Bernie Grundman from the original analog masters. Two 45rpm disks, $60.00... So there now exist vinyl re-masters of Blue, HOSL, and LOTC. Is it a bit surprising to see this one appearing next? May have to do with obtaining rights, quality/condition of the masters, and things other than artistic considerations? I'd wait for reviews, but if it's anything like the Rhino Blue reissue it's a delicious propect.

This reminded me to check back at Amazon to see if I could find a regular old CD for less than $40.00--and there are now some available new for $7.00! So I'm firing up the debit card--gonna grab one while I can.

I will have to check out Pegi's music, she sure sounds like a fascinating person. Also, that link, in general leads to other good stories of interest to me, so - THANKS! good reading there..... :) Em - --- On Fri, 6/4/10, Patti Parlette wrote: From: Patti Parlette Subject: Pegi Young's high regard for Joni To: joni@smoe.org Date: Friday, June 4, 2010, 9:35 PM Dear Joniamigos: I was reading an interview with Pegi Young, and then along comes Joni! "Theres this really cool stated vulnerability in a song like Fake that Ive never really heard on male songwriters records. You can hear it on a lot of Joni Mitchells records. Its just a very cool or rough-edged or experienced kind of vulnerability. Is this something that youre conscious of? Are you consciously trying to portray particular characters or situations? Or are you just writing what comes out naturally? Oh, I am so flattered beyond belief to be even thought of in the same world as Joni Mitchell. I dont think about trying to come out with a certain vulnerability or anything else. That song Fake was one when we were just flying somewhere and it just came through. You know its got something that sparks it, but then what I strive for is, the best songs have that universal quality, so people can take them into their own lives and interpret them for themselves, whatever their experience is. Its a big, grand wish to be able to do that." http://www.americansongwriter.com/2010/05/drinks-with-pegi-young/ Oh, for (laughing and) crying out loud, Muller. Nobody's harder on me than you.

Etta James doing "Amelia." Where does this come from? Is it one of her albums, or is part of that elusive tribute that had Janet Jackson doing "Black Crow"? ________________________________ From: Bob Muller To: JMDL Cc: Monicard Sent: Sat, June 5, 2010 6:09:00 PM Subject: Some Joni Covers Links Just stumbled upon these folks from Rome, Italy - a Joni tribute band that calls themselves "Black Crow".

I wonder how it would compare with these vinyl releases? I also have DCC 24k gold plated cds of Blue and Court and Spark. Any opinions about how these might compare to these vinyl remasters? I didn't pay a fortune for any of these but they were more than a regular cd costs. In fact, I think I won the Blue cd in a contest that Wally Breese ran may years ago when he still had JoniMitchell.com. I've always wondered if the other 2 were worth the price, sound-wise. I don't think they are available anymore and are rarities. But is the sound quality really superior to say the HDCD releases or a mint condition well mastered vinyl record? To me, the Court and Spark DCC sounds superior to any other cd version and I have 3 - the first cd pressing (really inferior sound but I was determined that it would be the first cd I owned), the HDCD and the DCC gold. What can I say? Maybe I'm a sucker for new recording technology but this may be my favorite record of all time I know there is somewhat of a trend back toward vinyl these days. I have a friend who insists the sound is 'warmer' and superior to most cds. I haven't played a vinyl record in years and I don't know if my turntable even works anymore. I always liked the durability and ease of use of cds too much to go back to vinyl. I was never fanatical about how I took care of my records so I doubt any of them are in exactly pristine condition. You don't have to be too careful with a cd to keep the sound of it intact. No scratches or crackles. I still have my vinyl records, though. And I don't plan on parting with them anytime soon if only because of the album covers which you just can't duplicate on a little cd booklet.

Are there any listers familiar with the area who can give any advice of places to go and see and do? Thus far, I've got some time in Newport booked, and in Port Orford, but I'd love to know what is really worth seeing along the coast, and where are some cool towns to stay in. We also plan on spending a few days in Northern California if time allows to see the Redwoods, are are thinking of staying in Eureka. Any advice for that area as well? Also, if we did something really crazy and took off south to Monterey or Santa Cruz for a few days, how hideously pricey would it be for accomodations? Remember, I'm travelling with 4 kids aged 9 to 2 years, and so I this ain't a romantic type of trip. And, remember, I'm travelling on a budget. Anyway, if anyone has any advice, I'd love to hear it.
