Thanks for the news, Jackie! Of course, I can't get BBC4 (only on radio, but that does not count, I guess! :-) So if there's any chance of getting your video treed, I'd be very happy! (I may still order the DVD, just to get some of the missing bits...) All the best, Lieve. PS Azeem, sorry to hear you were not feeling too bright some time ago. I caught up with the digests too late to react but just want to let you know that it was not indifference! I do hope you're feeling different by now. Sending you some positive vibes! -----Original Message----- From: Gertus@aol.com [SMTP:Gertus@aol.com] Sent: Sunday, June 15, 2003 8:07 PM To: brightonmick@hotmail.com; ReckersL@ebrd.com; AzeemAK@aol.com Cc: joni@smoe.org Subject: BBC 4 showing Joni Mitchell, A Woman of Heart and Mind!!!! Unbelievable! Following the completely negative responses from the Beeb to my e-mails requesting that WOHAM be shown, I've just discovered that it's being transmitted on Tuesday night on BBC 4 at 9 pm! And I've just ordered the DVD - typical. Sadly, the percentage of the population who can get this channel is not that high but, spread the word. I have to go out but will try to ensure the video is set.

Tom Green was sitting in for Dave. I was instantly taken in by his music, the performance was all about the guitar and the lyrics, no fancy overdone showmanship. He said his first CD just came out. I went to Best Buy but they didn't have it. I Really think we will be hearing a lot of him, at least I hope so. Now I have to find out if he is touring while in the US. We should invite him to "Jonifest"! I did buy "Bare" by Annie Lennox, it is so beautiful, the writing on the back cover reminds me of how Joni was exposing herself on "Blue," and since they stated Friday on the Today Show that Joni was her biggest influence, I'm sure Joni's honesty and rawness on "Blue" was a big influence on this CD.

I am new to the list and will probably lurk a lot, but I am so hungry for more of Joni--she is a rare treat these days, it seems, unless you really search. As a teen in the seventies, I wore out my copies of Court and Spark and Hejira. I just got a new turntable, and have absolutely loved hearing these gems again. I was taken back to those some feelings and emotions that were stirred then, just like they were fresh this day. I saw the PBS special on her a few weeks ago and was left wanting MORE MORE MORE. I was delighted to hear about her daughter and grandchildren. What a neat, sweet drama. On VH1 Classic a few days ago, I saw her video with Peter Gabriel (My Secret Place) and was inspired by her artsitry that never seems to wane. That lady rocks! Well, nice to meet you all, and I look forward to reading your posts.

If you want more, more, more, then you're in the right place. I also recommend you get yourself to jonimitchell.com and start sifting through there. Between the two sites (jmdl.com being the other) you will be over your eyeballs in Joni Mitchell "stuff" and in great company with others who share your enthusiasm.

It was nice hearing your thoughts on Joni, so don't lurk for long, and don't stay a stranger. Hmmm, would you consider the Northeast Jonifest? where a good time is guaranteed to be had by all? There's always lots of Joni music and plenty for room for more people - check it out at www.jmdl.com and look for the Jonifest picture on the top right of the website - click on the picture and voila - like magic, the jonifest info will appear.

We can only see the tip of the iceberg of how she is affecting the course of music. She is in a class of her own, and we won't be able to grasp the depth of that for at least decades to come. Her's is a timeless talent, like a comet that only comes to the earth every thousand years or so... and when it does, it lights up the sky and raises eyes towards the heavens, waking people up, getting them to see more than they would normally see. I thank God for her and pray for her to be eternally happy.

It IS a wonderful space! If a flame war develops just ignore it and move on (Anita, it's just a false alarm). There are tons of Joni live shows to discover on CD and video trees, and Bob Muller's Covers and Contributions to collect, and we are all happy to help a brother or sister out. Also check out PazFest CD at cdbaby.com/pazfest and Big Yellow Taxi at cdbaby.com and sign up to be in that number at Jonifest in the Catskill Mountains August 8-11 where you to can meet real live JoniPeople and participate in singalongs or perform a set of your original music or... Well you get the idea. Check out the reviews from past fests and you will see what I mean. Best of luck to you. Michael Paz (in New Orleans) P.S.
