["Kakki" ] Re: what is your most admired image in Mitchell's work [dsk Subject: Re: What's your favorite Joni album? It's hard for me to pass up any kind of poll-type question like this. However, it's even harder for me to pick just one. Rather than pick just one favorite, I'll say that right now, for me, the top tier of Joni albums consists of _For the Roses_, _Hejira_, _The Hissing of Summer Lawns_ and _Turbulent Indigo_. Of course, this is subject to change at any time, and certainly will once I'm able to replace my copy of _Blue_ (I've already been to two stores, neither of which were sufficiently Joni stocked).

I can't find him with a Yahoo search. Anyway, I thought that Rolling Stone busted Joni and David Geffen (or Elliot Roberts) said something like "look, it's a composite. She changed his name. I know he's suing us. But we can't pay *everyone* who doesn't like us." Anyway, my favorite Joni album is which ever one is playing at the moment. There are only 3 out of 21 that I *don't* play very often. Lama np: "The Last Waltz" featuring Muddy Waters- (hey, a blues man!) and some chick folk-singer with a guitar. (I'm kidding Joni! MMMwah!) ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 28 Jan 2001 06:48:37 -0500 From: "Megan" Subject: What's your favorite Joni album?

For instance as many of you know on the vinyl release of HOSL the People and the snake are embossed, so if you were to feel the record, they "pop out" of the cover slightly. That is the only difference i could tell so far. I think it would be cool if they released joni cds as truthful to the records as they have been doing lately.. with artists like King Crimson (LiZard) and Cat Stevens.. SO, you would open the cd just like the gatefold of a record and see joni swimming there in all her glory. blair >From: "cassy" >Reply-To: "cassy" >To: "Jim L'Hommedieu" >CC: "Joni List" >Subject: Hejira vinyl cover >Date: Sat, 27 Jan 2001 00:36:14 -0500 > >lamadoo wrote: > > >>> Are you implying that vinyl is dead Bob? > > >>>and sports detail not visible in smaller versions. <<< > >such as the three persons walking across the ice over the bride's left >shoulder on the back! > >Has anyone noticed any missing detail on other CD reproductions of the >original album art? > >Cassy >(another vinyl aficionado) _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 28 Jan 2001 10:00:10 -0600 From: "J.David Sapp" Subject: what is your most admired image in Mitchell's work This image just slays me: But now the janitors of Shadowland flick their brooms at me peace, david ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 28 Jan 2001 11:14:31 EST From: Dflahm@aol.com Subject: Re: what is your most admired image in Mitchell's work I might think of another one later, but right off the bat, I'd say you'd have a hard time topping kisses like bright flags on a holiday LAHM ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 28 Jan 2001 11:49:31 EST From: RoseMJoy@aol.com Subject: Re: what is your most admired image in Mitchell's work My most admired image: When I spotted six jet planes Leaving six white vapor trails across the bleak terrain It was the hexagram of the heavens (6 lines from the I Ching perhaps?) it was the strings of my guitar Rose in NJ ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 28 Jan 2001 16:59:06 -0000 From: philipf@tinet.ie Subject: Re: what is your most admired image in Mitchell's work There's virtually one in every song.

I listened to it & taped it when it was first broadcast. It was before JMDL and the only live Joni I had ever heard were S&L, MOA & Coyote from 'The Last Waltz'. That was the first time I heard 'Facelift' and it helped me realize I had the right to be happy & even love again. I had lost my partner of 9 years to AIDS just two years before & thought I would never fall in love again or know the happiness of sharing my life with someone special again. 'Facelift' helped move the process of healing along. Thank you, Joni!

I just purchased the Cd, and it does include Joni and her voice and it is a great album. Ironically, Rickie Lee Jones has done the same thing and has included her own version of "Trouble Man." Somehow I think Rickie Lee Jones does indeed listen to Joni. From what I have read about both artists, they respect and admire each others work. Things have been said on both sides since they were often compaired. In my mind, Rickie Lee Jones shares more in common with Laura Nyro than Joni Mitchell. They both have very different approaches to music. Also, Aimee Mann, who is gaining more respect each day, has created one of the great albums of 2000, Bachelor Number Two. Let me know what you think of the site. Plus, if you have any information, art work, anything at all you want to post, or add, let me know. I am working on making this site a real resource as a supplement to the official Joni Mitchell web site. I do not want to replace it,since the official site is really great, I just want to put things into mine that may not fit the official site. So if there are rare songs by Joni Mitchell you want listed, lyrics, videos let me know. This past month I had the chance to hear for the first time, Eastern Rain. WInter Lady, Born to Take the Highway, Just like Me, Brandy Eyes, Blue on Blue and they are great songs! IT is really too bad they never made into into a box set. One song I have been looking for is Day by Day, her first song, and Hunter, the song that did not make the cut on Blue. Again, any obscure information, reviews, what ever, let me know. Also anything I can provide, let me know. The group has been really great about providing material. Right now my joni list includes all her recorded albums to the present, Shadows and Light on video and on DVD painting with words and music. Sadly, Shadows and Light on video is copy protected. If you can get a copy, do. It includes her take on songs not included on the record or cd. Also, Words and Music on DVD is excellent. It shows Joni Mitchell at her Jazz best with great backing.

To read comments like: "The Pirate of Penance makes absolutely no sense and the title track just drones on and one. The entire metaphor of a seagull representing freedom is just too bJohn Livingston Seagullb to really make any sense as anything other that a tired clichC)." as well as your brutal skewering of much of her body of work is just tough to take. Plus, there are LOTS of spelling errors (Carey referred to as "Carry", among others) and some out & out falsehoods. (Rolling Stone did NOT call HOSL the year's worst album, but rather the year's worst album COVER.) Anyway, after looking at it, and reading it all, I have to ask why you even bothered. If you really only like 5 or 6 of her records, delve into those and leave the others for those who appreciate them. I may say some negative things from time to time, but there's a difference between saying something in a discussion forum and creating a website that can be accessed by anyone. When you said that Hejira's title track (which I consider one of the greatest compositions ever) should have been left unsung, I had steam coming outta my ears! Really took me by surprise...while I appreciate the effort, I question your intentions. It's not like we don't already have access to unbelievably good Joni resources.

Arrrr, every time I'm reminded of this I think of "what might have been.." A close friend has a friend who was the PR director of the Autry at the time and she was always offering us VIP passes every week back then to all the events. We never took her up on it, arrrr. I had some wrong idea that anything at the Autry would be filled with old ladies and gentlemen listening to Dale Evans or something. Arrrrrrrrrrrr! It's only a few minutes drive from me, too. Ah well, live and learn. I totally agree it is one of her finest live performances ever. I would have fainted to have been there.
