Perhaps an Excel spreadsheet, sent to each person, with us to enter our top 48 by number and return to a central source for compilation (not that many crazies on this list who would take the time to do that ? I'm not so sure). The scoring structure would be interesting to set up. For example, one could give 48 points to a first place vote, and 1 pont to a 48th place vote. However, I sense that that would overweight the occasional very high placing. Let's say, for example, that there are 160 Joni originals eligible (would we leave off covers and collaborations ?). Then, one might give 112 points for a 48th place vote (that song beat out 112 other songs on that person's list), and 159 points for a first place vote. That structure, in turn, would underweight some songs that most people like a lot but many of whom would list it just outside of the top 48. However, getting everyone to rank all 160 songs might be a bit ridiculous. I think this poll should not even be anonymous !!! (oops - NJC) I suppose I could even set this up, but I am fairly backward in these things. Who runs the current poll site ? Maybe they are better placed ?

What is up with this story? Does anyone know why she stood Joni up? I read about this in People magazine back around the time of DED's release. Is Joni as unforgiving as I am about this?

Ironically, beginning in the mid-70's, the JAZZ festival would have been a more appropriate venue, but at some point, they stopped calling it the "Newport" jazz festival, in favor of KOOL, and later other corporate sponsors (JVC comes to mind). This reminds me of the typo in several photo captions in the "Joni Mitchell Companion", where it's referred to as the "Newport FALLS Festival". ~Dan At 05:02 PM 2/22/2003 +0000, you wrote: >On the Saturday digest, there was a Friday post with a link to an article >about Joni in the 1970s, which included, inter alia, a time when Joni said >she planned to ride with Judy Collins to the "Newport Jazz Festival" and >was stood up.

Someone on this list made up her own version and it was infinitley better. never let an artist pick out their own best-ofs. they never have a clue. (witness laura nyros stoned soul picnic double cd.). the solution is simple. let me do it. i know whats best. period. so without further adieu, here is the definitive joni mitchell box set. ive given myself some restraints. i believe around 20 cuts per cd is a good average, less on later work, because most artists get more long winded. oh, and one more thing. joni CANT do the graphics. She is the worst painter. THE WORST. i willdo the graphics. basically it will be a TON of black and white high contrast photos spanning her entire career, tiny color pix of each album, all lyrics and recording dates, and an extensive recent, and (hopefully) non crabby interview with joni. disc one: early years 1. winter lady (from radio) (so pretty and sad) 2. eastern rain (radio) (an amazing song-should have been on STAS) 3. both sides now (radio) (tuneful-up and flowing) 4. good samaratin (early version of (sort of) this flight tonight) 5. get together (live from big sur) (with csny& sebation) 6. things go better (jonis coke commercial) (it rocks and is so funny) 7. marcie (her best early song) 8. michael from mountains(sounds like a spirit is singing this in an empty house) 9. night in the city (never ceases to get me up-it's joni's "Dowtown") 10. cactus tree (just the best the best the best) 11. chelsea morning (another getter upper-the epitome of early joni) 12. both sides now (tho a little dirgy compared to the bbc radio versions) 13. i think i understand (so simple so beautiful and so well sung) (and that hag b. streisand should just hang it up) 14. that song about the midway (so sophisticated-and yes, bonnie raitt's is equally as good) 15. dawntreader (such an exqusite melody) 16. the gallery (enough little melodic hooks in this one for 3 songs) (it's about warren beatty) 17. rainy night house (so wonderfully strange and mysterious) 18. woodstock (not my fave-prefer csny version) 19. circle game (ick-always disliked this one-but must be here, i guess) 20. morning morgantown (so perfectly sweet) 21. urge for going (b side of radio-just about perfect) 22. for free (bet cha never heard petula clark's version) disc two: acclaimed years 1. carey (love when she rocks) 2. case of you (everyones favorite-not mine tho) 3. california (simple summery perfection) 4. blue ( important song, but too down for me) 5. river (so unusual and strange) (i just hate downey's version--who ever said that guy could sing) 6. all i want (pop perfection) 7. electricity (one of my top 10 - i cant hear it enough) 8. cold blue steel (amazing amazing AMAZING) 9. woman of heart and mind (another top 10 - speaks volumes) 10. for the roses (joni was peaking here for me) 11. barangrill (magic-top 10) 12. down to you (everyones favorite-but i need more melody) 13. court and spark (this one always takes me right back) 14. peoples parties ( top 10 perfection) 15. free man in paris (exciting with a great tune) 16. help me (a lot love it but its blah to me) 17. jericho live (good song, exciting in a live performance) 18. love or money live (ditto) disc three: peak years 1. dont interrupt the sorrow (certainly my fave from hissing, maybe my fave joni song of all time) 2. boho dance (subtle and gets better each year) 3. jungle line (exciting and dense) 4. in france they kiss on mainstreet ( refreshing as a spring evening) 5. shades of scarlett conquering ( very cinematic-and none other than elvis c just loves it, for its outstanding lyrics) 6. song for sharon (top 10--maybe top 1) 7. refuge of the roads (sublime) 8. amelia-(outstanding song from an outstanding album) 9. coyote-(this one reads like a really good novel) 10. hejira (its like watching a beautiful movie--top 10) 11. dry cleaner from des moines (so rich and very funny- unusual for joni) 12.

How about some of the DED tunes performed acoustically? And, her debut of Facelift at the Gene Autry Museum concert is spectacular! I much prefer it to the TTT version. I don't really see the need to compile a bunch of previously released stuff and put it out there again. (Although I do like hearing all the different ideas about listers' dream-concepts!) If you check out Rickie Lee's site, there are about 30 live performance CDs available as CDs or MP3 downloads. So, even though these are "bootlegs," Rickie Lee gets some income from them, and fans get a huge library of unreleased performances. I would be overjoyed to have a Joni catalogue like that to choose from! In fact, I might prefer that over another "record label" outing as a box set. Unless the songs on a box set are remixed, why have them just recompiled again?

I will add that the 20-track cd is probably closer to the truth than the 12-tracker that I had suggested. The CSNY 4-CD set averages about 20 tracks on each cd, and I would imagine that the audiences for Joni & CSNY have lots of crossover.
