Jerry ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 28 May 2004 12:50:08 -0500 From: "Music Is Special" Subject: Reuters/Billboard story on new Joni greatest hits release Joni Mitchell in 'Survival' Mode Thu May 27, 2:14 AM ET NEW YORK (Billboard) - Sixteen of Joni Mitchell (news)'s more issue-minded tracks have been rounded up for the compilation "The Beginning of Survival," due July 27 via Geffen Records. The songs are drawn from the Mitchell album "Dog Eat Dog," "Chalk Mark in a Rainstorm," "Night Ride Home," Turbulent Indigo" and "Taming the Tiger." Among the guests sprinkled throughout are Don Henley (news), James Taylor (news), Willie Nelson (news) and Michael McDonald (news). The album's self-described "commentaries on the world in which we live" find Mitchell addressing such as topics as greed and corruption ("No Apologies," "Dog Eat Dog" and "Passion Play (The Story of Jesus and Zachius ... The Little Tax Collector)," featuring actor Rod Steiger (news)), Western culture ("The Three Great Stimulants") and environmental responsibility ("Cool Water," "Lakota"). Also featured are "Slouching Toward Bethlehem" (adapted from a poem by W.B. Yeats), "The Beat of Black Wings," "The Reoccurring Dream," "Impossible Dreamer" and "The Windfall (Everything for Nothing)." Mitchell co-produced the album and contributes an essay as well as original artwork. The liner notes include a reproduction of an environmentally themed letter to the President of the United States, thought to have been penned by Susquamish Indian Chief Seattle in 1852. "The Beginning of Survival" is Geffen's second recent archival Mitchell release, following last September's four-disc boxed set "The Complete Geffen Recordings." The artist has not issued a new studio album since 2002's Nonesuch set "Travelogue," which she has said will be her last.

It was a collection of some of Australias best feamle singers with a very cool backing band singing their favourite Joni Mitchell songs. From the opening notes of Carey to the closing tones of For Free it was a very magical night. Singers were; Tania Bowra Rachel Gaudry Loiuse Perryman Robyn Dunn Sarah McGregor Karen Jacobsen Kristen Cornwell Songs included; Carey Blue Coyote Cherokee Louise Both Sides Now Woodstock Big Yellow Taxi The River Edith and the Kingpin For Free A Case of You Be Cool Chinese Cafe You Turn Me on I'm a Radio Amelia Solid Love Dry Cleaner from Des Moines Free Man in Paris Help Me Electricity Tiger Bones A very mixed collection of tunes each executed with a passion that only a fan would display. I was talking with Tania Bowra during a break and she was completely beside herself and having a total rage. I believe this show will be repeated or a similar show will be performed sometime inthe future.

Thanks for reposting it, Paul. I thought there was a DOG in that story. I guess it just wasn't Siquomb's dog, but rather Rick's. At least I got the Pinto right! Hope everyone has a lovely Memorial Day. God Bless all the vets and esp. the WWII ones at the long overdue Memorial dedication. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 29 May 2004 02:11:54 -0400 From: ljirvin@jmdl.com Subject: Today's Library Links: May 29 On May 29 the following articles were published: 1983: "My Top Twelve" - BBC 1 Radio (Interview - Audio Transcription) http://www.jmdl.com/articles/view.cfm?id=619 1999: "Joni Mitchell Orchestrates Standards Set" - Billboard (News Item) http://www.jmdl.com/articles/view.cfm?id=788 2000: "Diana Ross Ticket Sales In A Rut" - New York Post (News Item) http://www.jmdl.com/articles/view.cfm?id=516 2000: "Mitchell charts new ground" - Boston Herald (Review - Concert) http://www.jmdl.com/articles/view.cfm?id=527 ------------------------------ End of onlyJMDL Digest V2004 #149 ********************************* ------- Post messages to the list by clicking here: mailto:joni@smoe.org Unsubscribe by clicking here: mailto:onlyjoni-digest-request@smoe.org?body=unsubscribe ------- Siquomb, isn't she?
