Mark in Seattle - -----Original Message----- From: Dave Blackburn Sent: Tuesday, March 11, 2014 4:47 PM To: JMDL JMDL Cc: Chris Coccaro ; Randy Remote Subject: Paprika Plains It is done. A transcriber's odyssey has been completed. Beginning with my interview with Mike Gibbs last year and then a casual question as to whether he might still have his original score to Paprika Plains, he then seached his house for a couple of weeks and located some old photostats of his handwritten score from 1977 which he sent me. Zoomed way in they were just legible. They only included the parts that he himself wrote, not the piano and vocal parts leading up to the orchestral interlude or the recapitulation after it. So a melding of his score with a new transcription of the piano and vocal parts needed to be done. At this time, my friend and co-transcriber in Australia, Michael Dunn, happened to contact me regarding something else and I mentioned that I was working on PP since Mike Gibbs had made it feasible. Between us we were able to complete the work in three months, and then we sent it to Mike Gibbs for his approval. He proof read it and was very pleased with the work. The full score, in 11x17 format http://jonimitchell.com/music/transcription.cfm?id=506 and a piano-vocal chart in 8.5x11 http://jonimitchell.com/music/transcription.cfm?id=507 is put up on the website today for all to peruse and study. We hope Joni researchers and historians will find this undertaking useful as well as musicians wanting to learn the piece. cheers, Dave Blackburn (and Michael Dunn) ------------------------------ End of JMDL Digest V2014 #416 ***************************** ------- To post messages to the list,sendtojoni@smoe.org.
