I'm very thankful for all Joni has given us, and I don't care if she never realeases any old recording or outtake or whatever. I'm sure she has her aesthetic reasons and I respect her very much for that. I don't plan on buying 'Love has many faces' either, and I don't feel like I'm betraying her or anything of the sort. But I'm glad she's still active and still loving music.

As a big fan of his work, I found it fascinating. I'm sure he never imagined that anyone would see any value in it. Now they've unearthed some unpublished work of his (perhaps just some things that were refined and released) that will be published soon. Was exciting news to his hordes of fans. Just to be clear, I TOTALLY respect Joni wanting complete control of her work. At the same time I can't help but be fascinated by the Pandora's Box full of stuff that's out there.

Been away a bit but had to chime in. Laughed out loud and needed it. I remember seeing the movie (Downfall) some years ago.
