Thanks muchly for posting those videos! It may well have been the 
wobbly quality of the audio, but am I alone in imagining that the 
version of Fiction sounded bouncier and altogether more interesting 
than the one that wound up on Dog Eat Dog?

Happy New Decade to one and all

I so enjoyed listening to this interview. Wow, the years roll away. Does
anyone know what happened to the 'Sipping Lizard'?

Hi Walt - Joni was diagnosed with Morgellon's Disease, might be misspelling that, at some point last year. It was a discussion topic for awhile but I haven't heard anything else about it.

The box set is going to happen, was supposed to be November last year but has been pushed out to <we don't know>. Information has been hard to come by though we do have a mole who is getting the news as it comes out. All that we know about for sure is the inclusion of "Jeremy" which was recorded for STAS plus some 1964 live folk performances, likely her appearances at the Half Beat. Also included will be some of the alternate recordings from the Mingus sessions. If it does come out, it will be one of the highlights of the year.

As for new studio stuff, she was originally contracted for another album on the Starbucks Hear Music but they sorta shut it down last year so I don't know if that contract is legit still or not. Then again, the true determination point will be if Joni's muse moves her, and that's a good thing. 

And I'll add that it's very nice to have you back my friend - you have been missed.

The signature is the giveaway, very crooked as opposed to Joni's more fluid lines ("sticking to some straighter line").

Well, it does say "Mitchell '68", so it's possible that her signature style has changed.

Interestingly, the seller admits that he can't prove this is real, and offers a full refund if you can show that it's a fake.

I can't imagine anyone bidding 3,500 unless Joni herself says that it's real.

Even if it is real, a 2 1/2 by 3 1/2 inch watercolor card would never be
worth $3500, in my opinion.

Mine either, but if it is real, knowing how inflated celebrity art (be the person best known as an artist or not) is, no price would really surprise me.

Subject: Music to work by, njc

 I like to have music playing while I work.  In fact, I crave music when
I work.  Ideally, it will be peppy enough to keep me on track but not so
jumpy that I get aggressive.

THOSL works; LOTC doesn't.  Anything by The Allman Brothers Band is
perfect; AC/DC is too fast.

Here's wishing everyone a safe and fun new year's eve,
Jim

Synchronicity, Jim...I've been on an assignment in Atlanta (wrapping it up tonight) and haven't had my external hard drive with me that has all my tunes on it, so I've been running Pandora and LaLa for music. Yesterday I streamed the Allmans, which led me to the Duane Allman Anthology, which led me to Sea Level, and so on.

I can work to AC/DC no problem.

if it were really painted by Joni and if I had lots of extra of $$ I would have no prob paying that, tiny or not. It would be like a little jewel.

I play the classical music programs on Georgia Public Radio when I work,
because I can't have music with lyrics when I write.  But I love music when
I write.

     Hummm... I couldn't access any of those videos through those links...
got a message saying there was a problem with the server.
     Oh, and belated condolances to David Lamm over your loss (just
catching up on posts).
     Otherwise, best wishes to all for a healthy & happy new year.
