I've been playing this song all week ... I really love this recording because it has all of my favorite Joni elements ... Joni talking, Joni tuning and Joni enlightening ... talking philosophy ... she also sounds like she's smoking some good philosophy!!! :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FNX9AJaokNI Really love this song ... and it's really fun to play. Here is the link to the tab: http://jonimitchell.com/music/transcription.cfm?id=143 Take care, Sue ___________________ /___________________\ ||-------------------|| || Sue Tierney || || McNamara || || sem8@cornell.edu || ||___________________|| || O etch-a-sketch O || \___________________/ "It's all a dream she has awake." - Joni Mitchell ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 6 Jul 2011 16:54:55 -0700 From: Betsy Blue Subject: Introduction and questions Hi! I'm new here, and I can't wait to read about all the Joni knowledge you have. Yesterday I was listening to Boho Dance on my way out of the gym and when I hopped into my car, For the Roses was playing. They're twins! It totally makes sense, but I would never have put them together if they hadn't been synchronized like magic. Don Juan's Reckless Daughter and Coyote are a more obvious pair. What about The Hunter and This Flight Tonight? Is it just me, or did Joni reuse/recycle her material a lot? - -Betsy ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 6 Jul 2011 17:10:05 -0700 (PDT) From: Bob Muller Subject: Re: Introduction and questions Betsy Blue..tell me something good! Hello, welcome and thanks for the (kind of) intro. Boho Dance and FTR are similar lyrically, not sure how much musically. Both are cynical laments about the commercial side of the music biz. Hunter and TFT are VERY similar, and probably the reason that she never released it. Good thing she went with TFT, thanks to Nazareth and all the metal bands that covered the Nazareth cover assisted in making Joni a wealthy lady. And speaking of wealth, you're correct in saying that there's a wealth of Joni knowledge here, so dive right in and participate. New insights are always welcome here.

Bob- Here's more intro than you probably want: I was born in California on Joni Mitchell's 39th birthday and named after Betsy Asher. (My only sister was born on Kilauren's 27th.) Our mom had every Joni, Beatles, and U2 record. I pretty much learned how to read off LP covers before kindergarten, making for a large and awkwardly drug reference-skewed vocabulary. My first CDs were Hits and Misses, but I've been filling in all the gaps. I can't choose a favorite song or album; that would be like choosing a favorite cat. - -Betsy NP: Lucky Girl Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 6 Jul 2011 21:08:14 -0700 From: Lori Fye Subject: Re: Introduction and questions > I can't choose a favorite song or album; that would be like choosing a favorite cat. Great intro, Betsy (except for me having to do math -- kidding)! Welcome! Looking forward to some Joni exchanges. : ) Lori Santa Rosa, CA ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 6 Jul 2011 22:17:51 -0700 (PDT) From: Bob Muller Subject: Re: Introduction and questions But you HAVE to name a favorite, otherwise what will we fight about?
