That would be about the right time frame, David. They would have been a good fit with the 52's, as they were very beat-oriented & minimalistic. I saw them at The Pier in Raleigh, and really loved the crunchy guitars, the Gang of Four rhythms, and Vanessa's vocal, which was more like a gutteral shout. "K" was not on their debut (probably the one you have) but was on their last record, at least the last one that I'm aware of.

Neither Drake nor Lightfoot has ever recorded a Joni song and released it. I suspect that since they were Canadian contemporaries and played some live dates together, coffeehouses and et cetera, that at some point Gordon sang one of her songs, if only duetting with her on "Circle Game" or something. But in all my research I've never seen any hard evidence of it. If the writer knows of one, it's deliciously obscure, and as such is not really fairly included as part of this question.

Most amazing is that they played two Joni within a couple hours one night - the orchestral Both Sides Now and At Last. It's more airplay than she's gotten in LA in awhile.

My piano teacher and I had a big discussion on this subject one evening and she says people have individual reactions to certain musical notes and chords and everyone is a bit different in the combinations that most affect them. We may share a love for the same chord but then you and I may differ on our appreciation of others. I think I'm drawn most to the chord structures and changes in songs like "Rainy Night House", "Ludwig's Tune/JOTMAS" and the beginning of "My Old Man." BTW, the new Joe Jackson album is FULL of beautiful chords & changes, many on the minor side.

After all, if you just send a blank message, then it could be construed that it was some kind of mistake, and indeed no message is communicated at all. And you could say "Joni rules", or simply "Joni", but why not distill it down even more, down to the ONE KEY letter in Joni's name...surely you wouldn't use the "o" or the "i", and why on earth would you use the consonant in the MIDDLE of her name? No, the "J" is the perfect choice! It really says it all, and there's no way one can argue with it. J. Brilliant. Bob First I read this and thought, "What an astute observation, Bob."

I didn't get that out of Bob's post at all; I thought Bob's post was actually a brilliant observation of what might have been a clever post. But maybe I'm wrong.

My marriage wasn't wonderful at all - to be honest, the most wonderful thing about it was that it ended. I apologize for my disdainful and too-flippant remarks about the "institution" of marriage. I am truly envious of (but at the same time happy for) those who have a great and long-lasting relationship with a kindred soul. It's basically my way of hiding the hurt and I am truly sorry if my snarky remarks offended anyone. I didn't get to talk to you at Jonifest, but I could tell by just looking at you, and from your posts on the list, that you are a wonderful person and I wish you and your wife many more years of happiness together. ===== Catherine Toronto ______________________________________________________________________ Post your free ad now! http://personals.yahoo.ca ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 20 Aug 2003 23:43:25 -0400 From: JRMCo1@aol.com Subject: Re: Beat of Black Wings I've seen the interview re: Beat.

Please keep the photos and reports coming in - they are wonderful! When I got back from my trip I found a wonderful package from Marianne and Bree, all wrapped on the outside in STAS covering. Inside were my very own relics from the Fest, including a magic Joni stone retrieved from Full Moon "Constant as a Northern Star," Bree's *incredible* candies (which I am presently scarfing up) and a little pine cone. Thank you so much - it was so sweet and thoughtful of you, two! Thanks again you all for the birthday wishes, too!
