Just noticed this book:

I'd be surprised if it DIDN'T have some JC, especially given the 
description:

Product Description
"She had a voice like an angel, smooth and complex as a twenty-year-old 
single malt, rich as thick cream. Everyone who heard Olivia sing felt as 
if she could see right into their souls, that her songs were meant for 
them alone... In earlier times, she would have been put to death as a 
witch." Andy Curran is a drummer in a struggling jazz trio. When a 
distinctly odd street person sings at an open mic night at the club where 
they work, it's clear they've found their salvation: a vocalist of 
incredible talent. When she departs as abruptly as she'd arrived, Andy 
sets out to discover where Olivia Saint has gone and who she really is. 
That knowledge soon proves to be deadly indeed. In A Case of You, a crime 
novel that sweeps from the jazz clubs of Toronto, to New York City and 
Northern California, Rick Blechta has created a compelling story, rich in 
detail and compassion, and populated with characters not easily forgotten.

In reply to Matt:
by a very rare coincidence, I think I was just looking at
the photo you mentioned.
You can see it here if you scroll down a bit (4th
picture, if that's the one you mean):
http://www.croz.fm/files/category-joni-mitchell.php

I hope this reply does
not come too late, Matt!

I also want to mention this site to others because
it contains various downloadable concerts by Joni.  Was this already generally
known by most JMDLers?
A friend who knows I like Joni's music, just sent the
link to me, but I can't download any of it.  Anybody knows what the likely
problem would be?  Is it because I need a program to unzip the stuff?

Hi All,
I am in the midst
of a project on Joni for one of my grad seminars here at UVA, and I am trying
in vain to find a specific picture of Joni. I am nearly certain I recall
having seen a picture of her in the studio during the Mingus sessions. It's
B&W, and she's standing behind the mic, singing, arms slightly outstretched,
and wearing a blouse (or dress?) reminiscent of something Billie Holiday or
another 40s/50s jazz singer might have worn. I've done a google search for
Joni images and didn't see (or else just overlooked) the picture. I am in the
library at the moment, and don't have access to my books, etc at home, and it
may be in one of the biographies??? However, if anyone knows offhand a quick
link to this image, I'd appreciate it.
