The Addicted To Noise website ran a blurb saying "Joni Mitchell is back in the saddle again, and she certainly proved it with a vengeance... when she performed an hour long show at the Gene Autry Western Heritage Museum. The show was broadcast live to 100 radio stations around the country, and demonstrated Mitchell's enduring talent. According to Robert Hilburn of the Los Angeles Times , she showed "her excellence both as a singer with exquisite instincts for phrasing and as songwriter with the originality and command of a poet." Choosing the venue was no accident, for Mitchell has a longtime love for singing cowboys, a point she made material by showing off an enlarged photograph of herself in a Roy Rogers outfit complete with hat and cap pistol- none of that Dale Evans crap for her. But you already knew that, didn't you." Just after the above show, Joni sat for a live "Cyber-Talk" that was carried live on AOL. Click the link for the transcript.

I've lately been analyzing these lyrics from Otis and Marlena: Watching three rings in the sun The golden dive, the fatted flake And sizzle in the [their?] mink oil In the DJRD songbook there is a period after 'sun.' The vinyl fold-out does not include a period; nor does the Complete Poems & Lyrics. At one point I thought that the three grammatical constructions after 'three rings' were 'dive', 'flake', and 'sizzle' and that they were all nouns and that they were all examples of the 'rings'. But now I think they are three verbs with two subjects: the golden [suntanned people] dive [into pools] the fatted [old people] flake [from sunburn] and sizzle in their mink oil [while suntanning] The point about 'three rings' representing a circus is a good one. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 26 Jan 2002 09:48:10 -0500 From: James Leahy Subject: Sleazing by the Sea In Otis and Marlena, Otis empties out the trunk on the steps of that celebrated dump. What is that 'celebrated dump'? The lyrics printed in the LP sleeve and in the Complete Poems and Lyrics offer no help. 'Sleazing by the sea' is on a separate line with no punctuation before or after. It appears that Otis is 'sleazing by the sea' while unloading the car. However, the lyrics in the DJRD songbook offer more guidance -- there is a colon after 'dump', and 'Sleazing by the Sea' is capitalized. Now it appears that this is Joni's nickname for the hotel that O&M are checking into. What follows are several references to the hotel's features: her royal travesty; her ballrooms; her bedrooms; her golden pools. The hotel is made female and evokes images of a madame and a whorehouse. The real name of the hotel is revealed later in the song: Miami Royal, thereby echoing the lyric 'royal travesty.' The average listener might not pick up all this on first hearing the song. It was only after I consulted the songbook and discovered the capitalization of Sleazing by the Sea that this all gelled for me. Slow, or what? What this brings up is: Does Joni have an editor? Does she proof her lyrics when they are printed? Does it really matter? I've always loved O&M, punctuation aside. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 26 Jan 2002 09:49:03 -0500 (EST) From: Catherine McKay Subject: Re: Three Verbs After 'Sun'? - --- James Leahy wrote: > I've lately been analyzing these lyrics from Otis > and Marlena: > > Watching three rings in the sun > The golden dive, the fatted flake > And sizzle in the [their?] mink oil > > In the DJRD songbook there is a period after 'sun.' > The vinyl fold-out > does not include a period; nor does the Complete > Poems & Lyrics.

I wouldn't be relying too heavily on the punctuation in any case for a couple of reasons - 1) there are often mistakes in the lyrics in any case (a prime example? boy winds! so the addition or omission of a period would be small potatoes) and 2) if it's poetry, esp. modern poetry, punctuation is sometimes minimal or not even there - which enhances ambiguity sometimes, and deliberately so. I think the three-rings representing a circus is right on. ______________________________________________________________________ Web-hosting solutions for home and business! http://website.yahoo.ca ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 26 Jan 2002 09:53:40 -0500 (EST) From: Catherine McKay Subject: Re: Sleazing by the Sea Joni's use of words truly shines in that song.

Old Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young has some great songs like that, like '4 and 20 Years Ago' and my favorite, 'Guineverre'. 'Strange Heart' by Jewel is real nice, and I also like Kate Rusby. I had a great album by Judy Collins which was all acoustic, just her and her guitar, with old favorite folk tunes like 'Twelve Gates to the City', 'I Buyed Me a Little Dog', 'Mr. Tamborine Man', and 'The Crow on the Cradle'. I think that good acoustic music is timeless, and you can enjoy it as far back as the original recordings can go.

You can read the article on the JM page. Kilauren sat right in front of me at the Joni hommage in October. Her purse was open almost at my feet. I should have looked at her drivers license to see the exact date of birth, but I didn't want Joni to slap me.

Hey, Paz, In a message dated 1/25/02 12:04:21 AM, referring to the VG8 and my comment regarding the muddy sound on PWWAM and TtT, you said, << It is NOT the fault of the processor, but the nature of the beast that programs one. >> That's what I thought -- she "n-tuples" (multiplies) the sound, producing what she calls "guitar orchestras" and what I call "muddy sound."

In the newest issue of "Acoustic Guitar" magazine -- March 2002, No. 111, pp. 40 ff., Song Craft (department), "Brand-New Day," by Jeffrey Pepper Rogers -- Lucy Kaplansky is quoted as follows: "I've never come from a traditional folk orientation," says Kaplansky in a phone conversation form her home in New York City. "I was mostly influenced by pop and singer-songwriters. Joni Mitchell was probably the most important influence of my life, and I loved James Taylor and Jackson Browne -- this was in the '70s." The paragraph continues with mentions of the Eagles, Gram Parsons, Emmylou Harris, Steve Earle and Buddy and Julie Miller. II.

Elsewhere, I have read about symbols of Scorpio being: Lower, Scorpion; middle, Snake; upper, Eagle; but the schema above says, lower, Scorpion, Serpent (snake) interchangably; middle, Eagle; upper, Phoenix. Between the two, there are four animal symbols. Good to know should I ever want to incorporate them into any kind of artwork. III.

I agree with Deb's assessment, as applied to the duo. I bought a copy, on cassette, of the same album Deb got on CD -- I did not have a CD player at the time -- the cassette version lacks the hidden track, but is otherwise the same. I'd love to have a copy of that track to, in a sense, "complete" my album, so, I hope it will show up on a future Covers and Contributions volume. Or, if it's already on one, I hope that Bob Muller will let us know. Thanks.

Hey, I was born Feb. 20th LOL! She's a Pisces girl all right. Her moon is in Libra though. Sun in Pisces, Moon in Libra This astrological combination indicates heightened inspirational and spiritual tendencies. Your mind and feelings are refined, and you seem to be a mild, benevolent individual. Because of your acute perceptions and reliable judgment, you have a capacity for assessing situations in their true light. Among friends and associates you are able to make your sensitive, intangible traits more substantial. Your fluidity of character takes on definite form in society, and perhaps for this reason you shun solitude. You will, therefore, seek marriage, partnerships, and associations. Your most conscious aim throughout life is always to find and express sympathy and human understanding. You dream of universal communion inspired by a poetical nature. The artistic sensibility - a receptivity to all things in the cosmos - is deep within your nature. The key to a more harmonious existence lies in becoming more determined and concentrating your efforts more closely. ~rose in nj ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 26 Jan 2002 20:41:52 EST From: Murphycopy@aol.com Subject: Re: the birthday of Joni's Daughter?

The name Kilauren comes from the people who adopted her. But Joni had named her Kelly before she gave her up. I guess I think that's significant because "Kelly" is a shade of (Little) Green.
