McNamara" ] Re: Joni Mitchell Concert in 1979 [Bob.Muller@Fluor.com] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Tue, 7 Apr 2015 18:47:40 +0000 From: "Susan E. McNamara" Subject: RE: DJs on Joni I loved reading these reviews. Although I didn't always agree with the order (the confounding success of Turbulent Indigo ... Wha?) the writing was really superb. This line about Hissing of Summer Lawns cracked me up "Experimental, funky, and sophisticated, The Hissing Of Summer Lawns is the ideal gateway drug for any music fan that still insists on associating Mitchell with capos and coffeehouses." I'm feeling really sad today because a co-worker I really respected and cared about just upped and quit with no notice. "... written on your spirit this sad song ..."

That's the main one in circulation, if memory serves. Is Joni folk? Yes. Is Joni jazz? Yes. Is Joni rock? Yes. The blending and categorization of Joni at her finest is described in this great review of Hejira I read just today: http://tinyurl.com/k7ck5kq Excerpt: "This bold, and brilliant album daringly re-contextualizes disparate elements - jazz, poetry, ambient, folk - in real time; the result is fusion not in the traditional sense, but more literally defined, perhaps closer to the way we might now apply the word to cuisine." Feel free to read ALL 19 album writeups. I did and agreed with about 90% of what the writer says.

Quite a story, and I'm very jealous that you caught that tour. They were all good but that lineup in '79 was something special, no doubt.
