Bob NP: Heartless Bastards, "Marathon" ________________________________ From: Susan Tierney McNamara To: Joni Mitchell Sent: Monday, February 13, 2012 8:17 PM Subject: Ithaca Joni Mitchell Tribute, Sat Feb 18 So I've been slated to do a radio interview on Wednesday for WSKG in Binghamton! I'm nervous!! I think they have streaming capabilities ... not sure if it's live or what but I'll let you all know so you can listen in if you want. WSKG.org. probably mid-day. If any of you are in the area the event is Saturday, Feb 18 at the Community School of Music and Art., State St. Ithaca NY 14850 - 7 - 10 p.m. The format is going to be a little different this year, more of a sing-a-long with performers trading songs on stage. It's going to be so much fun!! :-) Send us some good Joni vibes folks!!!

I know her pop and high gloss may not be to everyone's tastes but, to me, her voice could transcend any song into something strikingly beautiful. Big loyal fan, too. Last night I got into a little debate with a friend. He was raving on about Adele and saying that she has pure soul and that Whitney was just a "trained singer" (!) and never had soul. I said to him, "yes, that is true, Whitney is not soul, she is HEART." He quickly agreed and backed off ;-) RIP Whitney - we will miss you.

No wonder it was so effortless. Still she had some great pipes. - -----Original Message----- From: owner-joni@smoe.org [mailto:owner-joni@smoe.org] On Behalf Of Em Sent: Tuesday, February 14, 2012 11:19 AM To: joni@smoe.org Subject: RE: WHitney Houston (njc) Not sure if this has been mentioned - and it doesn't really matter, but I believe I read that "Star Spangled Banner" that W.H. NAILED so perfectly for that Superbowl, (here in Tampa, btw) was pre-recorded - so she's lip-synching. Still, one of the best ever.

News reports said that Jennifer Hudson was grief stricken at the Grammys ... she is definitely a soul daughter of Whitney. If a statistician looked at the quality of Star Spangled Banner performances over the past 40 years (Rosanne Barr taken out as an outlier) Whitney Houston's effortlessly perfect performance in this clip had to be in the top 1 percent. So sad ... addiction sucks. ------------------------------ End of JMDL Digest V2012 #188 ***************************** ------- To post messages to the list, send tojoni@smoe.org.
