(Circle Game) . . i usually remember to sing this to them when they are on the swing set. Do they like Both Sides Now? If I had to pick an album of Joni's for kids, it would be Clouds. When I give a Joni album to a child, this is the one I usually give. I have a six year old who is very good at singing. He absolutely loves Both Sides Now and sings it with me which touches my heart in a very special way. He has perfect pitch, can hold a note, and really puts his heart into singing. Swinging... I love to swing and sing Joni songs!... and hang my head way back to see upside down so I can look at life from both sides now and then. Have to go to a park though where they have swings for adults. My swing song choice is In France They Kiss on Main Street. "I said take me to the swing, do you want to swing? I love to swing!" Love, Laura ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 16 May 2004 10:23:14 EDT From: Dflahm@aol.com Subject: Miles Davis I'm always aware of Miles' original context: he was a bebop trumpet player who didn't have the pyrotechnical ability of Dizzy Gillespie and found another way to be heard. Of interest are his early recordings with Charlie Parker, especially the session of 3/28/46 ( "Moose the Mooche," "Ornithology" and others.) To me (italics unintended but I dunno how to get rid of them) the center of his greatness is the quintet with John Coltrane, Red Garland Paul Chambers & Philly Joe Jones. The original titles for the sessions on the Prestige label were COOKIN', RELAXIN' and WORKIN' and STEAMIN'. Lahm, bein' old-school Also on Prestige, the fascinating BAGS' GROOVE session of-I think 12/24/54 with Milt Jackson, Thelonious Monk, Percy Heath and Kenny Clarke. ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 16 May 2004 10:35:29 EDT From: Harry83house@aol.com Subject: Loretta Lynn's new one... Hey, Bob! Sorry I've been out of the loop lately. Busy. I purchased Loretta's new CD and it is a wonder. Her voice sounds so strong and the production and arrangements by Jack White... phenomenal. I love the track "Little Red Shoes" where Loretta just tells a story while the band plays. It got me to thinking...Joni is such a fascinating story teller. She could put out a whole album of stories, though I doubt she'd do it. However, if she ever puts out her autobiography(ies), maybe she'll record one of those "books-on-tape"...as read by the author, like Katharine Hepburn did. Hope all is well, buddy.

Though she was probably referring to a present event (God-fearing USA peacekeeping soldiers raping young Japanese girls on Okinawa) this has unfortunately been the case throughout the ages. It's always happening somewhere, guys, the sponsors just have to figure out how much $$ they can make on it by showing the actual photographs tonight at 10! War is now a series of lawsuits, apologies, etc. Just 'cause George Butcher (#1 Christian Terrorist) says the war is over doesn't automatically mean that for the people we invaded. Anyone remember Osama?? Croatia? Rwanda? Guess those just aren't selling McDonald's Happy Meals like they were 4 or 5 years ago. Gotta keep the blood fresh.
