Description: (And don't miss the last sentence...) This is a very rare hand written book with poems, drawings and watercolors that Joni Mitchell made for only her friends and loves in 1970. The title of the book is "Morning Glory on the Vine". The book is 9 X 11 1/2 and has 58 pages with over thirty illustrations and watercolors. It is numbered 12 out of 100 and signed underneath by Joni. There is a handwritten note to David [Cohen] Blue who was a musician and songwriter that died in 1982. The note says "For David who loved me like a brother when no one could love me as anything but a poet or an illusion-love struggles back-a thin leaf promising a flower /71". An amazing book! There are a few pages that have come loose from the binding and it is lightly soiled on the outside only. It does smell like cigarettes when you open it.

That version caught me totally by surprise and I absolutely loved it. Aside from that cut, the rest of the show was pretty much a let down compared to the brilliance of the S&L tour. It didn't help that I've always been a major fan of Jaco's, and never really took to Kline's style of play. That said, I saw her 3 times on the 83 tour, and was very happy I did.

I was assuming (silly me) that the reviewer knew the difference between those 2 songs, but she did do "Get Together" in her sets of that time.

Greetings, friends and neighbors and fellow Joni fans around the world, and welcome to a new month and another collection of Joni covers, also from around the world. This month's menagerie comes mostly from the web, recordings from artists that never made it to the stores or even I-tunes but still sound great and deserve to be heard. So don't rush out to your local indie record store to get these because you won't find them. I have indicated after the artists' name where they are from. Thanks to Monica for pointing the way every so often. It's just amazing how much undiscovered greatness is out there and I'm always happy to don my pith helmet and hunt the big (and little) game for you. So let's get right to the countdown - here's a link that'll give it to ya: http://tinyurl.com/269dta7 And here's what awaits: 1.Robert Jones (United Kingdom) - Hejira: This is one that I shared a while back, and I think it's a real dynamo. Robert adds lots of additional musical colors and he's got a great blue-eyed soul voice. The production takes the flow of the track up and down and does a great job of building musical momentum. 2. Mandrup & Darling (Denmark) - Both Sides Now: 3. Mandrup & Darling - A Case Of You: 4. Mandrup & Darling - You Turn Me On, I'm A Radio: 5. Mandrup & Darling - People's Parties: A nice mini-concert from Mandrup & Darling, even if she starts with "Bows and Flows" as in "the cast took their BOWS while the audience thre FLOWers", I can always forgive some minor pronunciation issues when someone is singing out of their mother tongue, it certainly doesn't hurt that the vocals are good and so is the accompaniment, whether it's on piano or guitar. Mandrup & Darling is Anna Kargaard Scharling on voice and guitar, Andreas Riis Mandrup on guitar and piano. They identify themselves as a Joni Mitchell cover band; look out Henning, you have competition. 6. Under The Sky - I Had A King: Very true to Joni's own, which after all is a compliment in itself. 7. Anna Corcoran (Liverpool, NW United Kingdom) - Both Sides Now: Anna's voice is very relaxed and confident, and the piano arrangement has flashes of originality. A solid take on the franchise. 8. Jean-Francois Nadeau (Montreal, QE Canada) - The Dry Cleaner From Des Moines: One of the few Joni covers that typically calls for TWO comparison's....Joni's vocal and Jaco's bass, which is the stuff on legend on this track, especially the S&L version. Anyway, this is a really really solid version, and both vocal and bass hold up pretty well to the original. Some fine drumming and horn work rounds out a solid track. 9. Howard & The Urban Foxes (London, England) - All I Want: It's easy to instantly reject something that sounds sooo distant from Joni's original and decry it as being awful, but I find this techno-ballad to be affecting in a way, with lots of interesting sounds tucked in there. Give it a couple listens and tell me what you think. 10. The Young Brothers - Woodstock (Nashville, TN USA): Here's a GREAT cover, a country band puts a very outlaw country spin on the hippie anthem in their style with some original harmonies and guitar work. Really great stuff. 11. Laura Beams - Both Sides Now (New South Wales, Australia): Laura's take on the franchise combines a little of Joni's MOA version with some individual flourishes of her own, including a nice flute in the background 12. Northern Dream - A Case Of You (Middlesbrough, NE UK): Nice basic guitar and vocals, given that this wasn't touched up and sanitized, I think they do a great job. 13. Arthur Toran - Urge For Going (Holland - Dutch language): Arthur's voice isn't the best, and the guitar is minimally adequate, but I just love to hear Joni's songs done in a Non-English setting, it always the world seem like a smaller place to me. BSN gets done in lots of languages, but off the top of my head I can't think of another UFG cover that isn't English. 14. Arthur Toran - Woodstock (Dutch): 15. McCall Erickson (Ogden, UT USA) - Both Sides Now: She's a little raw-sounding and (as Randy Jackson would say) pitchy at times but I find this live performance very heartfelt and some nice guitar work to boot. Plus, you can tell from her intro that she's a real fan. 16. Threefold - Edith And The Kingpin (Sydney, Australia): I would guess that EATK makes most of our top ten Joni songs list, and indeed it is becoming a fairly popular cover, probably in small part to the great Herbie Hancock/Tina Turner recording. The vocal here has much more of a pop affectation with some hints of soul, she takes the opportunity to have some fun with it vocally and the sparse electric piano/bass backup is musically very effective. 17. Cactus Acoustic Duo - Carey: 18. Cactus Acoustic Duo - Cactus Tree (Teramo, Italy): Another mini-mini concert, and with a Cactus-sized moniker, you kind of think they would include their namesake song. Pretty guitars and vocals on these. 19. Maartje Houtzager - Both Sides Now (Holland): No pitchiness here; Maartje has a beautiful voice as she navigates the Dianne Reeves arrangement and sounds wonderful doing it, kicking it into a nice mid-tempo after the first verse/chorus combo. A nice jazz trio supports her nicely as well as she stretches the franchise to almost 6 minutes, savoring every note. And that concludes our monthly trip around the world of Joni covers - thanks to those who read this far and checked out the tunes, thanks to the artists who recorded them, and most of all thanks to SIQUOMB who put them out there in the first place! Bob NP: Billy Bragg, "Body Of Water" ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 2 Jul 2010 00:01:05 +0000 From: Michael O Subject: NJC Funding for the website (JoniMitchell.com receives no financial support from Joni, her management, or her record company. It is fully funded by Les Irvin and the community of fans across the globe, just like you.( Personally, I am more than happy to make a modest contribution to this website, which has to be (by far) the most complete compendium of a musical artist's career, anywhere on the web. Plus, there are some truly lovely, brilliant, generous people associated with this List, across the globe. This said, I find it disturbing that the multi-millionaires in the biz gathered around Joni, such as Nonsuch Records, Rhino Records, Starbucks, Feldman, etc. couldn't fork out a few bucks from time to time to keep this thing afloat. Furthermore, I feel that Joni herself owes a considerable debt to the website, in that it is a fabulous archive of (and tribute to) her work, all maintained by her fans, if I'm not mistaken. The website keeps her name and her work alive on the web, almost singlehandedly, which is no small contribution to ensuring the visibility of her oeuvre and legacy. It's not as if the fans are the only beneficiaries of the website. Surely Joni & Co. could support it somehow. I mean, really.... You would think they might be a wee bit grateful ? My 2 cents.
