Subject: My night with Jimmy Webb and Brian Wilson (SJC)
Oh what a night...!
I know we have a few Jimmy and Brian fans here on the list, so please
forgive me for sending a non-Joni review at this time.
Jimmy Webb is playing 6 nights here at the Cinegrill, a small piano bar
inside the beautiful and historic Hollywood Rooseveldt Hotel and tonight was
the first chance I got to go see him. There were only about 60 people
jammed in at little tables. I sat 12 inches behind Brian Wilson and his
wife. Next to Brian was a familiar face I could not place. He and Brian
talked about what Van Dyke Parks was up to these days. At one point Brian
held up a small card to his wife saying in awe "look honey." The card said
"Love you, Glen Frey". Also pointed out in the audience by Jimmy was his
father, Bacharach partner Hal David, David Paich and Johnny Rivers. I felt
like a very lucky L.A. girl.
Jimmy is one of the greatest songwriters of our time. He has been a friend
of Joni for a long time and has always considered her the greatest. She is
mentioned no less than six times in his new book on songwriting "Tunesmith."
He was fantastic tonight - just him and the piano playing all those
beautiful songs. I was constantly feeling it right in the solar plexus.
But the most amazing of all was MacArthur Park - an often scorned song. It
is not even one of my favorites of his, but tonight it was the song that
sucked all the air out of the room and left everyone just melting in their
seats. Forget the familiar Richard Harris version. Listen to Jimmy's own on
"Ten Easy Pieces". The audience sang along to "P.F. Sloan" and then he
asked us to sing along on "Adios." I ended up being the sole accompaniment
to him on that one!
He came back for three encores. After the lights went up I asked Brian's
wife if I could have an autograph from him. She was very kind and Brian
seemed really happy to be recognized. Of course, my breaking the ice
encouraged a few others to approach him, too, and it seemed very nice for
him.
Afterward we all went out into the hotel lobby and met with Jimmy. He was
sincerely awed that Brian was there and thanked him for coming. He actually
asked Brian if he minded taking a photo with him and expressed that he would
like to work with him sometime. Not only Jimmy, but everyone treated Brian
with great reverence and respect. It was very sweet, sweet, sweet.
Jimmy is looking very good these days. He mentioned speaking to Carly today
(hi colin ;-) I know you didn't care for his collaboration with Carly on
Film Noir, but he adores her). He spent a long time talking with me and
actually asked *me* if I would like a photo with him! He signed my copy of
Tunesmith and I also got a signed message from him for our own Rob Jordan
who was so kind to send me a tape of his appearance at the Jazz Cafe in
London earlier this year.
It was quite a Thursday night for a measly $15 cover!
Now I'm anticipating more Joni stories - I had a voice mail message from JZ
Webb when I got home that cryptically said nothing more than she was "at
hotel and just saw Joni" (!!!)

From: "Julie Z. Webb"
Subject: Joni's smoking and it's good
College Park Maryland November 5th, 1998
-Julie Z. Webb
We waited and waited for Joni Mitchell to take center stage....Bill
Dollinger and I, that is. We were nervous. We were in the first row,
center stage in somebody elses seats. We had heard that at previous
shows, Joni started minutes after her warm-up act. Tonight was
different. Rumor had it---that she was stuck on the Beltway. It's my
guess that she came on some 40 minutes later.
This gave me time to work the crowd. Who were these people
in the super-expesive seats. I am a people-watcher from way back. I
was not one of the Joni Mitchell Internet reporters, so I was free to
represent no one---but my bold-ass, curious self. I wanted to know who
these particular fans came to see, Dylan or Joni, so I asked around.
People volunteered how much they paid scalpers for their seats. People
told me about why they love Joni and which albums were their favorites.
Dylanites gave me a countdown of how many times they've seen him in
concert. Teens were asking me about Joni's music .... Heck, I was
having a good ol' time conducting my own Joni Mitchell mini-focus group
in rows 2 and 3. Many of the men said that they came to see Dylan,
except for the "NBC"guy in the third section/first seat, but it was your
average, middle-aged women who kept piping in that they were there to
see Joni Mitchell. Have to say that it was Yuppyville personified at
this concert. Just like me, this was a "first concert in 12 years" for
many of the fortysomething folks I chatted with. Everyone wanted to
know more about the jmdl, and we're intrigued to discover that a place
to talk Joni existed! It was 10 times more surreal ---and gratifying to
communicate in the flesh with Joni fans in person as opposed to on
line! (Gave me a new appreciation for a Jonifest on a big scale.)
Later on, I looked out on the sea of Joni's fans singing softly along
with Joni, and I was moved. I wonder if Joni was able to see from the
stage, what I witnessed tonight.
Bill and I were still anxiously waiting to see how long our luck
would last in the first row/center, and the then finally the house
lights went dim. We had known that Dylan groupies dominated the first
row, so when Joni came out to the sounds of "Big Yellow Taxi," we
screamed our heads off, and she looked right down at Bill and me! She
smiled at us so sweetly, looking genuinely grateful for our shouts and
chants, "JONI, JONI!!!!"
How did Joni look? Radiant! She appeared a good 15 years
younger than 54....She is even more beautiful in person. It's always
been my feeling that long shining hair adds youthfulness to certain
types of women. Im glad Joni seems to agree. Tonight she wore her hair
parted in the middle and straight, still looking like the Joni we all
fell in love with so many years ago. She wore a crushed velvet, avocado
tunic with a matching, floor-length skirt. Her color choices of warm
bronze and rich muted greens seem to reflect the sunny Autumn day we had
today in DC. As usual she managed to convey a sense of artistic
elegance and hippness unmatched by anyone I've ever known.
During the end of 'Taxi,' my front-row seat was taken by a
Joni-lovin' couple, armed with roses, and my heart sunk as I thought
about the drudgery of heading back to the primo location of the 15th
row on the floor, where I had abandoned my husband. But Im a lucky
person, well maybe not as lucky as those jmdlers in Detroit, but, by
gawd, I found an unoccupied aisle seat in the third row!!! Joni, of
course, did her Dylan impersonation, during "Taxi", and I looked around
at some of my "neighbors" who had strongly admitted that they were
there to see Dylan, and they LOVED hearing her doing Dylan! (A very
clever way to win over the Dylanheads from the start, I might add.) She
yelled, "Thank you Washington!!!"
Before Joni started "Just Like This Train," she began describing
getting over the flu, and apologizing to the audience, as I heard
requests for her oldies being shouted out. "I'm flemmish, what can I
say, I have the sniffles," she said very good-naturedly....as if to say,
"bear with me here for a minute....Ill do whatever I can do best
tonight." However, from where I sat, and I was close, she didn't
appear the least bit sick, and her voice sounded terrific.
Im not going to bore you with the same descriptions you've
already read about in other reports reviewing her overall,
well-rehearsed, cookie-cutter list set. Although the band was
extaordonary, and it was interesting for me to hear the unique spin they
put on Joni's music----I may have incorrectly sensed, with Joni, there
was a sort of "going through the motions" energy, which, in retrospect,
seemed more like foreplay, compared to later on in the set. Joni sung
the same songs she did in Rochester. Hejira was awesome, of course.
She left out "Free Man." And you know that I loved hearing them all,
especially "Black Crow," which I swear sounded more like Bryan Thomas's
version of "Black Crow." (For those of you who haven't heard the jmdl
Tribute Tape----jmdler Bryan Thomas, sang a R&B version of "Black Crow,"
which was sent to Joni last year.)
Look, Im no music writer, and her voice DOES sound
different, but during the concert, once Joni abandoned herself and gave
into the improvisational energy of "Troubled Man," it was then that I
got "it." The best was yet to come... Instead of longing to hear
"Blue" again, something more rich and golden and jazzy and sexy had
emerged and... It worked. The people around me thought so too. Some of
the women in my row, who I befriended, came to hear "Help Me" and
instead, were completely seduced by "Troubled Man"------because, when
Joni put down that VG 8, which, seems to block a lot of her electric,
expressive energy, for me at least, ---this is when the whole room could
sense---that Joni Mitchell had finally ***arrived.***
. From the back of the stage, she came forward giving us
her womanly, "bad-ass"-attitude-strut. (To see and feel the utter
sexual soulfulness of this woman--- come off so compellingly electric
was spellbinding-----and the audience was at a standstill.) Her stance
said that she was in charge, and had somethin' to say. She raised out
her arms, snapped her fingers and swayed her hips to accentuate Marvin
Gaye's lyrics. I thought to myself, "you go girl, Joni-----54 years
old and still torching the place!" The message was clear. She's not
getting older, she's getting better. Once again she is on the cutting
edge of capturing and defining another boomer's zeitgeist: I was
inspired and so was every other over-40 year old woman at the concert.
If Joni can still have "it" at 54, then so can we!
Vavoom..........taming what tiger? Certainly not hers. Mitchell
managed to empower the woman in *all* of us. The man in front of me
looked gaaagaaa. Joni was smmmmmmmokin' and her cigarette couldn't have
complimented the moment better....it was like a metaphor. After she
finished "Comes Love," everyone looked as if they could use a
cigarette. The woman next to me, asked me "Now how OLD is she? Gosh
does she look good, and whooooa can she sing."

2. You customise your screensaver, so that when you boot up in
windows 3.1 it says "Sweet chords rose up in waxed New England

3. You watch a movie on TV starring Warren Beattie, and try to work

Hey Now Joniphiles,
I'm at work the day after the Cole Field House show. What a great time.
Joni was in an upbeat mood and happy throughout......BUT.......she
seemed to be suffering from some flu-like symptons. She said she was
"flemish" as a kind of joke. We had 8th row center seats and the sound
was perfect. She was not distracted by the people getting to seats
late, but I was afraid she would be. She did get pesterred by a fly a
couple of times. She was apologetic and even said, towards the end,
that she felt she "short changed" us. Oh well......short change me any
day, we had a ball. She did the shortest set list so far. For those
keeping track it was the first time she cut out anything in the early
part of the show. To our dismay she did not do Free Man in Paris, as
well as, she did not do DJRD, Face Lift or Moon at the Window. The set
lists are getting shorter, I believe she is tired. But heck, she was
wonderful! We laughed, we cried, we hugged, I saw at least 10-12
friends from all different phases of my life there. The only other full
show I've seen was at Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia MD in 1983,
and it was awesome. I just got a tape of it last week, only took me 15
years to get that tape. I taped last night on a small walkman type
deck, sounds like crap, but a friend of mine taped also and I heard it
on the car stereo afterwards and it sounded good. I've got 10+ Joni
bootlegs, does anyone out there trade tapes? The only history I have to
admit to is that in 197?, I think '76, maybe '77 or '78, I bought 9
tickets to see Joni and the LA Express at Cole Field House and she
played 1/2 of the song "Help Me" and threw down her guitar and ran off
stage. We were freaked, they came out and told us she was sick and we
could get our money back.....what a bummer! She's also cancelled a
couple other times when she was scheduled to play around these here
parts (Maryland, DC) over the past 25 years. I still love her though,
she was beautiful last night, green velor, blond, smiles, sweet guitar.
This is my first post on the List.....this is a banner year for Joni and
all of us, I hope she keeps going for a long time to come. Gotta get
that new video, I don't have cable so I can't see it tonight.....damn!

Unfortunately, according to the schedule on the TCM website, it doesn't look

Subject: TTT-Review
From the Montreal Gazette, Saturday Oct.31 by Mary
Lamey
For those awaiting Court and Spark II or Return to
Blue, the vigil continues.
Mitchell has long since said goodbye to the pop
accessibility of those songs and moved into uncharted
territory where nothing so obvious as a tune helps
hapless listeners find their way.
This is not to say that TTT is without its quiet
pleasures. Mitchell's much anticipated follow-up to
the Grammy-winning Turbulent Indigo is loaded with
vivid imagery, humour, anger and passion.
With Mitchell, certain themes are eternal. She
offers us pointed meditations on being an outsider to
love, the music business and dull convention. She uses
humour to get her point across, as on acerbic Face
Lift, with its chorus "Happiness is the best face
lift". Man From Mars, another song from the Grace of
My Heart soundtrack, appears aimed at an ex-beau, but
in fact was written for an ex-cat.
Mitchell lets her guard down long enough to sing
the excitement of new romance on The crazy Cries of
Love and offers up a valentine, although in angular
mitchell fashion, on My Best
To You.
The words, as is always the case with Mitchell, are
bright, poetical and snap-shot clear.
The opening Harlem in Havana has "playing Night
Train so snakey, and "black girls dancing long and
leggy" in the shadow of a double Ferris wheel.
If only the music were as vivid. Once again,
Mitchell has wrapped her words in amorphous musical
settings. Her open tunings on the guitar, floating
keyboards, Wayne Shorter's noodley saxophone and Greg
Liesz's "peddle" (sic) steel guitar add up to
arrangements that are awash in atmosphere and short on
melody.

Did anyone else in Canada notice today's "TV Times" ad headlined "Exclusive
Engagement! The Queen of folk [!] performs some of her greatest hits. Joni
Mitchell Tonight at 9" The ad's photo of Joni is one I especially like, from
the TI promo era, I think. Joni's wearing a beanie on her head, a simple shirt
and a studded belt, .Her hair is straight; big wide smile on her face, head
tilted slightly to the left, and with one arm over the other thing. Funny
thing is, I think she's (of course) smoking. But the politically correct
Canadian Broadcasting Corp. has airbrushed the ciggie out of the photo.
The listing reads: JONI MITCHELL: COMES LOVE The singer performs and explains
her philosophy on life. (??)
Question: How long were the two concerts in the studio?
BTW: The ad features Sunday's other big event on the CBC: "In My Life",
Beatles producer George Martin's reinterpretations of his fave Fab-4 tunes.
The photo features Canada's other reigning Diva, Céline, who (kinda kinky)
seems to be sitting in Sir George's lap. What a fun night!

2 Joni Mitchells - on TV and album - are both worthwhile
Friday, November 6, 1998
By Ray Mark Rinaldi\
Of The Post-Dispatch
There are two Joni Mitchells out there these days. One that's secure,
satisfied and serious.
The other, well, you don't want to mess with her.
Meet the gentle Joni tonight during "Painting With Words and Music," the
legendary artist's interesting foray into the world of Pay-Per-View TV.
Or dance with the dark Joni on "Taming the Tiger," her new, and 19th,
album. Both are rare offerings from an artist who has been something of
a recluse in recent years.
And both are pleasing efforts - though one can get a little angry. With
"Taming the Tiger" Mitchell (after three decades of performing) shows
some new sides. She actually gets sentimental on "Man From Mars," and
she offers an unusual instrumental number with "Tiger Bones."
But what stands out is Mitchell's venting. She's always been famous for
protest songs (remember "Big Yellow Taxi," the song mixed into Janet
Jackson's last hit?). But this time there's an edge. She takes on the
power brokers in "No Apologies," a song that contends lawyers are
"laying America to waste."
In the title track she pummels the hypocritical music business where
"one false move and you're a goner." As for new records, they stink
("every disc/a poker chip," she sings) As for successful new artists,
they can stink, too ("Formula Music/Girlie guile/Genuine
Junkfood/Juvenile").
Who can blame Joni for being bitter? For the last 20 years, she's put
out amazing material and scored Grammy victories. Still, she's locked
into the public consciousness as the aging hippie who sang "Circle Game"
in 1969. Critics pine for the old stuff, or worse, ignore her, all the
while dubbing every new female "the next Joni Mitchell." Radio wouldn't
touch her and she hardly registers in the on-going pop culture
discussion we all seem to be having.
But let her steam. It's good for the rest of us. "Taming the Tiger" is
full of little masterpieces. Mitchell does the producing, a return to
the glory days of "Hejira" and "Court and Spark." The result is an
honest and daring album. The highlights: the exotic "Harlem in Havana,"
the sexy "Crazy Cries of Love" and a cynicism-free cover of the Sons of
the Pioneer's "My Best to You."
Optimism prevails as well on the TV show, a charming evening spent with
a relaxed pro. Mitchell designed the set, herself in the center and her
audience around her on sofas.
With ex-husband Larry Klein playing bass, she pulls out favorites like
"Woodstock" and "Taxi" and performs four songs from the revered
"Hejira." She covers Billie Holiday's "Comes Love" and Marvin Gaye's
"Trouble Man."
Her guitar playing and her singing have never been better, and the
arrangements add new tricks to familiar material. This is a fan-friendly
show that lets Mitchell hold the line creatively while remaining
accessible to those who only know the old stuff.
Joni Mitchell's television special, "Painting With Words and Music,"
airs at 8 tonight on Pay-Per-View. Check with your local cable company
for availability.

Is this a story you're working on for the 2nd annual JMDL writers' contest?
I think you should develop it! I started writing one about the planet of
SIQUOMB. The two could work together...The old prophet before he dies says
a queen will be born to lost inhabitants of SIQUOMB; gathering them
together with her music. Their goal is to get themselves back to the

To me,writing a song is akin to germinating a seed. You now
have a seedling but if it will grow or not depends on many
factors. What this tree will actually look like in 10 or 20
years is anybody's guess.Artists will change their songs for
many reasons such as ,the mood they are in at the time as we
have heard with Joni doing Sex Kills,playing a certain song
with a different instrument or just the fact that their
playing style has evolved.
Many many reasons.A song ,as long as it is played, is a
living, evolving thing.

Well, I have only recently discovered the wonderful Jonatha. In England,
she isn't very well-known (try getting her CDs here, and you'll see what

on a compilation tape they made for me. I simply fell in love with those
songs, and her voice, immediately. I now have my own copy of 10 cent
wings (I begged my US friend to find a copy for me!), and have Plumb on
order thanks to another US net-friend. Jonatha's website is very
impressive too......I guess I have a "thing" for articulate, melodic
female artists (I bought 4 Sarah McLachalan albums in one day last
month!).

Since I was very young I've had the "memory" of being a hungry boy somewhere
(India? Egypt?). Due to this I rarely take more food that I know I can
finish and I always try to clean my plate. I believe strongly that wasting
food is one of the greatest sins.
When I was 10, I traveled to Gettysburg, PA, for the first time and had the
overwhelming impression that I had been Jennie Wade, a civilian woman who was
accidently killed during the Civil War. The 1860s remain my favorite period
of American history.
A good friend of mine studies past lives and does regressions. She thinks I
was her horse when she was a Native American boy, and she says that explains
why when I'm driving and someone else is in my car I don't pay good attention
to what's going on -- essentially, my "rider" is navigating. (I'm an
excellent driver when I'm alone in the car.)
