Here now I must finally jump in and give Fred his due, which is long overdue. So it's overdue due. I am the proud owner of Fred's "Songs of my youth, vol. 1" and can attest to the fact that this music is tasteful and beautiful and, if you don't find yourself trying to sing or hum along with it, then there's something wrong with you. Here's the track listing: - - Both sides now (JM) - - For free (JM) - - Michael from mountains (JM) - - Blackbird (Lennon&McCartney) - - Julia (L&M) - - Here, there & everywhere (L&M) - - For no one (L&M) - - The times, they are a-changin' (Dylan) - - Maurice (our very own Fred Simon) - - Ode to Joy (Ludwig Someone) Yes, do buy Fred's music.

Be sure to bring some binoculars if you're sitting far away from the stage. You won't want to miss the drama that goes on with the cast of characters. The themes are humorous, yet serious and deep. (Have you ever seen Neil's film "Human Highway?" - typical Neil humour combined with the seriousness of socio-political issues, and one of my all-time favorite indy films!) Luckily for me, the amphitheater I went to had additional big screens set up. Apparently Neil's coming to Milwaukee again for another show - back by popular demand!! In "The Last Waltz," Joni appears to be sort of melancholy and has a look like she's almost lost. But that's just my opinion. She also seems very annoyed at the end, when Neil is hanging all over her - but who wouldn't be? I heard an unconfirmed rumour that the film's producers had to touch-up the film to get rid of all the coke that was on Neil's face. Anyone else hear that one?

Doesn't the > term "chord" need to account for ALL the notes sounded? > DAVID LAHM By "chord progressions", I mean movement/changes of chords between I, ii, ii, IV, V, vi, vii, ii/V, iii/V, or whatever, etc., including modulating into a new key. A "chord" can have all the Joni-trimmings - i.e., 7s, 9s, sus's, 11ths, 13ths, etc. - and still be a I or a ii, or a ii/V or a vi or a v or whatever. If we ignore the trimmings, it's easier to see what the actual chord progressions are. I think Joni's chords are very interesting - by that I mean the basic chords with all the trimmings. The chord progressions themselves are not always that exciting. Hejira is a beautiful song. The lyrics are to die for. The chord progressions are mostly between I, IV and V during the singing part, and for the intro/interlude (as Howard calls it), it's ii and IMO IV/IV (Bb6/9/sus4) or even possibly rather the V7/9 (FF[A]CEbG - the 7th being in the bass, bottom string) resolving into the root of C - "I'm travelling in some vehicle". Hopefully this makes some kind of sense!

I can't foresee ever agreeing with you when you say "if we ignore the trimmings, it's easier to see what the actual chord progressions are." It's one thing to plot out/follow/chart the ROOT MOVEMENT...but if a chord is heard as an audible reality then every note in it has a consequence and none can be ignored. A C7th is a C7th and a Gmi7th is a Gmi7th. But a C7th with a suspended 4th is partaking of both C7th and Gmi7th. It can be played between the other two and the three in sequence will make sense as a movement from something to something else. My view.

Begin quote: A young woman was about to finish her first year of college. Like so many others her age she considered herself to be a very liberal Democrat and was for distribution of all wealth. She felt deeply ashamed that her father was a rather staunch Republican which she expressed openly. One day she was challenging her father on his beliefs and his opposition to higher taxes on the rich & more welfare programs. In the middle of her heartfelt diatribe based upon the lectures she had from her far left professors at her school, he stopped her and asked her point blank, how she was doing in school. She answered rather haughtily that she had a 4.0 GPA, and let him know that it was tough to maintain. That she had to study all the time, never had time to go out and party like other people she knew. She didn't even have time for a boyfriend and didn't really have many college friends because of spending all her time studying. That she was taking a more difficult curriculum. Her father listened and then asked, "How is your friend Mary?" She replied, "Mary is barely getting by", she continued, "all she has is barely a 2.0 GPA" adding, "and all she takes are easy classes and she never studies." But to explain further she continued emotionally, "But Mary is so very popular on campus, college for her is a blast, she goes to all the parties all the time and very often doesn't even show up for classes because she is too hung over." Her father then asked his daughter, "Why don't you go to the Dean's office and ask him to deduct a 1.0 off your 4.0 GPA and give it to her friend who only had a 2.0." He continued, "That way you will both have a 3.0 GPA and certainly that would be a fair equal distribution of GPA." The daughter visibly shocked by the fathers suggestion angrily fired back, "That wouldn't be fair! I worked really hard for mine, I did without and Mary has done little or nothing, she played while I worked real hard!" The father slowly smiled and said, "Welcome to the Republican Party."

Hell From The New Zealand Herald: Minimal electro-punk rocker queen hits the Barrier 15.01.2004 By GRAHAM REID There are places you'd expect to find electro-rocker Peaches: in the pages of rock magazines doing a photo shoot with Iggy Pop; her last album (with the X-rated title) in the best of 2003 lists; dancing on a bar in her adopted hometown of Berlin; possibly even in court for her use of profane language. Maybe the last place you'd expect this exciting queen of cussin' and sexually graphic, musically primitive electro-punk would be on Great Barrier Island last weekend at the time of Mussel Festival. But the sometimes bearded vixen and personal art statement has been on the Barrier for a few days resting up before her Kings Arms and Big Day Out appearances. Some questions were in order. Was this your first mussel festival or do you make a habit of finding such events when you are touring? Oh, I didn't go to the festival, I avoided it because the Barrier people told me it was a rip-off. They said, 'Don't go there, it's five bucks for a glass of wine'. But I did have insanely large mussels here in Auckland. I was shocked, I'd never had such large mussels. On the Barrier I went to the beach to do some diving, which was ill-fated, went to the hot springs, did some tramping. It was great. Great Barrier is known as a hippie hangout. Your take on hippies? I didn't see any but on the Barrier there must be real hippies. If you're going to live on the Barrier you'd have to be. But hippie for the sake of hippie fashion or hippie style I'm not into. A real hippie isn't a hippie, right? They are just a real into-it person. You say on the album that you don't care about anything (or words to that effect). We're sure you do. About what, though? People have these preconceived notions about what I'm doing and who I am, so I wanted to let them know I was more than that and didn't care what people thought - in the same way 25 years ago Joan Jett would have said she doesn't care about her reputation. It was updating that idea. Preconceptions? You're from Canada. We think of Canadians as being nice people like that lovely Celine Dion or even that amusing little skater Avril Lavigne. Why did you turn out so different? I don't find Avril Lavigne and Celine Dion so similar. I think I'm actually being pretty direct and saying what people say. I'm not buying the package you've got to be in. I'm trying to expand on that and usually you think of Canadians as sticking to their own package. We also have this New Zealand-type complex, too, like Australia equals the United States for us. On one of your songs the lyrics consist almost solely of the words "rock'n'roll". Does that about sum it up? Yeah, what else do you need for rock'n'roll than to say "rock'n'roll" a bunch of times? But you were once in a folk duo and taught young kids? We were called Mermaid Cafe, it's from a Joni Mitchell song, and I kinda just fell into that because my friend had a few songs and so did I. We played at a little club and they liked it so we played every week for a year and a half. That's where I realised I was a musician because I hadn't really performed before that. But then I realised I wasn't into that music. And teaching kids? I had this acoustic guitar but - like what I'm doing with Peaches - didn't buy into the way they thought of as creative learning. I thought kids weren't taught creative process and that's the most important thing you can give a child ... I was trying to do a more processed-based thing and not have them dress up and their parents clap for them or whatever. Primitive electro-punk seems your beat of choice. Three influential albums in that genre that those turned on by your music should check out? The reference points were more like the Stooges for the rock'n'roll thing, [Finland's] Pan Sonic who are like slow-motion heavy metal, and someone like Salt'N'Pepa. Or Missy Elliott. You have two shows here, how will they be different? The club show will be sweatier, sexier, more raw and insane. And the Big Day Out will be just another in a long line of whatever. Peaches are only the third most popular fruit in North America. Why didn't you name yourself Apple, or even Orange? It didn't have anything to do with the fruit, it had to do with the Nina Simone song Four Women and the way she says "peeeeacheees" at the end. It was the most passionate singing I'd ever heard. I wanted her to be singing to me - so I had to change my name. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 26 Jan 2004 21:20:36 -0500 (EST) From: Catherine McKay Subject: Re: Joni's birthday Hell, great find! --- hell@ihug.co.nz wrote: > I'm not sure if this has been posted already (I > don't think > so), but this is how Joni spent her 60th birthday. > Check > out: > > http://www.thebluevoodoo.com/index.html > > There are two photos (the first two) on the photo > page, and > a short item on the front page in the "News" > section.
