder if my future would have been any different had I not seen that one video waaayyy back then.... hmmmm......

Silver Lining is playing on Slovenian radio station (national). It's a debut at #40 on Slovenian Top 40 chart! Even if this is the one and only week this song will be on the chart it's so great - finally some exposure to our people... I'm probably the only person who has his album in my country and one of very few who have heard of him (not counting those I introduced his music to)!!! So anyway... they annoced this song as a duet by Jewel Kilcher and Steve Poltz... of course there was some info on them (those two morons who run the show always have some incredible info - either cause it's so like "We just made it up"(misinfo of course which those who know nothin ever notice) or really something fresh and interesting... in which category this fits decide for yourself - I'm translating and quoting: "5 years ago singer Steve Poltz met, in one of the beautiful bars in so called Ocean Beach in California, Jewel who as you know comes from Alaska. She had a few hits... songs like Pieces Of You that was even #1 in USA. Anyways together they now wrote a song called Silver Lining... together with Steve Poltz this time singer Jewel." They play the song and follow it with this: "Love-romance from 5 years ago, between singer Jewel Kilcher who was only fourteen at the time Steve Poltz met her, and since then in a way they live together, sing together. Jewel says that Steve Poltz is the only person who can make her cry when he sings... and maybe sometimes in the kitchen or whatever. Anyway very good,sucessful this time in music business - Steve Poltz, Jewel Kilcher and song Silver Lining!" That's it... by the way... Can anybody explain that "kitchen" part... I mean... what the *peeeeep*.... I'll give you a medal *LMAO* It's also worth mentioning that on this very chart Jewel went TOP40 with You Were Meant For Me (#26) and Foolish Games(#10), while Angel Standing By was the biggets hit cause it went to #2... where those two creeps heard of the single Pieces Of You beats me! *LOL* Anyways... that's it... ...and if anybody cares... Alanis Morisette had the highest debut at #28 with Uninvited of course! Enough!!

She'll be hopefully wrapping up her participation in the movie by end of July & then will be involved with new recording sessions, track selection & mixing through August. The album will focus on the spirituality and reverence of the winter holiday season & will feature all original songs, most of which have never been performed live (& are not on the vast resource of live recordings freely circulating amongst the EDAs). The album will include arias, lullabies and some of the lyrics were penned in Latin. Jewel has not decided on a title yet. Even though this next album will celebrate the holiness of the holidays, her usual social and political themes will run throughout the material. Since this album is "thematic" to a certain extent, you will not have to worry about delays into next year as many have speculated. They definitely plan on having it out in plenty of time for the holiday season. I also get the strong impression that a 3rd album of new material will likely be accomplished sometime in 1999, so there will be plenty to look forward to (& no ridiculously long delay between her 2nd & 3rd albums.) As I've said countless times before, the album she recorded in Bearsville during the summer of 1996, titled "Fritz Creek Store" will not be released. All of this material is extremely dated now & doesn't reflect where Jewel is at anymore. Some of these tracks may possibly turn up as b-sides/xtra cuts on future singles. At this point in time, no touring plans have been scheduled for the rest of the year. If that changes, which is certainly possible, I'll definitely get concert schedules to you all, in advance, as I've done for the past few years. I did give Jewel the EDA Birthday card & told her about the various "volunteer community service" going on, as well as the many EDAs planting flowers,etc, in honor of her birthday. :-) She's currently on a retreat with Lenedra, but I'll likely get an EDA message from her when she returns to the movie set in a few days. I'll certainly forward it to the lists, so all of you can read it. I do not know when Charlie Rose plans on airing his interview with Jewel from last Monday (which was bumped due to the Sinatra death). I expect it to air this week sometime. Continue to check during the week. Perhaps his website will post info soon. Since I will continue to be in & out of touch over the next few weeks, please help each other & post any info on TV broadcast timings you may discover on the NET. I hope all had a wonderful weekend & I'll talk to ya soon! :-) MrBB ------------------------------ End of jewel-digest V3 #281 ***************************
