Yes, a bit of unpaved paradise. Joni Mitchell would be proud." http://www.thestar.com/life/2013/06/21/behind_a_vaughan_fire_hall_a_community_garden_grows_food_for_the_needy.html ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 21 Jun 2013 07:03:01 -0700 (PDT) From: Catherine McKay Subject: Four musicians pay tribute to legendary singer-songwriter Here's one from a few days ago that I missed. Maybe someone else already posted this link and, if so, I miss it and apologize for the redundancy. This one comes from the Toronto Star, June 18. Four musicians, Vince Ditrich from Spirit of the West, Herbie Hancock, David Wilcox and Emily Saliers of the Indigo Girls, talk about Joni and her influence on them, or, in the case of Herbie Hancock, their work with her. http://tinyurl.com/kca5uwj http://www.thestar.com/entertainment/music/2013/06/18/joni_mitchell_at_luminato_four_musicians_pay_tribute_to_legendary_singersongwriter.html ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 21 Jun 2013 17:31:50 +0000 (UTC) From: johncalimee@frontier.com Subject: Re: This rain. Hi Jamie, Assuming her health continues to progress to a better place, I'm certain you will hear "This Rain" as a song. In fact, it is already half way in song form since the musicians behind her ran with a concrete score. Although if this score wasn't written by her, I'm sure she would lift it or stretch it to make it her own. What we have here is very much in keeping with other songs she's written. Lead Balloon started a brief riff of a few chord progressions. 'If' absolutely started as a poem. And we know her ability to weave a melody to the written word is off the charts spectacular. As witnessed by Yvette in English, among countless others. Then we have her own comments during the Luminato Interview where she says the words NEED melody because singing would allow her to put a kind of emphasis on certain words, and in the right place. And because of that she said she might try to sing a bit of it to achieve that effect. So certainly I think she looks at this as a song in its formative state. On Tuesday she had a more energy for the thing, I think because she was determined not to bomb. The drama of the first night was more clearly defined by her. And she took the daring to scat something. Very much like where we got a glimpse of Joni's creative process with Two Grey Rooms. I believe the same to be true of the 'poem' she's written about her mother. Given Joni's long time feelings about poetry I don't think she's keen on doing 'stand alone' prose. And I also have a feeling that when she does write a song/music/melody, whatever, she's not the type to let it sit unused. Just as she did not let One Week Last Summer simmer in a vault. So if she's health, and that's a big if, I think Brian Blade and company will not let her fade away beneath some pool table. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 21 Jun 2013 09:02:47 -0500 From: Laura Stanley Subject: Joni's voice and sinuses Joni said a sinus problem has contributed to her voice problem. Acid reflux at night can aggravate the sinuses and cause chronic sinus problems if not treated with a proton pump inhibitor and dietary/lifestyle changes. Acid reflux is hell on a singing voice. The voice becomes unpredictable because of sinus drainage and effects on the vagus nerve that can sporadically stop movement of the laryngeal muscles altogether. It can also cause heart arrhythmia's due to the vasovagal reflex. Singers sometimes use lemon juice to stimulate the salivary glands to produce a watery secretion rather than a mucus secretion. Citric acid in citrus fruits can cause worse acid reflux so it isn't helpful in that case. What can be more helpful is an anti-histamine nasal spray used the night before singing together with use of a proton pump inhibitor like Omiprazole or even better, Nexium. Hope this info is useful to all you singers out there. Acid reflux doesn't always cause heart burn pain but can manifest as chronic sinus problems, arrhythmia's, and not feeling rested in the morning. Doctors can miss it.

I will keep them all and read them when I can do justice to their content. Ibm thrilled for all of those who got to witness these auspicious events and know exactly how emotional it can be to be in her physical presence. Thanks very much for sharing everything with those of us who werenbt able to make it. One question I have... Is there a program other than Tubesucker for extracting and saving youtube videos? Tubesucker currently doesnbt work and Ibd like to download a couple of Luminato videos along with some others not of interest here.

I have written about this here: - -------- Original-Nachricht -------- Datum: Wed, 12 Jun 2013 16:40:12 +0200 Von: Moni Kellermann An: JMDL To DOWNLOAD a video from YouTube there are many options. The easiest are extensions or browser plugins. Firefox: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/easy-youtube-video-downl-10137/ - - this will create an extra "download" button right on the YT video page. You can then choose the video format you want to download, it's also possible to select the audio format mp3 which comes in handy if you find a "video" which is actually just an uploaded audio recording. Or, in this case, if you want to have the interview on your mp3 player or in your car to just listen to as well. Opera: http://rossy2401.github.io/youtube-video-download/ - this script also creates a download button on each YT page which lets you choose the video format (for mobile phones as well) but is missing the audio option. If you are on a computer where you cannot or don't want to add any plugins or scripts, you can convert any video to mp3 by copying the YT page URL to http://anjo.to/ where you then can download the mp3 file. In case you prefer a fast stand-alone program, try http://www.4kdownload.com/products/product-videodownloader. It is available for Windows (also portable), Mac and Linux. You can download any available video format and/or extract the audio as mp3/m4a/ogg. The advantage of using this is that you can paste one URL after another and then - in this case, for example - download all 3 video parts simultaneously.

I'm so physically and emotionally wiped right now that I can't even type. Bill and I got in last night at 12:30AM from our drive straight from Toronto (well, with a side trip to a fabulous local winery and Niagra Falls) to home in Indianapolis. We hit the rental car drop-off at 8:30am today, then I was off to work at The Jazz Kitchen from there. I promise to post what happened after I get home from the club tomorrow night, as I can barely type right now. What an incredible night, as well as a fabulous dinner beforehand meeting the fellow jmdl folks. Although I'm the / was (hee, hee) The Ultimate Lurker, everyone at dinner welcomed the two of us with open arms. Les, please send me your mailing address to send you a jmdl donation. Not only did I find out that you live in the same town in Colorado as BIll's sister and her family, we seemed to have sat in your ridiculously FABULOUS seats for Tuesday's concert. OXOXOXOXOXOXO. I think the last time we emailed back and forth was when I had the mystery date of a Joni article from the 80's. :) And I think I may owe Paz my first born as well. Not that at almost 52 yrs. old that's gonna happen... Geez, I gotta hit the hay. I'm delirious. More tomorrow!
