Jazz inflections helped shape such classic Mitchell works as Court and Spark and The Hissing of Summer Lawns. Mitchell, who has recorded with jazz saxophonists Tom Scott and Wayne Shorter, collaborated most famously with bassist Charles Mingus just before his death in 1979. Here, she releases a collection that traces the rise and fall of a romantic relationship mainly through jazz standards. The conceit partly justifies arranger Vince Mendoza's sumptuous backing. He employs an oversized orchestra with such luminaries as Shorter and pianist Herbie Hancock occasionally in the foreground. Following old habits, Mitchell begins to find tragedy by the third tune, "Comes Love," and continues plumbing love's sad side for nine more songs. It seems almost a source of inspiration that Mitchell's talented ex-husband, Larry Klein, coproduced the session. Mitchell is gutsy even to attempt some songs, such as "Stormy Weather." Too often, though, she sounds like Billie Holiday and Betty Carter. Mitchell also seems more careful and controlled than on her free-flowing Mingus collaboration. The studied feel is too pronounced. But the large orchestral pieces lodge in the mind and become oddly haunting. Mitchell, now 56, spins these slow tunes from rich experience. She reinterprets only two originals, "A Case of You" from her epic Blue album and the title track, a reverent reworking with lavish strings that still produces goose bumps. The settings seem too Sinatraesque - - sometimes Both Sides Now sounds like a film noir soundtrack - but Mitchell is among the best jazz singers outside jazz. - Karl Stark ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 01 May 2000 23:01:47 +0100 From: catman Subject: Re: Hillary standing by her man NJC i think hillary knew that divorce/seperation would > ruin bill's political career (and possibly her own in the process). i think > she rode that coaster as long as she could because she knew it was the only > way to hold on to the possibility of her own political aspirations.

Leonard" Subject: Re: Flo and Eddie (NJC) Hi, everybody. I just thought I'd throw in my 2 cents re Flo and Eddie (Howard Kaylan and Mark Volman)... Those guys were the main forces behind the LA-based band the Turtles ("Happy Together," "She'd Rather Be With Me," "Elenore," etc.) in the mid-to-late-'60s. They were later recruited by Frank Zappa for the Mothers Of Invention in the early-'70s, and appear to great effect on the classic Live At The Fillmore East album and in the film 200 Motels (and on its soundtrack album). Their serio-comic albums as Flo and Eddie appeared in the late-'70s and early-'80s. I'm not sure what, if anything, they're up to these days, but I think they still appear as background vocalists on occasion.

Her fabulous voice and guitar work took my breath away especially on John Prine's "Angel From Montgomery," Bonnie Raitt has some competition I saw Sonia Dada** in Chicago November of 1995 with another local Chicago band The Freddy Jones Band. They played at the Aragon Ballroom which is an old Big Band dance hall; the dance floor there was built on springs to facilitate the swing dancers back then and during the performances as the crowd rocked it was awesome to see all the heads bob in perfect time as the dance floor bounced under them. Ben Harper live is a sight and sound to behold, I saw him a couple of years ago, again with the Freddy Jones Band as they both set the stage for a performance by Dave Matthews at the same venue Joni will be playing in May (Pine Knob) I'm not sure what listening area KINK covers, but it sounds like my kind of station :) Cassy ** point of interest about Sonia Dada... lead guitarist Dan Pritzker is a wealthy man in his own right... his family is the Pritzker family who own the Hyatt Hotel chain (about 10% of their total holdings) ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 1 May 2000 18:11:43 -0700 From: "Mark or Travis" Subject: Re: today's musics (SJC) I'm assuming that Spice Girls and a few other > of these engineered 'boy & girl' bands falls into this category.

I won't be manipulated by some media savvy mogul! There really isn't anything new about this. As long as there's been rock & roll there's been teeny-bopper, bubble-gum whatever you want to call innocuous pop music that's designed to sell to teenagers. Remember the Monkees? Or how about Shelley Fabares, Annette Funicello and Frankie Avalon? Or any one of a number of teen idol personalities who were sort of thrust into the recording industry & then onto the young record buying public. Were they great, creative, innovative musical artists? No. Did many of us embrace them & buy all their records? Hell yes! And when you come to think of it 'She Loves You, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah', 'I Wanna Hold Your Hand' and 'Little Surfer Girl' ain't exactly what you'd call deep, either. Every generation has it's share of pop culture garbage. Why should we deny the latest one theirs? From Joni's point of view, I think she does have a bit of a right to rant about some of the people that get compared to her. But then Joni's so far ahead of almost anybody in the business that it's really unfair to compare anybody to her. I have from time to time written less than flattering things about Madonna & Michael Yarborough & others have faithfully defended her. I'm not about to change my opinion of 'Maddy' but I do think there is a certain amount of generational prejudice toward some of today's popular music present on this list. Rap, hip-hop - how many of us over 40 would even bother to try & really listen to any of it? For me a lot of this has to do with not really being all that interested in music that appeals to teens or 20 somethings. That part of my life is over & done. But I don't think we can completely dismiss what younger people are listening to and say it's all bad, either. And don't we all love to hear the music that was popular when we were in high school? And not all of that was classic stuff, imo.

I listened to Susan Tedeschi (pronounced Te-dess-kee) and her debut album and was blown away by that one-of-a-kind vocal style. And she seems to be having a rollickingly good time while doing it. Although not exactly of the same genre or voice, she reminded me so much of Christine McVie, June Tabor and Bonnie Raitt all at the same time. I sometimes think that being an artist in an independent label makes them do a lot of things that more established recording studios may not permit. Susan's album seems to be that. > If you take the time to go beyond what the DJs constantly spin on the Top-40 > stations, you will find that there really are some wonderful newer talents. I hope there's a radio format that plays music most pop stations ignore. Something like "Uncommercial Music" but then playing its music will commercialize them :)) There used to be a radio station in Manila called Kiss Jazz 10-11 (101.1) that plays Cleo Laine next to George Winston and Manhattan Transfer: it was that eclectic but it didn't stay long. Someone said its because of its unmarketability and that advertisers shy away from stations with no "formats". Too bad. I would want to listen to diverse music in one station, so that I can listen to Dead Can Dance then Helen Morgan then Steely Dan then Milton Nascimento and then Workshy. I guess not too many people likes that format.

What's funny about this is that if you asked any girl between 5 and 13 (when the Spice Girls were in their prime) what they liked about Spice, the girls replied that it was about girl power. Now I'm not defending the pop machine, but I will say that the message resonated with alot of young girls (I worked on both Spice projects so I'm speaking from experience). It gave them confidence. I turned my nose up at it at first, (caring more about Massive Attack and Ben Harper) then I learned what it meant to these young girls. I'm sure other teen pop acts resonate somehow with pre-teens like the girls I met. Let's just hope that they get exposed to musicians like Joni as they grow up. It'll only reinforce what they already know.

Other songs that I think can be made to look creepy, cruel or mean depending on the singers are: (1) One Hand, One Heart - a character of David Lynch's movie can make this paean to love sound gruesome. (2) Bye Bye Blackbird - or how Ian McKellen's character in APT PUPIL can bring new meaning to this torch song.
