I loved when she talked about the family in Michigan learning alternate tunings so they could play her songs. I'd love to see their notes from that time. I spent my holiday break tabbing some unreleased songs from those recordings. Joni's right, some of those songs are hard!!! :-) I also loved the videos of Joni painting. My favorite line: abstract expressionism invented by New York drunks! :-) Take care, Sue Tierney PS Oh yeah, for the new year I'm going through the process of changing back to my maiden name. I know a lot of you only know me as Sue Mc but change is good for the soul! :-) ___________________ /___________________\ ||-------------------|| || Sue Tierney || || sem8@cornell.edu || ||___________________|| || O etch-a-sketch O || \___________________/ "It's all a dream she has awake." - Joni Mitchell ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 4 Jan 2010 12:37:02 -0500 From: Gerald Notaro Subject: Re: New Video in Library - njc On Mon, Jan 4, 2010 at 12:05 PM, Susan E McNamara wrote: > > Take care, Sue Tierney > > PS Oh yeah, for the new year I'm going through the process of changing back > to my maiden name.

Some of you may be familiar with her songs, which blended Mexican, Klezmer and other styles and were performed in English, French and Spanish. She wasn't a prolific songwriter by any means. I understand she had only three albums since 1998, and I just learned about the third one in reading the article noted below, but she was greatly respected. As well, she was born in Big Indian, which is in the same Catskills neighbourhood as The Full Moon, where a bunch of us attended the North-East Jonifests for a few years. http://ca.news.yahoo.com/s/capress/100104/entertainment/obit_lhasa_de_sela __________________________________________________________________ Make your browsing faster, safer, and easier with the new Internet Explorer. 8.

She was only 38 years old. Breast cancer. She was a very special person, composing and singing in three languages. She touched many people through her art.
