Let me make this clear for everyone. I do not own a car but I said I would be willing to hire one, and drive it, if we had enough people sharing the price of the hire, thus making the price reasonable for all, and more convenient than the train with all that luggage. I would probably go ahead if we had 3 people but if we get 4 or 5 (or more) maybe we would need a bigger model. At the moment the only definite passengers are myself and Emiliano. Bob Muller seems a definite maybe and if he cares to confirm his interest then he will be upgraded to definitively definite (window or aisle seat?). So, I guess we have room for two more people in a normal car or 3 if we need a 'monovolumen' (what are these called in English ?). Anyone else care to express an interest?

Like yours, Mike, the HDCD does not have the HDCD logo on the disc itself, only on the back of the cardboard insert in the lower left hand corner beside the Reprise logo. The number you give below is the same on both copies. There are some different numbers etched on the cd itself if you look at the playable side in the margin between the playing surface and the bit of the label that shows through in the center. They are very tiny numbers and I had to use a magnifier to read some of them. The chief difference is in one number. The non-HDCD copy has the number 1 2038-2 SRC**08. On the HDCD copy this number reads 1 2038-2 RE-1 09 There is also a Y6053 on the HDCD copy. As far as I can decipher, this means that Joni travelled to Tibet in 1972 while she supposedly was up on the coast of BC. She met the Dalai Llama and they had a torrid affair. Joni went back to BC and 9 months later a child was born. If you take a vinyl copy of For the Roses and play 'Let the Wind Carry Me' backwards, you will learn that the child was spirited away to Pittsburgh. At the proper moment, this child will come forward. But the child is not the successor to the Dalai Llama and it is prophesied in the de-coded liner notes to THOSL that this offspring will journey to Boston and name Bob Murphy as the true successor to the Dalai Llama. An age of peace, prosperity and a reverence of all things blue will begin and last for 104 years when the wise and aged Smurfy Llama will make a hejira from Boston to Florida to escape an unexpected attack from the city of New York. The Yankees will be defeated, however and Dalai Smurf's sacred Red Sox will be saved and preserved. The superannuated but ever faithful Jimmy Stewart and Jerry Notaro will aid Smurf in his time of need and will be named to the order of High Mitchellamas along with our own Lamadoo, Bob Muller, Ashara, Mags, Patty, Julius, Kakki, Paz, Catherine, Colin, Les and many other worthy JMDLers. There will be song and celebration, we will be half a billion strong and the bombers will turn into butterflies above our harmonious musical world nation.

Whether she's singing jazz, country, blues, R&B or rock she gives it her all. This new album with a bend toward the blues may be her very best. It really all comes together on this one. Her voice has never sounded better and she's chosen some fantastic songs to wrap her beautiful voice around. The legendary James Burton lays down some amazing licks that prove why Elvis, Rick Nelson and Gram Parsons made him thier central guitarist on thier best recordings. If you like your female singers tough but tended she's your gal. She can bring a tear to your eye one moment and in the next spring for a round for the house.

It was unbelievable - just awesome, considering I thought it would be hokey. Anyway, we had 10 row aisle seats on the floor, and I am not kidding, the Queen of frigging England was 11 seats away from me. Anyway, the only reason I went was for Joni. Well, everyone got like 5 mins, and then right at the end, all the people who performed did a this medley of Joni songs. They started with BYT, then ACOY, and Help Me, and.... shit, I can't remember... Twisted, Woodstock, and then EVERYONE gets back on the stage and they do Both Sides Now and then Circle Game, and the audience starts singing Circle Game, and some of Joni's art is on the screens in the background. Then she somehow sneaks on the stage and everyone freaks out and stands up, but then the whole moment is sorta killed, because the frigging Queen and her posse come on the stage too and sh akes Joni's hand first, and then works down the line, while this kids choir sings BYT, and Joni just sorta stood there on the side and did that funny finger flicking thing she does. And that was basically it. So, you know how it is when you see Joni - you get all freaky and choked up and whatever, and it was worth it to see her just for that short time. But at the same time, I am kind of pissed off. I mean, these people would have done anything to honour her, and she doesn't speak, doesn't do sweet bugger all, and I mean, we are her hometown crowd. She's never done anything there except for the Mendel thing. So it was great to even get a glimpse of her but at the same time, I am sort of let down and pissy, because she wss the frigging star of the thing and didn't even let herself be seen, and when the hell will I ever see her again? Ah well... to top it off, there is a shot of me in the crowd (watching it right now - it was televised) where it looks like I am picking my nose... lovely.
