Lori, Well, I presume this was written by Suzanne Macaurele. There are times, she actually writes coherently, but it is rare. This is sheer psychosis as I have absolutely no idea why she is allowed to continue to be a member of JMDL. She contributes nothing positive and her thoughts are sick, dangerous and revolting. I find nothing amusing about it and I find it deplorable that it is allowed to continue. I am a great advocate for the mentally ill as I am bipolar myself, but this is sick shit and it doesn't do Suzanne a damn bit of good to give her this arena to write in. Everybody can get as angry as they want with me, but there is enough horror in this world without having to read this madness. I deal with it in my work, my family and my life and I personally don't want to have to deal with it on the JMDL.

And you are so correct! This version is much colder and stormier than the original. You are right about the wind from the orchestra, it is almost SPOOKY! And I can really hear the arbutus leaves being shaken about viciously. I also love the percussive tapping of nails one can hear when Joni sings "hammers and the boards and the nails." I love that line so much, reminds me again of "one false move and you're a goner." Such a sad commentary on the music biz...thinking about the Dixie Chicks and Sinead O'Connor right now. Although, the one thing I like better about the original verision is Joni's guitar work when she sings "will *glitter* for them so." The guitar fingering really sparks up an image of *glitter* that the symphony cannot do justice to. Thanks again for sharing your insights and I hope for more soon!

This one is advertised as being free of region coding. It plays fine here in the US and includes stuff left off the 60 minute version sold on VHS here twenty years ago.

After being so focused on and moved by the performance, and jumping up as almost everyone did when Helga finished to clap as loudly as possible, and to then see on your face what I felt, well, it all adds up to one of my favorite memories of the day.

This is good news! It means we can request certain segments and there's time to figure out how to record their broadcast. In addition to all of Helga's performance, I'd like to hear the Mingus Big Band from start to finish, including the stories and the bit of introduction confusion.

In marketing they call it an effort at "re-sell". If you like "A", you may also want to purchase "B". The PWWaM obviously is material that has had all of the "rights" worked out too. Ask Paz what a bitch that can be. The other performances, like the full length "Blue" maybe a "product" later and I expect the machine will hype it when the machine can generate revenue with it.

The broadcasting tower isn't far as the crow flies, but apparently there are some buildings between it and my receiver because all I hear at 90.7 FM is intense static, not even a hint of a signal. Other stations get through, but not that one. A friend of mine recently told me the signal comes through great in Queens where she lives (all those low buildings!) so I may be spending November 7 there, recording, even if it means taking my new philips recorder and hooking it up to her stereo. Wouldn't that work? I haven't used this philips much yet, but it looks like it can record directly from the receiver (or tuner, or whatever the radio in a stereo system is called). Since this year is Joni's 60th and she's one of WFUV's favorites, they may be doing other special things on her birthday in addition to rebroadcasting some of Wall to Wall. Gotta capture it all! > Yeah, having all that Mingus Big Band stuff would be righteous.
