Its great to see Joni on the cover. The first book on rock I ever had was by New Musical Express and they were very enthusiastic of Joni's Hissing period, whereas here the reaction was decidedly mixed. I'm always seeing at newstands here limited edition magazine/booklet issues by Time Life, etc on musicians, recently The Who, Grateful Dead, U2, Marley but I can't imagine them doing a cover of Joni, so let's here it for the Brits!

Along with Jeff, I also love seeing the appreciation of Joni by her fellow musicians.

Swift's Bad Blood Video njc Just wanted to clarify something I wrote: "I agree that Bad Blood is a slick Hollywood production that obscures what music value there is, which I think mostly comes from her collaborator in that song, Kendrick Lamar. I think most of us Joni fans here are older so I presume that most of us are not as vulnerable to the normalizing effects of slick contemporary Hollywood images of violence. But Swift's audience is largely adolescents and teenagers and those slick violent images may affect some of them." What I want to be clear about is that I think Kendrick Lamar contributes the most music value to the video. Also quite a bit of media research on younger audience members being more susceptible to violent images than adults. best, ava ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 25 Jun 2015 13:06:40 +0100 From: lawntreader@googlemail.com Subject: Re: Rules, njc What a very wise woman she was Anita > On 25 Jun 2015, at 12:35, Bob.Muller@Fluor.com wrote: > > Like my Mom used to say, "you're old enough for your wants not to hurt > you." > > Bob > > NP: Sonic Youth, "Cinderella's Big Score" > > > > From: "Jim L'Hommedieu" > To: Bob Muller , > Cc: JMDL > Date: 06/24/2015 05:45 PM > Subject: Rules, njc > Sent by: owner-joni@smoe.org > > > > <> > > No fair!

Wow I just totally dug the crap out of Amy MacDonald! Holy hell that was excellent and I do thank you for sharing it. I'm always so elated when somebody turns me on to something I would otherwise have missed. Thank you! Can you recommend one record to try first? BTW I'm guessing you may know and like Beth Hart? She regularly records with Joe Bonamassa.

We got here with open minds...let's hope we don't close them at this late date. Cmon! I think the current breakdown of the music industry has actually brought things around and we are seeing many more small and deserving artists that now have a platform. Bring it...I'm never going to stop listening. The only thing that should separate us from new tunes is death. And even then, I've got a pretty good feeling music is at the forefront of even that next frontier! ;D > > Sent from Confunction Junction on my iPhone > > > On Jun 24, 2015, at 11:25 AM, Bob.Muller@Fluor.com wrote: > > > > Maybe I'm an old fuddy duddy but where is the current generation's > > 'music'?
