Joni's "shuffle" is often a rather complex 12/8 pattern where it's hard to tell where 1 is. I'm thinking of Crazy Cries of Love or Harlem in Havana in particular. She's definitely got some drummer bloodin her as those are not your typical coffeehouse strums. Even the programmed Lucky Girl is a weird shuffle, with the xylophone accenting 6 beats in the bar, the ride cymbal playing in 4 and the snare backbeat placed on the last eighth note of the 12/8 groove. Too bad it wasn't played by a band - it might have had some sashay.
