This is technically accurate, but misses the point since any record released in Jan. 1974 was recorded, mastered and manufactured in 1973. In Dec., Asylum Records released a new single, her first in over a year, "Raised On Robbery". However, there WAS an earlier version. In Sept. Elektra/Asylum records released #EK-PROMO 22 (WLP) "Elektra/Asylum Fall 1973 Releases" "Raised On Robbery" was included in a version that's slightly different than the final version included on COURT AND SPARK. There vocals are slightly different, and there is No Saxophone solo. - - - - - - On Nov. 6, 1982, Joni was interviewed by Richard Stanley for the BBC Radio 1 "Rock On" program. In 1983, Geffen Records released a limited edition UK-only package of two 7 singles with an edited version of the interview on side one and details of a special contest on side two. The other record was "Chinese Cafe/Unchained Melody" b/w "Ladies Man." - - - - - - Copies of both recordings can be DownLoaded at the following URL: andmoreagain, - - - - - - - - - - simonM ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 11 Jul 2014 16:39:39 +0100 From: Anita Gabrielle Subject: Re: ALTERNATE "Raised On Robbery" + (Music for DownLoading) Interesting stuff, Simon. The record you refer to at the end, I and Peter Carney ( first buyer of the Joni sunburst in 2003) separately drove miles to get a copy of the record in order to enter the competition. Of course we didn't know each other back in '83, but the special records were only available at certain shops and we were both devoted Joni fans, so driving miles seemed a good plan.100 signed prints of the cover of WTRF were the prizes. I got numerous friends to enter and so did Pete. When he and I first met in 2004, we both discovered that we each had done the same -won ten copies of the print and both of us had given nine away to Joni fans we met along the way. My only remaining copy is framed in my lounge and Pete's is in his study. I would describe Peter and his wife Pat as among my very best friends.
