I just did a bit of research on this: Dar's album, The Honesty Room, which included the *song* When I Was a Boy, was orginally released in 1993 on Dar's own label and then picked up by Waterbug Records before being released in 1995 on Razor & Tie. Jane Siberry's *album*, When I Was a Boy (with no song of the same name), was also released in 1993. This looks to be a simple case of coincidence - scroll about halfway down in the following link (http://darwilliams.net/FAQ.html), and it says the same thing.

My friend, who's writing a college term paper about JM (among others), accidentally erased her American Masters videotape. Can she get a copy from anyone on JMDL? Of course she will reimburse for copying and postage. The sooner the better. Please reply to me and I will put the two of you in contact.

In fact, I don't think I've ever heard it "pah-rah-dice." When I had an internship in London, our program coordinator was Scottish, and he pronounced a number of words very differently than us Americans were used to. In fact, one time at an internship group meeting, he kept asking us what "fruSTRAted us" and none of the Americans could understand him! Finally, after he said it three times, I told my colleagues, "He means 'FRUstrated,'" and they all said, "Ohhhh..." In other news, I recently came home for Easter prepared to steal my dad's tape of "Court and Spark" to accompany the tape of HOSL I stole from him in March. (He recently got a car with a CD player and is allowing my sister and me to take any tapes we want.) I put "Court and Spark" into my mom's boombox as I was getting dressed this morning and found it was worn out, so I threw it away! : ( I finished getting dressed to the tune of CSN's "Daylight Again," which was pretty good. I think dad still has a vinyl copy of "Court and Spark" in the basement that I can copy. I'll have to go spelunking after I finish my e-mail. - -Emily ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 17 Apr 2003 09:49:23 -0500 From: "Emily Griskavich" Subject: Paradise Lost, and raiding my dad's tape collection Dear Gordon, I'm from midwestern America and just about everyone I know pronounces it "pear-a-dice" like the fruit at the beginning.

Trinity Rep in Providence, Rhode Island, is one of the US's most respected regional theaters. The resident director (or whatever the head creative guy is called in a theater) is Oscar Eustis, who worked with Tiny Kirshner to create "Angels in America." When I lived in Providence I saw "Angels" and other plays there, and Trinity really is top notch. So I was very pleased today to read the following: "Celebrating its 40th anniversary season, the Providence-based troupe will introduce a new musical revue, Songs of Innocence, Songs of Experience, featuring the work of Stephen Sondheim, Joni Mitchell, Gershwin, John Prine and others. Amanda Dehnert handles direction and musical direction for the project.

They now list the DVD of Woman Of Heart & Mind for sale. They show a list price of 19.98, but their price is 14.99. It will be released on June 3. Amazon.com also has Shadows & Light in DVD; and Painting With Words & Music in both DVD and VHS. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 17 Apr 2003 15:22:46 -0400 From: SCJoniGuy@aol.com Subject: Re: Woman Of Heart & Mind DVD In a message dated 4/17/2003 2:14:14 PM Eastern Standard Time, bshemkovitz@bozzutos.com writes: > Amazon.com also has Shadows & Light in DVD; and Painting > With Words & Music > in both DVD and VHS. But the availability of the S&L DVD looks questionable...plus it's about $20 more than the Singapore guy charges through ebay - and he ships in a FLASH. I guess you can go either way but it looks like a no-brainer to me. But thanks for the alert on the WOHAM DVD...I'm anxious to see it in that format.

I had a bad experience last year trying to buy another disc from an Ebay seller, also from Singapore. Don't know if it's the same guy you're referring to, and I eventually got my money refunded by my credit card company, but only after some effort on my part, so I'm wary of them ever since. In any event I can't recommend ebay. I've bought lots of books & discs from Amazon, and never had any problem with them. I do agree about the price on the Shadows & Light disc, but I still feel more comfortable dealing with a company that I view as more reputable.

I've seen her a couple times, she did "Woodstock" the first time I saw her and introduced as a song from "The Mother of us all". Yes she is great...and she did "Woodstock" tonight as well and I told her all about the jonicovers, and the cover king from South Carolina, and she's agreed to send me a copy of the performance tonight to include in a future compilation! And it was quite superb...her whole performance was so entertaining-when I wasn't listening to her sing I was rolling over with laughter listening to her talk, she was so funny...

Must run, something smells odd coming from under the desk, and if I am right and have to drag out the rug shampooer at this ungodly hour, the Easter bunny will not be visiting a certain cat at my house... hell, the cat will be forced to dress up like the Easter bunny as punishment.... what a lovely thing to happen while we are planning an open house this weekend - What a great selling point! Note to Jimmy - you promised to send me daily cat-box cleaning reminders.... stop fantasizing about Roseanne Arnold and come back to reality my friend!
