In fact not one week ago I was looking at a photo of you!! I've been going through a lot of old stuff, trying to make some space in my flat, and I came across some pics of the Joni-gathering at the Troubadour. And there we all were, and there you were too; I wondered what had happened to you, and up you pop. Sounds like you're still struggling with your illness, which I'm sorry to hear about, and send good thoughts your way. I also wondered about what Rob Jordan and Gerry McNee are up to these days.

Do you still have your web-site? There was some good stuff on that. I'm glad you are still working on turning people on to Joni, something I have pretty much given up doing lately partly because of the yawning epidemic it seems to provoke in most people I know!

There's ever a confusion with the comic Roseanne Barr. Their connection wasn't really explored: I believe Colvin and Cash's husband, John Leventhal were a romantic and musical team before Rosanne. Their songwriting collaboration continues, I think. The article pre-dates this but they shared the Grammy for "Sunny Came Home," and co-wrote most of the songs on the record, which he produced and also played on.

It's terrific. This past weekend, I went to see Michael McDonald and Joan Osborne at Wolftrap (free ticket)and Michael spoke out on the need to bring our soldiers home. It wasn't about casting blame on anyone or anything, he just wanted them to come home as soon as possible. He took a beating on his message boards the next day I am told but I applaud his bravery. He wasn't trying to put anyone down. That really inspired me to ask the question "can't it just be that simple?"

I'd love to hear the story behind it; why they decided to monkey around with that particular piece of audio. Subject: Re: Joni Remix Thanks for delurking to post that, Gerry - I had not heard it before & enjoyed Conversation with a thicker backbeat. And it reminded me of how much the guitar riff sounds like The Doobie Brothers' "Tell Me What You Want(And I'll Give You What You Need)". (I suppose I should say how much the Doobs tune sounds like Joni's since hers came first) Anyone else familiar with that song?

She is my friend and I am also friends with her 5 daughters/ / / / / Her name is Ruth Kilgras. . she had a painful life, physically and emotionally. . and now her body is freed. . She is a beautiful person. to a spiritual note: as it is OUR BODIES BELONG TO US . . . BUT THEY ARE NOT US. I wanted to share with you a few things that were mentioned at her memorial service. . her brother told this story: It is a true story There is a man named Robert. Robert's mother was dying and Robert would visit her every day . . While his mother was dying Robert's son, Robbie, had gotten menengitus (sp?). . and was in the hospital. Robbie (the son) was 18 or 19. Because Robert's mother was so close to dying, he didn't want to burden her with Robbie's sickness so he didn't tell her that he was running to the hospital see Robbie. Robbie went into a comma and died. Robert did not tell his mother that her grandson died. She was to die a week or two later. . As his mother was dying she seemed to pass on to another place. . she called out three names (for example), Josephine. . . . " There's josephine!. ., " she said (her sister) "There's Margaret!" . . "There's Nicholas. . .!" (All people in her life that had passed before her... . .) and then she said. . "THERE"S Robbie!. . .YOU DIDN'T TELL ME Robbie was here." soon after she died. I believe this ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~~ ~ ~ ~ ~~ ~ ~ Next story. . a few days before Ruth died, 1. she saw her sister Pat (who had died) standing there. . 2. she felt an arm on her shoulder when no one was there . . . and then this report: 3. She was laying in her bed and she said to her daughters, "there's MIchael Landon (sp?)." "What?" her daughter replied. . "There's Michael Landon. . he is sitting right there in a chair.." and she pointed to the corner of the room . . no one else could see him there.. Later that day the hospice worker came to the house. . and they told this story to the hospice worker, and the hospice worker said, oh, my goodness. . "Ruth is the second [dying] person today who said they saw Michael Landon." . she had never heard this before. .
