My US version is Reprise 6293-2. I don't think the catalog no. would change when it was remastered. ODDLY ENOUGH, while looking at my CD, it does not have the HDCD logo on the disc itself, only on the rear of the tray card (and it had a 'remaster' sticker on front). My copy is clearly the remastered one. It also says "Mastered by Joe Gastwirt at Ocean Way Digital Mastering. Mastering supervised by Julie La???? (unreadable). Repackaged by Robbie Cavolina" on the rear. ps Does anyone know what "Lee Keefer and Joni Mitchell on banshee" means? RR Doug wrote: > This was Ottawa. Ontario .

Is a banshee the strange musical instrument that is played in "Nathan La Franeer"? It sounds kind of like a harmonica (it just now reminded me of the harmonica in the film "Once Upon a Time in the West"). Can anyone suggest the most straight-forward method for obtaining the HDCD version of STSG (which on vinyl has so little volume that the rumble of my turntable makes it nearly unlistenable)?

That's the one song of Joni's that I HATE, absolutely cannot tolerate listening to. My head knows and appreciates that there's humor in it, but emotionally I don't feel it. I HATE the way Joni's begging for something from such a withholding guy. Her frustration and self-insults in that song strike too close to home for me, and every time I listen to it I just want to shake Joni and tell her not to waste her time on such a cold guy. Anyone that stingy doesn't deserve Joni, or anyone to care about him from my point of view. It's been years since I've heard that song... it must bring up issues... apparently still unresolved ones...

It would make more sense if she said that before the introduction not afterward. Unless she was performing with a troupe of mimes, I can't see how "Troupe" would fit. But, it is an interesting take on what she could be saying.

Can't relate to "Case of You", or "River" or "edith and the kingpin" or "Lakota"... (i am serious about the first two) BUt, really, I can see why you would strongly dislike it and I agree. I only like this song because I can see myself as this sort of helpess soul begging for any crumb of attention. I suppose as I have matured and become more sure of myself, I have stopped sittting around craving a guy coming up to me, but inturn started thinking of ways to approach him!! The line of this one song of Joni's which is a cover anyways, so I guess it doesnt count that i thought was really corny (pun intended) is when she sings in "How do you Stop" "How do you stop the ripening corn?" And Turbulent Indigo was my first Joni album, I recall thinking, I like this cd alot, except for the "corn" line. I still get a giggle out of that.
