Not me. The lyric of "My Funny Valentine" is a great example of romantic realism in the tradition of Shakespeare's sonnet "My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun" My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun; Coral is far more red than her lips' red; If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun; If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head. I have seen roses damasked, red and white, But no such roses see I in her cheeks; And in some perfumes is there more delight Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks. I love to hear her speak, yet well I know That music hat a far more pleasing sound; I grant I never saw a goddess go,- My mistress, when she walks, treads on the ground. And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare As any she belied with false compare Speaking as one whose figure is less than Greek, I really like lyrics and poems for real people that tell it like it is ("My Romance" is another one). Rather than be insulted, I would take comfort in knowing that I'm being loved for the truly important things. - -Fred ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 05 Jan 1999 17:14:49 +0000 From: klempner@email.unc.edu (Mark Klempner) Subject: weepies (NJC) Joseph put on his list of weepies: >1.

Hey all: I'm kinda new to the list. I've been a JM fan since the early 80s and have liked her stuff since it first came out. Every once in a while, I pull out my copy of Hejira and listen to it on my low to mid range audiophile system. Recently, I after a listen, I decided to take it to a friends house that has more $ tied up in his system than most small houses cost. i.e. his interconnect cables from the preamp to the two big amps across the living room costs about twice what I paid for my system. (In case you want to know for him: all Mark Levinson preamp/transport/process/amp and a pair of huge Magnapan flat panel ribbon speakers plus subwoofer). I've noticed before that CDs that I have played on his system sound sooo much better on his system than mine. (but honestly not $50,000+ more). Well, a little upgrade for me has been in order. After a couple mods (new cables, speaker/listener placement, etc) my little system is really sounding good. Joni is just barely right of center and well focused. You can hear every breath both IN and out. And almost hear her tounge hitting her teeth before each word. Close your eyes and turn it up a little, and I swear she is in my living room. I used to work sound/lights for a live band here in Houston and I kinda know what real live music sounds like and especially acoustic music. But ole' Jaco is distorting my low end with his excellent bass. So, more mods are in planning. I'm blown away with the two of them (Jaco/Joni) plus Larry Carlton on the songs they do on that LP: Coyote, title track, and Black Crow. So, the point of my email, is if you don't have a really nice system, you owe yourself a listen on one. Take a Joni CD down to one of your really good Audiophile stores and ask for a demo using it. You will be amazed what a good system can do, especially for female vocals.

Well, I didn't expect the Spanish Inquisition. Or Monty Python references, which makes me wonder if Joni is a fan of the Boys from Britain (and one from the U.S. of A). One of those random thoughts. I admit that I don't own many of these top albums myself, either. I have the excuse of NOT BEING BORN when most were released. Don Juan was released the year of my birth, but I think before the day, and I'm not sure about Steely Dan's, but as for the rest. I have all the Joni stuff, of course. I'm going to show my ignorance here... but what's the big deal over Dylan. All my life I've heard about how great Bob Dylan is, and then I go and listen. I wasn't Wow!ed like I was the first time I heard Joni (which incidentally was "A Case of You."). Yes, he has some pretty great lyrics, I would even call them masterful at times. But I don't get the urgency or emotion I get from other artists, or knowing that you're good and playing with it (which I get with Joni's later work). I know I have to be missing something. Everyone else out there can't be wrong... then again, it's happened before. Alan - 1 Whole World - 0. Can we say MEGALOMANIA, boys and girls? Then again, I'm handicapped: I was born in the Disco phase, grew up through the Big Hair Band phase, and started to really appreciate music at the dawn of hip-hop and alternative. But I also can't think of a single artist whom I would consider brilliant who's career started after 1975. Any suggestions?

I've owned all (except Astral Weeks) at one point or another. However, I was weaned on my beloved Beatles.

For me at least, TTT is a more difficult leap of faith. However, as time flies by it's truth becomes more and more apparent. Where as, TI is more blatantly steeped in traditional sounds of acoustic guitar and "old" Joni production (for lack of a better description), the academy of recording arts and sciences passed over TTT for probably the same initial response that many people have had. Not all, but many. I've been watching some of the "What Happened To" series on VH1, where the one hit wonders and the like are tracked down years later. Men At Work's lead singer Colin describes the Grammy he received as something like "the kiss of death award". Joni's recent heavy years of accolades and honors were her cue, smart person that she is, to read between the lines. Albeit, this can come across as being ungrateful she's dealing with an added dimension of being a long term player in the business that so easily spits you out after a season. God Bless her brains and talent. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 05 Jan 1999 22:58:34 -0800 (PST) From: "bern.gallagher" Subject: Fw: (NJC) Irresponsible REPs, etc. I know we're all sick-to-death of this issue, but the part that really gets me, even more than the perjury issue, is that our president is a sexual harrasser. I don't buy this BS (Wally's sense) about harrassment only counting if your job suffers (some rule made up by men). Being harrassed on the job, especially by someone as powerful as the Prez. is a really shitty thing. I hate what the Republicans are doing (Watergate dies hard - Hopefully the've all been vicariously infected with Gulf War syndrome, those jerks!) and I know they're a bunch of hypocrites, but Clinton really is a sleaze. Who knows how many women have been scuzzed by him. No doubt about it: he's a total pig. If only Tipper wouldn't become First Lady if he's impeached! Of course, all this is IMHO.
