This man is class, but so also is his record label, ECM, and its producer/main man, Manfred Eicher, and so is their recording studio....Rainbow Studio, Oslo. Have always held the view that Larry Klein wrecked Joni's career . She should have turned to the likes of Manfred Eicher and used Garbarek's group consisting of JG, Rainer Bruninghaus (piano), Eberhard Weber (bass), Nana Vasconcelos (percussion) to show again how it can be done. Check out also:- 'Personal Mountains' by Keith Jarrett with JG in backing group,(listen out for KJ's "wow" after a particularly fine JG solo. 'Dis' by JG with Ralph Towner on acoustic guitars. You can even hear Benny Goodman playing through the pinewood trees on this one. (use of windharp helps). 'Folk Songs' by JG, Charlie Haden (bass) and Egberto Gismonti (guitars). 'I Took Up The Runes' by JG Group. And for those interested in the Hilliard Ensemble, check out their "Passio" by Arvo Part on ECM and produced by ME, as are the JG with HE two collaborations. Pat Metheny/Lyle Mays had a productive period on ECM and Keith Jarrett is also on ECM...check out his 'Koln Concert', probably the finest live and living solo piano concert you are ever likely to hear. Try WWW.ecmrecords.com for more details, but their prices are expensive.

It's a wonderful little place, although a slight drawback is that you're not meant to talk during the music, so we didn't exchange too many words! He's a great guy, and it's good to meet another lister in the capital. Anyway, for lovers of good and often great, (mostly) acoustic music, you can't beat the Kashmir Klub. I'd strongly recommend it to any listers in town, wherever you're from. In fact, if you want to get an idea of what it's like, have a look at their website, which is www.kashmirklub.com Time for bed, sleep well y'all Azeem ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 24 Nov 1999 15:59:48 -0800 From: "Mioi Hanaoka" Subject: win Joni Mitchell stuff!

Thanksgiving has always had an extra emotional edge for me; moreso than Arbor Day or July 4th celebrations. Thanksgiving 1980, I told my mother that I was pregnant and not planning to get married, all while she was taking the bird out of the oven. (floor grit gave it that extra ping). Thanksgiving 1982, I told my mother that I was leaving everything behind and taking a cross country hejira for 3 months. (this time I waited until after dinner was served.) Thanksgiving 1994, I took my first steps into the, (at the time), black hole of single parenthood. Thanksgiving 1995, I dealt with the aftermath of my father's death and my mother's first major holiday without him. Thanksgiving 1998, my oldest daughter took stuffing preparation time to finally clear the air of her stored up resentments. (extra salt did the flavoring). Thanksgiving after Thanksgiving after Thanksgiving, I had bombshell after bombshell after bombshell. (with the exception of one Easter dinner). And now, all these Thanksgivings later, I can say that life is good and I am blessed. And blessed not in the least because of the incredible people that I know through this list. Thank you one and all, my love goes out to so many of you whom I have met and all of you who lurk in the wings.

One of my dogs has had horrible seizures about 5 times now, and they have all occurred during a full moon. The veterinarian says it's just a coincidence, but I don't think so. Luckily my little Yorkie was fine last night, but I still get a little nervous when there's a full moon.

NOT?!?!) and I hate to say this, but fried turkey sounds disgusting. I'll now give my best David Sedaris imitation on the subject: Look, I love the whole Norman Rockwell-Thanksgiving-family thing, but let's not pretend that live turkeys are in fact---god-ugly to look at. I mean what was God thinking? Just maybe Satan created the turkey. Think about it: a homely animal completely unworthy of pet status of any kind---- but delicious to consume in mass quantities... Im thinking greed, avarice, gluttony, see what I mean? (I'll have to rent "Seven" again to give you all 7, but you get the picture.) So guys what do you think, was it Sidaris-ish sounding? ***Roberto wrote: > By the way, on the flight to Boston, they showed a wonderful film called > My Life So Far.

Went to see Tim Burton's "The Legend of Sleepy whatchamacallit...." I don't think that there is any other director but Burton---who's fingerprints are readily identifiable in every single tiny aspect of each and everyone of his movies. (Like Joni, he always seems to be saying, "Look peeopoole, (yawn) I'm an artist first.") This is a good thing if you are a Burton fan because ----his artistic nuances (set design)are just as important as the actors---which for me---is a real different experience in movie watching. Of course I wouldn't be telling you the complete truth if I didn't mention that Johnny Depp is SO easy on the eyes. He has never looked so good and thanks to his former squeeze, KateMoss, he's got his British accent down pat.........as opposed to Christina Ricci who gives new meaning to 'broken english' or 'barely british.'. Did Tim Burton, (who should have channeled Richard here,) not budget for a linguistic coach for Christina-Eyes-Like-A-Chihauha-Ricci? Anyway the movie was suspenseful, funny (I kept seeing glimpses of Mike Myer's German Performance Artist, "Deeter" in Depp's performance.) and appropriately gruesome and violent. (I admit that I handle 'period picture' violence better than modern day stuff.) -Juliezwebb, off to bed after snacking on some "Captain Crunch" while typing---which reminds me to one day write about that fasinating subject: keyboard hazards > > ------------------------------ End of JMDL Digest V4 #531 ************************** The Song and Album Voting Booths are open!
