(cheating by exceeding the 2PER limit, tho perfectly understandable, will NOT be helpful!) of course, i'd be interested in hearing your thoughts behind your choices, but that is entirely optional..." - Rick Some requests are just two hard ;-~ I am curious as to which songs you have already sent him, so as to avoid duplication. Here's my list (I have left off many personal favorites, and having said that, will offer no reasons for my choices - No Apologies, either. STAS Michael From Mountains and Cactus Tree Clouds Midway and I Think I Understand LOTC The Priest and Woodstock (starting to get really tough - left off 2 or 3 greats) Blue Blue and A Case of You (truly impossible problem - at least TLTISR not lost) FTR Lesson in Survival / Let the Wind Carry Me (ouch, ouch) C&S Down to You Raised on Robbery (versatility) MOA Cold Blue Steel and Woman of Heart and Mind (Ha !) HOSL In France They Kiss on Main Street and Shadows and Light (my guess is you already included some of the jazzier ones on the other tape) Hejira Coyote and Song for Sharon DJRD Dreamland and DJRD (ouch ouch, ouch ouch) S&L Amelia and Hejira (throw in Pat's solo, of course - mandatory) Skip to the 90's (Mingus, WTRF, DED and CMIAR later) NRH Slouching Toward Bethlehem and Come In From the Cold (very even album) TI Last Chance Lost and Magdelan Laundries (ouch, ouch) TTT Crazy Cries of Love and Face Lift (Joni's Choices per PWWAM) BSN BSN and A Case of You What a tape - I'll send the missing 4 in a later post. PS When you are done, maybe you should make multiple copies and send them to the whole list for cost plus royalties to Joni ;-) PPS He doesn't need BYT or Chelsea Morning for levity - he's a jazzer ;-), Bob S.

As a guy who never thought about wearing white lace, Song for Sharon is the one I've begun to skip past when playing the CD, having heard it's eight minutes of droning enough times to last me a while.

Which song is going to be more interesting to him musically? The Circle Game is a great song, but I'd suggest The Priest is more apropos for the MIT prof.

Makes me think of 'Cat on a Hot Tin Roof' when Big Daddy passes by Big Mama, Mae, Gooper and their 'no-neck monsters' to get into Maggie the Cat's convertible. Ah, Liz was quite the dish in those days, wasn't she? 'One of those no-neck monstahs threw ice cream at me!' (and Paul Newman was quite the dish, too!) Mark in Seattle ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 1 Jul 2001 22:25:50 -0700 From: "Kakki" Subject: C Karma, Joni bandmates and painting in LA last night This was the week for JMDL'er visits to LA! Chris Coccaro (our "C Karma") is in from NYC this week shooting a commercial and surprised me with a email. We got together last night and ran around the town having a good old "Joni" time. Les told me of the resturant in Venice where a lone Joni painting hangs so we had a wonderful dinner there and I got up the nerve to be gauche enough to snap a photo ;-) (with permission). The abstract painting is very pretty and has a quality of changing hues and textures as you move around it. We then raced off to The Baked Potato in North Hollywood where Clark, thankfully, was holding some space for us at the bar and composing a new song. Joni band veterans and legends Vinnie Colaiuta (WTRF, DED & NRH) and Michael Landau (WTRF, DED, Chalkmark & TI) were playing with Abe Laboriel, Sr. and Greg Mathieson were playing together, billed as the "Dyno-Four." Oh and were they ever! I was wishing Lahm or Fred Simon could have been there to adequately describe what we were hearing. They seemed to go through one long continuous riff of every style of West Coast jazz of the past 30 years. They were tremendously energetic and absolutely stunning. The crowd went wild after every performance. The guys were so into it and seemed so happy to be playing together - they would cheer, hug and high-five each other after almost every song. They all seem like such great people. Afterward, Chris, Clark and I hung outside on the sidewalk and talked about all kinds of things for over an hour and then Chris and I headed back down to Hollywood and cruised along Sunset blasting and singing DJRD. Chris also told us many great stories about a wonderful conversation with Joni's dad and his time at the Mendel exhibit in Saskatoon a year ago today. It was such a happy surprise to meet Chris, whose posts I always enjoy and I'm so glad he looked us up. I've added some photos of the LA JMDL'ers get-togethers with Gary Zack and Chris (and the Joni painting ;-) at the link below.
