The program, which Joni Mitchell participates in, is the first full-scale film exploring her life and work. This poignant documentary features rare 60s and 70s performance footage, historic audio recordings of never-released songs, home movies, and a comprehensive photo archive. Interviews with musicians: David Crosby; Graham Nash; James Taylor; Wayne Shorter; Herbie Hancock; Former Agent, David Geffen; The New York Times Music Critic, Stephen Holden, and Mitchells Daughter, reveal an intimate portrait of a artistic legend. The DVD will include the 90-minute documentary, which is being broadcast on PBS , along with bonus interview material, a gallery walk with Joni looking into and discussing her paintings, as well as a limited selection of full song performances from the 1997 Eagle Vision release of Joni's concert "Painting With Words and Pictures." Witty, wry and insightful, Mitchell candidly discusses her rise to stardom, the creative process, her paintings, her romances, her reunion with the daughter she gave up for adoption and, of course, her music. Woman of Heart and Mind interweaves some 35 Joni Mitchell songs  including Both Sides Now, Chelsea Morning, Same Situation, California, Blue, Circle Game, and Hejira  with a forthright portrait of her life, a life that is finely etched upon all 23 of her albums. The film required exhaustive research through decades-old archives and personal collections, including home movies shot by Graham Nash -- film Nash himself hadnt seen in 30 years, of Laurel Canyon in the late 1960s, of Nash, David Crosby, Stephen Stills, Neil Young, and Mitchell hanging out at home. Friend Michael Vosses home movies from the 1968 Big Sur Folk Festival show Mitchell with Judy Collins and Mama Cass. Woman of Heart and Mind also includes several unreleased tunes, such as the 1967 Just Like Me, and several rare filmed performances never broadcast in the U.S.  Mitchell singing For Free on the Isle of Wight and Blue during a 1974 concert at the New Victoria Theatre in London. For the first full-scale film about her life and work, Mitchell participated in numerous hours-long interviews at her home in Bel Air, Calif. She also opened up about her famous 1997 reunion with her daughter, Kilauren, given up for adoption shortly after her birth in 1965. In the film, both mother and daughter discuss their first meeting in 32 years. Throughout the film, musicians and long-time friends open up about the famously reclusive Mitchell, whose love affair and subsequent break-up with Graham Nash spilled into 1971s Blue. In the film, Nash recalls falling in love with Mitchell. Throughout her musical career, Joni Mitchell evolved from confessional poet to rock and roll mama to jazz singer to musician of the world stage, collecting top honors along the way  including six Grammys between 1969 and 2000, induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1997 and the Billboard Century Award in 1995. Susan Lacy is creator and executive producer of AMERICAN MASTERS. Jac Venza is director of Cultural and Arts Programs at Thirteen.

Additional interviews were also conducted by Ms. Bennett. AMERICAN MASTERS has become a cultural legacy in its own right, producing an exceptional film library that illustrates the creative journeys of our most enduring writers, musicians, visual and performing artists. Now in its 17th season, the series set the standard for documentary film profiles and has received widespread critical acclaim, winning 11 Emmys, six Peabodys, an Oscar, a Grammy, and 27 Cine Golden Eagles.

Anyone any ideas/experiences to share? Thanks, O< like chris said, the only way to improve your public performance is to perform in public as often as possible...keep going to open mics...doing it at home & doing it in public is a completely different game...open mic is where you get to practice in public but be sure you are well rehearsed before hand which will help with the nerves a bit...singing with a mic takes getting used to as is playing an insrument mic'd as opposed to no electronics...also you need to make sure you can hear yourself balanced in the monitor which will help a lot... www.katebennett.com "Lyrically, it's a work of art overall.

Did they just SEND it to you as a birthday gift? If so, that's a little scary. I was looking at their website (www.aarp.org) ... about 5 years ago they offered a "lifetime" membership plan for, I think, $200. I know this because my former boss, Carl the orchard man (may he rest in peace), bought such a membership about one minute after he turned 50. However, it looks to me like AARP doesn't offer that option anymore. I guess they got savvy to the notion that most folks (excepting Carl) live a long time now. Hmph.

It's pronounced "Nawlenz". No one from here says "New Orleens" unless they are writing a song or they want their ass kicked. It's hot. It's humid. It rains. Those are the only 3 weather patterns we have here. No one eats healthy. Fried Batter is actually a menu item in some restaurants. Giving directions to a non-local in New Orleans is a waste of time. Every street intersects with each other. No two streets run parallel to each other. The West Bank is actually East of the city. It would take too long to explain. 1 out of 3 street names are impossible to pronounce unless you were born in New Orleans, or you are a cajun. If the levee breaks, everyone here will die. No one seems worried about this problem either. There are 365 days in the year. There are 414 parties/festivals in New Orleans. (That's just on a slow month). Then how come no one ever leaves? - ----------READ ON---------- Louisiana Driving Rules: 1. A right lane construction closure is just a game to see how many people can cut in line by passing you on the right as you sit in the left lane waiting for the same drivers to squeeze their way back in before hitting the orange construction barrels. 2. Turn signals will give away your next move. A real Louisiana driver never uses them. Use of them in New Orleans may be illegal. 3. Crossing two or more lanes in a single lane-change is considered "going with the flow". 4. Never get in the way of an older car that needs extensive bodywork. (Reason: no insurance) - ----------READ ON---------- SOUTHERN ADVICE If you are from the northern states and planning on visiting or moving to the South, there are a few things you should know that will help you adapt to the difference in lifestyles: If you run your car into a ditch, don't panic. Four men in a four-wheel drive pickup truck with a tow chain will be along shortly. Don't try to help them; just stay out of their way. This is what they live for. Don't be surprised to find movie rentals and bait in the same store. Don't buy food at this store. Remember, "y'all" is singular, "all y'all" is plural, and "all y'all's" is plural possessive. The first Southern statement to creep into a transplanted Northerner's vocabulary is the adjective 'big ol' truck or 'big ol' boy. Most Northerners begin their Southern-influenced dialect this way. All of them are in denial about it. Be advised that 'He needed killin' is a valid defense here. If you hear a Southerner exclaim, "Hey, y'all, watch this," you should stay out of the way. These are likely to be the last words he'll ever say. If there is the prediction of the slightest chance of even the smallest accumulation of snow, your presence is required at the local grocery store. It doesn't matter whether you need anything or not. You just have to go there. Do not be surprised to find that 10-year-olds own their own shotguns, they are proficient marksmen, and their Mammas taught them how to aim. The North has sun-dried toe-mah-toes .. The South has 'mater samiches. The North has coffee houses .. The South has Waffle Houses. The North has dating services .. The South has family reunions. The North has switchblade knives .. The South has Lee Press-on Nails. The North has double last names .. The South has double first names. The North has Ted Kennedy .. The South has Edwin Edwards. The North has an ambulance .. The South has an am-a-lance. The North has Cream of Wheat .. The South has grits. The North has green salads .. The South has collard greens. The North has lobsters .. The South has crawfish. AND REMEMBER: If you do settle in the South and bear children, don't think we will accept them as Southerners. After all, if the cat had kittens in the oven, we wouldn't call them biscuits. HAVE A GOOD DAY! Send this to four people that ain't related to ya, and I reckon your life will turn into a country music song 'fore you know it! ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 22 May 2003 16:22:42 +0100 From: colin Subject: Re: Wall to Wall Joni Mitchell recordings SCJoniGuy@aol.com wrote: >In a message dated 5/22/2003 8:57:37 AM Eastern Standard Time, colin@tantra-apso.com writes: > > > >>Thank you Bob.

Get yourself up to Mac OS X and it works like a charm. If you're behind firewalls then it gets more complex, but can still be made to work depending on what level of control you have over security policy. Shout if you need help with that.

Stryngs (that's myself and Martin Giles from this esteemed list, and Strings - a Joni fan not on the list) are listed on a number of Internet music websites. A number of these have top 10 (or more) charts on them. I'd like to see if we can propel ourselves to the top of one or two of them :) If you've heard our stuff and liked it, or even if you haven't and fancy mangling meaningless statistics in our favour, we'd be really greatful if you could saunter over to our site (www.stryngs.com), go to the album page, and click on the dirty great vote button for us. If you're really keen, going to www.sanesociety.org, searching for "Stryngs" and giving us a vote there wouldn't go amiss either, although that's probably beyond the call of duty. (Hell, you're under no obligation to do anything beyond hitting delete on this message, but that's another thing entirely...) Lastly: if you haven't heard our material yet, please go and have a listen if your internet connection's up to it. My web server could do with some exercise, and it'll test out the new download counter I just wrote and nailed up on there :) Failing listening on the website, COME TO JONIFEST, and we'll personally play songs for you :-) Cheers, - --Chris (in insomniac mode) chris_AT_stryngs.com Song samples and CD information at www.stryngs.com Subliminal message below:- Keep going...

I cannot marvel about this since i have failed to see anyone getting on the case of all those imaginary guitarists who swoon at the mention of Bruce Springstein... has anyone ever pondered that the naturally sweet nature of women makes imitation of men indeed a rather unnecessary self characterization to justify and insist upon one's clitoral sensitivity be respected and correctly and sensuously stroked I might add or to hell with your pretension about what i am without your magic wand that has been all the rage since the days Moses stood before Pharaoh! What brought this all on at this moment? Why in all honesty my au natural is always on my mind and I would dare say yours and well I get a sight bit unruly and ready to declare war when i get even the slightest wind of the beast of sickness about others most personal that is one's only true possession of oneself as something any group has any right to at all much less be as boring as the beliefs our parents held which was just another group of people in love with rumors - so pardon me if I fan the flames - rumors being the deciding factor on me canning the idea of spending time with most folks - but dont forget one can only be homophobic about men.... women remain fair game because some black madonnas pretending to be some sort of prophetesses from some deep dark cave of God, or so they claim, think lesbians are dangerous to a nonexistent peace movement... but of ocurse as long as you get your peice dont fuck with my peace because this tirade might lead one to believe that I am alas without someone to be suckered into the prison grasp of my own self affection which can it be true is it really love?????????????????????????????? So anytime you are thinking you are losing it just know the world is now filled with psychotic defenses not necessarily capable of uniting with others since some people and at last count the majority still believe they are sane simply because so many others have some vague thread of relatedness to them!!!!???? Yes yes you in the last row we do indeed decide to join with others so as to get our needs supplied - the old no man is an island - well grasp this spin: If the United States continues to import its food and the rest of the world is ungrateful for the work - what kind of world would it be if they all decided to boycott and refuse shipment? Could this be the meaning behind the threats to our livestock and oh other stuff one can recall if one wants to from the not so distant past? Make our own production unproductive send it overseas - oh my God are we sane???? Lets see if I can take a thread and make that thread reach a conclusion hey so can my enemies - and seeing as they claim no decadence because they spend their time in poverty - there centuries old contribution - anyway, no man is an island - how will we shift gears, or should I say, if we keep on making pacifists and retrenchinists of our selves and our children = what will they do when the shipments of food dont come? Are we reversing backward to some state of feeble in some idiot's warped version of payback for what? Just what is the crime? I'm deaf, speak up, have you no mic - well hey neither do I but then that is why I rarely do these verbal jaunts if anyone read this far I will be amazed. s. so is it a mock or truly an admiration? ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 22 May 2003 23:06:39 -0700 From: Michael Paz Subject: Re: To be sung to the tune of "I'm So Pretty" NJC (except in the remotest of related strings or themes or tangents, yes tangents, then yes?)
