This passing on a bit of misinformation that becomes fact reminds me of when I was in college I would read back, bound issues of Rolling Stone in the library stacks (instead of studying) and RS at the year end issue of '75 called Hissing, "the worst album title of the year" For years Joni would say in the press that they called it "worst album of the year" until someone corrected her. Calling your album worst title of the year isn't very nice anyway. I remember when Joni said she played Hissing for Dolly Parton when it came out and Dolly said, in her southern accent, "my golly, if I ever thought that deep I'd scare myself to death" Joni talks a lot about pretense. There must be a certain line to her whereby a performer doing her is doing it with feeling and the proper emotion as opposed to someone "just singing" I remember her talking about British guys that sound like Bob Dylan and wondered if she was talking about Mark Knophler. He does sound like Dylan, but to me he dosen't seem to be copying him, but to her maybe it does and she dosen't like it.Everything I've heard is that Joni is super friendly and fun in conversation and yet fiercely intelligent. Kakki, I remember you discussing your encounter with her at the Daily Grill and how great it was. I had several trips to LA and went to the Grill (in the early afternoon, after her sleepy time) but she wasn't there. (The waitress said "oh, she comes here all the time, she' s a cool lady!) My favorite Joni thing in LA was going to the Baked Potato (where she met the LA Express). What a cool place! Nothing but baked potatos on the menu and outstanding music, down in the valley. I'd go there all the time.

I still haven't listened to the last 15 minutes of the interview though.. REally nice to hear her. And I wonder if some of the things she said would look worse in print than it does being spoken?

The interviewer was a true fan and had some original questions. If I hear her tell that %$&^%$ Mabel Mercer story one more time, I'm going to kick her in the shins. I cringed when she got asked if there was anyone who was carrying her torch but really liked her answer - "If there is I haven't heard them" which at least has her holding on to hope that someone out there may be up to her standard. I thought it was very enlightening and enjoyable. Lots of things I had not hear her talk about which is extremely refreshing.
