I'd like the demos for DED and a bit more. Let's also not forget that there's a DVD to go along with it. The first thing that I thought of was oh, it's gonna be a re-hash of PWWAM but then I thought (on my wishlist) The Carnegie Hall Concert (otherwise known as the Green Dress) please let that be remastered and DVD'd up. And also the documentary that recorded the making of T'log filmed here in England. $100 US it might be but in the UK it'll certainly go for B#100-150. Which means it'll be a big no-no for me. 2009/6/27 Mark Domyancich > Also cautiously optimistic due to the multitude of previous > compilations, but having unreleased and alternate songs is going to be > a big selling point for me.

Subject: Re: New boxed set due in November *I remembered reading about Joni discussing a possible box set a number of years ago from an article I had read in a magazine. Thanks to our excellent jonimitchell.com archives, I found that article, with some noteworthy information here from CD Review Magazine, July 1991: / "Are you thinking in terms of a boxed set? Record labels are putting a lot of care into these collections. /* *That definitely makes it more attractive than the old greatest hits albums. If it's done with care and a presentation of graphics inside, it could be a beautiful package. As a matter of fact, we've already begun. The tapes from my first record have been in David Crosby's possession all these years - it's like a miracle that they didn't go up in smoke or something. And there are a lot of [unreleased] songs from back then that would be impossible for me to sing now - they're really ingenue works.* *There also are some bits of banter between Crosby and me on the first record. And there is in existence the fledgling flight of "Both Sides Now" at the Second Fret in Philadelphia. Those things are archival, and they have value if you're preparing a boxed set package. But if someone makes a collection of songs that were hits or single releases but are not the best of what I do, that's the nightmare - to miss the best performances.* */ How much work have you done on the boxed set so far? /* *We've begun the process of saving tapes. Old master tapes, like film, are deteriorating now - we've lived that long that they're beginning to go. So we're transferring over the early albums onto digital. In the process, we're looking at the raw footage, the uncut footage, and there's a lot that's salvageable there.* */ What kinds of material have you uncovered? /* *There are tracks from the Mingus album, which was cut with four of five different bands; with some of them I do better vocal performances. I wanted to come into jazz and take it somewhere. There are some tracks where I don't take it anywhere, that are just straight meat-and-potatoes jazz where I'm actually singing better than I did [on the commercially released tracks]. The album I put out is a little more out there.* *There's a lot of other stuff back there as well. For instance, the first album was a conceptual album. I had so much material that the first side is called "I Came to the City'' and the second side is called "Out of the City and Down to the Seaside." It's that same recurring theme: What are cities doing to nature? There are [unreleased] songs from that era, one of them called "Jeremy,'' which is a nice song about a kid thrown into prison for pot.* *There also are [unreleased songs with] pretty melodies and 'tunesmithy" lyrics. I've always been called a folk singer, from the time I made my first record. I've only recorded two folk songs in my whole career, but I used to sing folk songs before I began to write, and there are [tapes] of those - and that's kind of interesting. It's a piece of the evolution that's missing from [my] records." * *The complete article is available here: * *http://jonimitchell.com/library/view.cfm?id=63&from=search * *Best regards, * *Gary Z.

From the back of the box (because I couldn't synopsize it any better) Tom Dowd & The Language of Music profiles the extraordinary life an legendary work of music producer/recording engineer Tom Dowd. Historical footage, vintage photographs and interviews with a who's who list of musical giants from the worlds of jazz, soul and classic rock shine a spotlight on the brilliance of Tom Dowd, whose creative spirit and passion for innovative technology helped shape the course of modern music. Tom Dowd's credits include recording sessions with Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, Eric Clapton, Otis Redding, John Coltrane, The Allman Brothers, Tito Puente, Dizzy Gillespie, Thelonious Monk, Cream, Rod Stewart, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Booker T. & the MGs and countless other musical luminaries. The thing that caught me totally by surprise was what a brilliant scientist Tom Dowd was in his day. He worked on the Manhatten Project, though he did resign from that position eventually. He attended MIT and he had a degree in nuclear physics. Interviews with Les Paul were enlightening and the history of the development of multi-track recording fascinating. Tom Dowd was the inventor of the slide bar on the main board, replacing large, unwieldy knobs. If you haven't seen this documentary, Dave, it's so worth the time, - especially for (but not limited to) recording geeks.
