You seem to be saying that if you are "more informed", you are "less infatuated". Actually...I'm not being a smartass here but I am totally infatuated with Joni Mitchell and her amazing artistry and I do consider myself informed. As for this dispute that's broken out here, I think people like the music that they like and they don't like the music that they don't like. If you're a fan of music, if you wake to it, let it put you to sleep at night, dream it, feel it, make love to it...if you are a freaking slave to the rhythm...then you're wide open to anything that moves you. It can be Bach, Joni, Miles Davis, Katy Perry, Eminem...whatever! Isn't it about doing something well? Isn't it? And isn't that why we all come together here? Our admiration for an astounding musical genius? There's room for anybody that moves us. If we close doors, crap...we miss so much beautiful sound. My two cents. I don't take it personally...what Bob had to say. He just doesn't like something. "Pea brain" was the first thing he thought of! Amusingly descriptive. ;) Katy Perry is young. I hope she hangs in there and makes some songs that blow everyone away. We could use more of that all the time.

The listers go far in turning the less infatuated, more informed persons away from the incredible music of Joni Mitchell. It is very sad how they are destroying her legacy to the new generations. > > Sent from my iPhone > >> On Oct 30, 2013, at 12:14 AM, David Marine wrote: >> >> Dear List, >> >> I do enjoy posting here, but these missives will have to evolve over time.
