It's amazing how so many artists and musicians quote Joni as their inspiration. We've been reading a lot about it lately, but I also remember some time ago that Nils Petter Molvaer (a wonderful Norwegian trumpet player and composer) included Joni on his list of inspiration. And now Craig Armstrong (a composer made famous for the Moulin Rouge soundtrack)includes Joni on his influence list; check this at: http://www.craigarmstrong.com/influence.html Raf _________________________________________________________________ Chat with friends online, try MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 12 Jun 2002 08:23:49 -0400 From: Jerry Notaro Subject: Re: (family) jewels(njc) Victor Johnson wrote: > I'm begininning to believe more and more that Asheville is a very unusual > place, a spiritual hub where unusual things can happen.........

He does tend to "bend" notes a bit, but then so does Joni." I could probably wrack my feeble brain and come up with some outstanding examples of Joni bending notes (the chorus of "In France, They Kiss On Main Street" immediately springs to mind--although maybe that's a better example of stretching notes). But has anyone else thought that Joni was just plain FLAT on the last, drawn-out "awaaaaaayyyy" from the chorus of "Peoples' Parties?" I love the song, but this is a not-so-minor annoyance every time I hear it. Mary P. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 12 Jun 2002 13:27:43 EDT From: Murphycopy@aol.com Subject: literature in joni - a ball you can run with! First, marvelous Mags brought these lines from Shakespeare to our attention: << "O, she doth teach the torches to burn bright! > It seems she hangs upon the cheek of night > ******As a rich jewel in an Ethiop's ear****** >> Then Lamadoo wrote: << the site needs the obverse to the "Joni in Literature". Maybe "Literature In Joni"? >> And kind Kate chimed in with: << yes, one of my fav joni lines, you stood out like a ruby in a black man's ear... ...very cool observation mags! can this be considered for the joni in literature part of the website? >> Then Mags added: << that's what I was hoping Kate :-)) >> And Ruthie said: << Maybe JMDL should start a Classic Literature in Joni listing. >> Good news, Mags, Jim, Kate and Ruthie! In my experience, all you have to do is ask and Les Irvin will help you make your JMDL dream come true! As for me, I'M NOT GOING NEAR THIS ONE WITH A TEN FOOT POLE! When I first proposed the Joni in FIction part of the JMDL site last January, I thought I would be researching 5 or 10 books. As of today, there are 71 entries in 6 categories -- Books, Films, Poetry, Plays, TV and Miscellaneous. And there are more coming in every day -- literally! -- from alert JMDLers everywhere. (I have 4 or 5 more that have come in over the last couple of days that I haven't even gotten to yet.) But Literature in Joni? I can't even begin to figure out how to do this. (As it is, Joni in Fiction has my local librarians looking at me strangely because my requests for books have become so eclectic over the last 6 months!) OK, for the above Shakespeare quotation, I get it -- you'd just include the name of the play, the 3 lines, the act and scene numbers, attribute them to Shakespeare, and you're done. But what about a Joni line such as, "Like Icarus ascending on beautiful foolish arms?" Do you then write a synopsis of the story of Dedalus and Icarus? Transcribe someone else's translation from some ancient Greek text? Or find something on the Web and provide a link? Do you also include other literary references to this myth, such as in a Yeats poem, for example? And then, where would you stop? After you get done with all the biblical allusions, with the Shakespeare, the Yeats, and the Boho Dance -- would "The Magdalene Laundries" fit into the Literature in Joni section? I believe there was a book written about the situation, but is it literature? Then, would you provide a link to the book or write your own synopsis of the whole tragic case? My head is spinning . . . Don't get me wrong -- I think the idea of Literature in Joni is a wonderful idea and I would love to see it become a part of the JMDL site. But from my experience I know that this project would take more time than I have to offer. (Plus, I want to spend my time taking Joni in Fiction into another direction I haven't even talked to Les about yet.) The very simple Joni in Fiction idea took 5 months from concept to reality, and it would still be just a dream if I hadn't had much-needed help from Les Irvin and Lori Fye. But if anyone out there does have the time to make Literature in Joni happen - -- go for it! If Les likes the idea, you'll find that he's wonderful to work with and very patient. And when it's finally online, you will have created something that will make you feel proud -- and will make us all more enlightend about Joni.

Cool bio: born in London from South Indian parents, raised in Australia, studied indian vocalists in India. First album made in London with musicians from "57 countries". She adapts 18th century indian music with her new material. Interesting, not my favorite cup of (Indian) tea but very likely to please Joni fans. 2) Much more heart wrenching to my taste is Sarah-Jane Morris. A cross between Sherelle Carey Smith and Tom Waits. Excerpts taken from the liners note that I think are very true: "Deciding what kind of singer Sarah-Jane Morris is -at least by the standards applied to record store displays-may be a fruitless task. But if she is not "just" a jazz singer, anymore than she is just a soul singer, or a contemporary blues artist, her performances are always models of powerful song writing, atmospheric settings and passionate delivery.......... In working previously with such uncompromising idiosyncratic singers as Tom Waits and Marianne Faithful, Marc Ribot has already shown how open he is to just such unorthodox marriage of voice and guitar as this. Morris and Ribot recorded this music in 3 days, and selected the material by the most audacious impromptu of methods. Sarah-Jane Morris pulled an assortment of her favorite CD's from her collection then played the songs to Ribot who worked out the chords while she wrote down the lyrics. Then they went straight to first-take, no rehearsal recordings." I never heard of this singer before this album, which is produced on her own label (Fallen Angel). Check it out, I think you won't be disappointed.
