I also thank you for another great covers CD. I loved the Hebrew covers from Chava Alberstien, but my favorite was the wonderful harmonies from Kicks & Sticks Voices singing "Blue".

Later on the same page, she quotes Joni saying >"I would say [I was] a folksinger from 1963 to 1965. When I crossed the border, I began to write. Once I began to write, my vocal style changed. My Baez/Collins influence disappeared. Almost immediately, when I had my own words to sing, my voice appeared." Jim L.

I circled about the morass of pages at google/YouTube and finally found a very simple button "Report a Problem". I made a simple statement about the issue and I hope they will look at it. Lol! Don't ask me how I found it...it was through a link for "Copyright Violations." I'm drunk from the circling! I think we should all send to the person who put that up there reminding them that they are pirating someone's work. Often it sends them running for cover. Online this crap is a pain to enforce. It's just a shame for artists to lose and as someone else mentioned, it trickles down to all of us in higher prices for music, tickets, etc. Or as we are often reminded, shit rolls downhill! :( Peace, Sally Sent from Confunction Junction on my iPhone On Nov 4, 2012, at 5:01 AM, Jussi Pukkila wrote: > There's a "flag as inappropriate" button under the video, maybe that is it?

I don't think he was a burn-out in '67. Maybe later, when he was addicted and his wife nearly left him. But even then, he got a good song out of it and came back from the brink. Later, on page 97, Katherine said, >Mitchell's "Woodstock" captured the >zeitgeist of the Summer if Love so >completely that even Crosby- a >highly accomplished and altogether >prolific songwriter... Maybe it's just me. I wouldn't say that Crosby is either highly accomplished or prolific. What is your opinion? Jim L'Hommedieu ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 4 Nov 2012 18:22:29 -0500 From: jlhommedieu@insight.rr.com Subject: Joni & Neil Katherine Monk discusses Joni and Neil together in a chapter about polio. About Joni, Katherine said, >To cope with the crisis, she >sang, painted, looked at the little >Christmas tree her mother brought >her and prayed to no particular god, >or maybe no god at all. In Karen's book, she mentions Joni painting in a coloring book that had lyrics to Christmas caroles. Katherine describes Neil's trip to the hospital like this: >Splayed out in the back seat of the >family car for the ninety-mile trip, >Young wore a mask and hugged >the toy train his father had given >him that morning. I noticed that both songwriters cling to these parental gifts to this day: Joni to her paint and Neil to his toy trains. I don't know quite what that means but it seems important.

Sting could simply not exist at all and I wouldn't miss him (except for the 1st couple of Police albums). I agree with the Mellencamp-level rating, maybe. Loudon W III? < To: Cc: JMDL Sent: Sunday, November 4, 2012 9:33 PM Subject: Re: Quibbles about Crosby, njc Sting, McCartney, Springsteen, Dylan, and Mitchell are accomplished and prolific. I might have missed a few. I have lots of Csn records but I count David Crosby among the 2nd tier folks like Louden, & Mellencamp. Really good but maybe not accomplished. Like I said, it's just my two cents. Jim L ------------------------------ End of JMDL Digest V2012 #1653 ****************************** ------- To post messages to the list, sendtojoni@smoe.org.
