Danny Korchmar "Kootch" was a childhood friend of James Taylor. Also, they are all prominently discussed in the book Girls Like Us, a biography of Carole King, Joni Mitchell, and Carly Simon. They are stellar musicians who also played on JT and Carole's Troubadour CD and reunion tour.

Perhaps there is still time to arrange it (rubbing hands briskly ;-) Any of them would be something else! Here's an interview with Steve "Larry" Carlton that just came out yesterday. http://www.examiner.com/music-industry-in-nashville/interview-with-legendary - -guitarist-larry-carlton Feel for you, Bob, on the long distance runaround. I never could last more than two months away from home on work and have to hand it to you for hanging in there so well.

Myself, I didn't have time to take the test so, being a believer in the honour system, with head held low and a tear in my I, I slowly walked over to the bus stop, all of my belongings tied up in a bundle thrown over my shoulder. The bus showed up hours later but they wouldn't let me on because I had lost my wallet and all my cash - probably at Starbucks where I had, over an overpriced Latte earlier been engrossed in the JMDL-list vs JMDL-Facebook debate. So here I am, in the middle of the night, standing outside of the Starbucks, stealing their free Wi-Fi, waiting for them to open in the morning. (I Hope they found my Wallet) Maybe I SHOULD have taken the test. /Robban - -----Original Message----- From: owner-joni@smoe.org [mailto:owner-joni@smoe.org] On Behalf Of Jamie Zubairi Home Sent: den 24 januari 2011 22:51 To: bworkman@woh.rr.com Cc: Les Irvin; joni@smoe.org Subject: Re: New JMDL membership requirement LOL Reading Les' email, you would probably note the humour with which it was written.
