She appears to be partying harder at her 70th than I did at my 30th. I was thinking I should step up ny game. Then again, she is a rock star. I would never try to party like Keith Richards. This female folk singer label leads to misconceptions even among those who should know better. Also, who are these Lucky Girls?!

I always thought so. As for this one: n 1967, Jimi Hendrix attended one of Mitchell's concerts at Le Hibou in Ottawa after playing a concert at the Capitol Theatre. With Mitchell's permission, Hendrix recorded her performance. Unfortunately, both Jimi's recorder and the tapes were stolen several days later. OK, 'fess up now. Who has Jimi's recorder and the tapes?

Vote for your favorite Joni song here: http://www.parade.com/226730/linzlowe/joni-mitchell-turns-70-whats-your-favor ite-joni-mitchell-song/ After I voted, I looked at the results. I think it is especially telling about Joni's catalog of compositions that with 10 songs to choose from, "Other" with 25% of votes, ranked second behind Both Sides, Now. Perhaps it is because Parade didn't list any songs after Court & Spark and only Both Sides, Now from two first two albums, but how many singer/songwriters have such a diverse catalog to produce poll results like that? Perhaps only five of the 10 Parade listed -- For Free, You Turn Me On, Big Yellow Taxi, Free Man in Paris and Both Sides, Now -- would be on my top 10, thouh California and Woodstock would make my top 20.

Her 2nd marriage lasted about 10 years. Bob, in lovely San Diego hanging with Lindsay and awaiting an amazing night of Joni music and fun.

McNamara Sent: Tuesday, November 05, 2013 7:55 PM To: Joni Mitchell Subject: The Birthday Card is on its way ... I also decided at the last minute to send Joni a gift. I've been thinking about sending this item to her for a long time, but I loved it so much I hated to part with it. It is a wooden music box I found on ebay that plays Both Sides Now. It has a carved yellow finch on the cover of the box which is pretty nice. I made a little video of it a couple of years ago. You can see it in the link below. Sue, I admire you for sending the music box to her, but I regret to say that I suspect she could not possibly treasure it as much as you have.
