The thing is, now, when you find a source of digital stations, like that which I get from, say, my cable TV digital music channels, or the collection of stations I get with iTunes, you ARE offered alternatives! They GIVE you a Celtic station, they give you an Americana station, they give you a Reggae station. Whats up with "radio" that it can (with very few exceptions) only muster the lowest common denominator stuff? The "American Idol" quasi-gospel-sing-every-note-but-THE-note kind of crappola. Or the super-formulaic country stuff. Safe and boring. I mean I would love to listen to country. But the stations and the artists ('cept for the indies) are so under the formula "thumb" of Nashville. Its like John said: "got to be good looking cuz you're so hard to see". Its like chrome plating a turd. sheesh.

Scott wrote: "The saddest thing is that Joni is still "on hiatus from songwriting and recording." She is quoted in the liner notes as saying, "I started writing when I lost my daughter, and I stopped whne she came back." Let's hope that the muse comes back, and Joni begins writing and recording again." Scott, I've got to say: what Joni said works for me. And it makes perfect sense. Just "guesses at most," but I think that few of us can begin to understand just how traumatic the relinquishment of Kilauren was for Joni. It rocked her world, and not in a good sense; she wrote and sang, I'm convinced, in order to survive, deal with the pain, and interpret the world so that *something* made sense. Now, thank heavens, she no longer feels compelled to cope with her life in that way. She didn't stop recording before giving us one of the most memorable catalogues compiled by any popular musical artist in the the past 50 years, and I thank her for that. So, if you're "retired," Joni--enjoy the ride. And paint up a storm!!

Funny how she called me to tell me that there was a typo in the book ... after all her Aunt Mona had not been playing and singing it THAT way to her all her childhood. I told her that I had no doubt that Joni liked ["reeling up" like Christmas bells] better than "ringing up" like Christmas bells at the time of printing. That Joni always has been and always will be a work in progress. Funny day, interesting how all that gentle and good spirited indoctrination over the years has came to the fore today on a technicality. She says she wants to learn to play guitar. Humm! What should I teacher her? Cheers, Mona.

I'm not sure, but I think, well I *fear* that many people think the stuff on American Idol is GOOD. What kind of music is it, even??? Its just like generic SMARM, right? Its like instead of peanut butter for your sandwich, you were asked to smear the residue from restaurant grease traps on your bread. Also re: the "Jaco" article..that was wayyyyyy interesting.

I doubt that Joni read the book and I haven't seen her comment on it. That said, Ms. O'Brien's did a fine job of cobbling together many interviews into a book form. Simon & I sent some recordings to her for inspiration along the way. Unless and until Joni writes her masterpiece, this might be the most thorough treatment. There are dozens of books about Bob Dylan so I think it's kinda good to support Karen's book. Last I checked, it was in the 2nd printing which is a nice sign that the book buying public "gets it". If you've read everything you could lay your hands on over the years, there's nothing "new". I enjoyed reading her managers' recollections on the early years though.

I have just got back from seeing Natasha Lea Jones, formerly of Pooka. Some of you will know of them, partly through my relentless plugging of their quite miraculous second album, Spinning, to the jonilist (and indeed anyone else within earshot!). She was on her own tonight, and delivered a set as idiosyncratic and varied as that divine duo. From a quiet opener in an odd time signature, to melt-in-the-mouth new songs like Hidden Treasures and Naked Flame, to ferocious fare like Mean Girl, which sounded as spiky with one voice and an acoustic guitar as it did in the full-band-and-harmonies version that opened Spinning. She played songs like Graham Robert Wood, from Pookas first album, which sounded as delightful and homespun as ever. Natashas singing was terrific tonight, and again she showed enormous versatility in timbre and intensity. Her guitar playing was superb too. I dont know when shell be playing again, although its more likely to be in Manchester than London. If anyone has a chance to go and see her, please do! Im listening to her debut solo album, The Morning After, which Ive just bought, and its beautiful stuff. The venue was a small one, Upstairs at the Garage, not many people, but those that were there were rapt in attention. The most poignant part was that Sharon Lewis, the other half of Pooka, was in the audience; I dont know anything about why they split as a duo (although it was clear that theyre still on good terms), but I cant help thinking that perhaps if theyd had the success they so richly deserved, theyd still be performing together and creating their unique magic. Another tale of rich talent and originality foundering on the rocks of the cut-throat Business. So, there it is!

But whats odd to me, is that even through the 80's (if you had no access to community radio) you could *maybe* find some classic rock or oldies programming that was not completly predictable - where it was at least possible some DJ could delight you with a whimsical choice, or an interesting segueway. But now!!!! LOL, the classic rock stations just try to see who is toughest and least sensitive. Our (Tampa Bay area) classic rock stations are named "Thunder"...(well ok, what the heck)... "the Eagle" but what they should call it is "The Hawk" cuz they are so pro-war pro-Bush, and then, my favorite, and I kid you not, "The BONE"....lmao!!!!!! THE BONE, for chrissakes!!!!!! They actually named a station after what their listenership wants most! An erect penis. They should call it " The Boner" not just the Bone. Cuz this is the station that will play, for example, a snippet of a quiet flite-intensive part of a Tull tune, and then come on and say "you won't find this pansy-ass stuff here. Noooooo, we play only "hard", real-deal rock and roll." and then go into some thrash-chord mid 80's faceless hair-band crappola. (as if that even WERE rock and roll) So you see, they are tying in the notion of "hardness" with a. the music they play, b. the target audience's wishes for their own dick and c. their station name! So the target audience guy thinks, hey I'm in the right place..hard hard hard.... OK I did it again....more rant. Sorry, but, 'the Bone"? lol!!!!!!!!!

It's a double-header with an American artiste called Rose Polenzani (anyone there heard of her?). Check out the dates at www.sharonlewis.net - you can also hear a couple of songs there and see two Pooka videos; and you can buy their last two albums, Fools Give Birth To Angels and Shift. Of those I'd go for the former, which is very beautiful and organic sounding. Shift is more of an electronic album and took me a LOT of listens to get into it, but I did eventually.
