I jumped on the Joni train with two of these albums. The first time I ever really listened to a Joni song was in 87 or 88. I was living in Austin at the time, and my ex and I were breaking up. Prior to breaking up, we had planned a trip to San Diego. The plane tickets must have been nonrefundable, because we went anyway. In the meantime, he decided to move to San Diego, and called ahead to a friend there who found a cottage for him to rent. So we both went there, and I helped clean and fix up the cottage he was going to move into. (This was NOT a fun vacation.) Anyway, I was sitting on a milk crate in the middle of this cottage, alone, listening to the radio. A song caught my attention and spoke to me. When the dj came on later to announce the set he had just played, I wrote down "Dog Eat Dog" by Joni Mitchell. I don't remember which song it was, but it was from that album. When I got back to Austin, I immediately went out in search of DED. I couldn't find it, so I bought CMIARS.

Treacy" Subject: Jonatha VLJC Scott wrote "If Jo is the "next Joni Mitchell" then the material on her latest album "Steady Pull" must be her version of "Dog Eat Dog," and the 3-extra-track-Borders-only CDs analogous to the BSN-LE fiasco." WOW! Do you really feel as though "Steady Pull" is THAT musically overblown??? Personally, I love the sound and overall feel of the record. If sh'd gone ahead and made "Ten Cent Wings" pt.2, I think I'd really feel jipped, but I welcome the expansion of sound that's happened with Jonatha. Plus, to have heard her do stripped down versions of a few of the new tunes @ Borders, it's quite plain that the changes are subtle. Jonatha has been playing with dissonant harmonics since the early days, but uses it as a tool to keep you listening and on your toes. Keep trying - - "Steady Pull" will pull through - I guarentee it! - -Chris NP: "Wild Night" - N'degeocello and Mellencamp ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 16 Feb 2001 20:10:34 -0500 From: "Christopher J. Treacy" Subject: Jonatha Again NJC Don wrote: "To my ear and lyrical sensibility, and in my singular and uniquely heterosexural, white, male viewpoint; Jonatha Brooke is just another mid-90's 'Vague Suzannah' -- as Morrissey once put it. Every CD of her's I've ever purchased now graces the shelves of my local used record shop. Sorry folks -- I'm just missin' the religion here." You sure are, Don, you SURE are. First of all, Morrissey, though a talented man in many respects, is one of the most miserable, pessimistic and dismissive queens to have evolved into the public eye, and quoting him sells you short. When I was 16, I saw the Smiths in NYC, and it was a pinnacle-of-youth sort of experience. As I grow older, my tolerance for his whining and bad attitude has waned, and that's just the point...it works when you're 16. As I've been trying to plug "Steady Pull" to the naysayers this past week, it has dawned on me that Jonatha Brooke's music is an acquired taste. The complexities of her writing, both lyrically and musically, only reveal themselves and begin to make sense after repeated listens. Better to earn the vague suzannah title is someone like Jewel, whose presentation is fairly much out on the table from the get go - it requires very little from the listener and is good for napping. Jonatha transcends. - -Chris ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 16 Feb 2001 19:15:02 -0800 From: Michael Paz Subject: FW: American Masters: Bob Marley (NJC) - ---------- From: Michael Paz Date: Fri, 16 Feb 2001 19:14:40 -0800 To: Subject: Re: American Masters: Bob Marley (NJC) Robertico Great to hear from you.

The Gods smiled on me once again today. I received by UPS, a 1960 Gibson Les Paul Reissue, sent to me by those wonderful people at Ultimate Support Systems. The guitar is a beautiful cheery sunburst (like the one Pagey played for all those Zep years). Its gorgeous! I had received a card from them asking me to stop by their booth at the NAMM show, which i always do anyways, and drop the card in their box to enter for a bunch of prizes. I was hoping for the Roland V-Drum system (the percussion players equivalant to the VG-8, but instead I got the guitar. I can't believe it. This is the second time I have won something from them, the first was a silver anniversary silver apex keyboard stand (which is right behind me as I speak). It must be the good company I kept at the NAMM show, so thanks to all my JMDL buddies that brought me good luck this year. What are you guys doing next January??? I haven't decided to keep it as I own the Parker concert Fly, four Strats, five acoustics, and a bass. Me thinks I may turn it in to some other toys I need in the studio.

Highlights: Release date is now May 1 Singers contributing their talent include Sarah McLaughlin, Macy Gray, Dixie Chick Natalie Maines and Sheryl Crow, who also produced and collaborated on five of the tracks. Crow is also credited as co-author of "Sorceress", which, considering it is an old song of Stevie's, must have been rewritten or revised by Crow. Other producers include John Shanks and Pierre Marchand. Some song titles: Too Far From Texas/Bombay Sapphire/ Love Is/It's Only Love (a Crow composition).Two singles are planned: the "guitar charged" Planets of the Universe and the "sweet, string-laden" Everyday. US tour planned to run from June to Sept. featuring mainly classic material. There will be a showcase performance in LA shortly before the release date. The author says the CD shows Nicks in "her finest musical form since...Bella Donna..." Reprise label exec Rich Fitzgerald says "It's the record her die-hard fans have waited for.." nicks-fix.com will offer streaming samples of "Everyday" in late Feb/early March. Confirmed TV appearances include Letterman and Rosie O'Donnell.

You can tell that I really love my grandson that I would voluntarily go to a Chuck E. Cheese, but it's his birthday and he wanted to close the place, and in fact, we did. That's because the last hour, when most people have left, I crawl through the sky tubes with him. It really is fun to crawl through those things but I only do it when the crowd has thinned... Anyway on the way we were looking at the sunset and there were some beautiful clouds and Gage says, "Poppa, what are clouds for?" and my answer was... ... as it would be any JMDLer and please say it with me... "Clouds, they only block the sun, they rain and shine on everyone, so many things I would have done, but clouds got in my way." The actual number of Joni quotes that come up in my grandparenting is amazing. I haven't gotten it all worked out yet, but grandparenting with Joni lyrics is possible. Of course every time we go into a store I switch to the MC Hammer method of child rearing: "Can't touch this, can't touch this, can't touch this..."

Though I haven't kept up with her last couple of efforts, I can endorse 'Watermark' in particular. I expect she gets strong support from her producers and co-writers but I think her work holds up pretty well and compares very favorably to the more forgettable 'new age' artists she is often grouped with. Joni has been given (by someone who apparently knows?) a 10 to 1 chance of winning the best female pop Grammy. But I wouldn't be terribly surprised to see her win. Very happy she's going to be a presenter. While I'm at it, if anyone has time, can you send me instructions on how to use this damned list?
