"i'm up all night in the studio (...) and i'll just be getting home with my reel-to-reel." but then, the lyrics may be just that. wally ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 23 Sep 2003 02:23:03 -0300 From: "Wally Kairuz" Subject: is sam shepard coyote? i have the slightest feeling of deja vu right now because maybe we have already discussed this. anyway, you must have noticed how DJRD (the song) sounds like "coyote, the sequel" in terms of tuning and at least one very important chord change: the opening chords in coyote and the closing chords in DJRD are the same. all right, i've always felt that DJRD (the album) had some references to a relationship between two scorpios ("it's been stinger to stinger, darling", "the eagle and the serpent" and one or two more that i can't remember right now). and then there's "i'm DJRD, i came out two days on your tail..." and i thought, is she talking about someone who was born on november 5, 1943? well, sam shepard was. and wouldn't he be an ideal candidate for the coyote character? and given the similarities between coyote and DJRD (the song) wouldn't a mind like mine come to the conclusion that SS is coyote? wally, very national-enquirish tonight ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 23 Sep 2003 01:55:01 EDT From: MINGSDANCE@aol.com Subject: Bob Muller II certainly Think Joni Planned this release date for your Birthday Bob:~) I hope you have a Great Day! It's her way of saying" thank you" for all of your spectacular "Covers" work. Peace Mingus ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 23 Sep 2003 03:01:46 -0300 From: "Wally Kairuz" Subject: September 23!!! njc the JMDL BF is in a suspicious mood tonight. its kitchen cabinets are full of it. its refrigerator can't take any more of it. its BATHTUB is overflowing with it. snake oil. snake oil here, snake oil there, snake oil everywhere. the BF KNOWS someone IS trying to win its favors. the BF knows better but the BF is weak. the BF's appetite for snake oil salad dressing is too strong for its ethereal will power. its wings aflutter, the BF denies, sublimates, projects, transfers and rationalizes, all freudian defense mechanisms whirring at once like so many cogs geared to a massive bout of self-indulgence. the BF says: "NO!", the BF says: "YES!" the BF's head says: "FORGET IT!", but the BF'S heart's still smokin'. the BF succumbs, yields, knuckles under, COLLAPSES in frenetic spasms of snake-oil madness! the BF wraps itself in greens and dons mini-bruschetti in lieu of its usual splendid jewelry and... dives into the alabaster bathtub, thus becoming a living salad with built-in croutons! a nasty and totally hysterical self-cannibalizing process begins -- a sight too awesome (as in awe-inspiring), too complex, too bizarre to describe and to WITNESS. having accomplished my mission -- that of diverting the BF's attention from a birthday greeting ever so carelessly spoken too soon (let's forgive, let's forget...) -- i leave the BF as it splashes and splatters and tosses itself to season itself evenly, and come forth to exclaim: H A P P Y B I R T H D A Y BOB MULLER!!! we talk about your covers, baby, but we really want your BODY! ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 23 Sep 2003 02:06:01 -0400 From: ljirvin@jmdl.com Subject: Today in History: September 23 1968: Joni recorded for John Peel's Radio 1 program 'TOP GEAR.' The program was broadcast six days later. Joni sang Chelsea Morning, The Gallery, Night in the City, and Cactus Tree. Joni was booked for several other Radio 1 sessions during tours in 1968 and 1969, but all were cancelled for various reasons. 1985: The Alberta Reporter ran an editorial cartoon with a likeness of Joni. Wally described the situation: "On what is called The Sunshine Coast near Vancouver, where Joni has had a house and property since the early 70's, a salmon fishing company had begun to build a huge $2 million plant. The other property owners, Joni's neighbors, asked her to join a protest against this enterprise that they believed could destroy the natural state of affairs in the area. Joni spoke to the press from her home in L.A. and said: "I thought I'd purchased a piece of wilderness, but it's being corrupted by industry." The Alberta Report newspaper took the side of the hatchery reporting that it would bring hundreds of jobs to the population who was heavily unemployed, and they claimed that Joni was not really a current resident and was rarely even in B.C. The salmon company complained that this was a case of a Hollywood celebrity trying to smear an honest fish business."
