Hi Jonilistas, Now, get this right, I was listening to TBOS on Monday night while I was cooking in the kitchen and the rest of my flatmates came in... so I was cooking away and one of them said,'My God, what is this music, it's so porn! It's like I'm watching Channel 5 late night softcore... I keep on expecting women with big hair to come in and start fondling each other for no good reason...' I had to smile... most of the evening's conversation went on like this as it does sound very 80's softporn... Ironically he only started his conversation during 'Sex Kills' Much Joni Jamie Zoob Are you kidding? I always play TBOS during my wild sex parties. But seriously, I have always found Joni's music to be very sensuous, though not usually in an erotic way. Speaking of TBOS, I am really enjoying listening to it this summer. It's a great compilation, really (Dreamland, on the other hand...). I recently packed up all my stuff and put nearly all my music in storage (while I'm temporarily living with my mother back in Ohio....but that's another story), and TBOS was one of a handful of CDs I was sure to bring.

BUT, is our view a little distorted just because we're JMDLers? We've read 20,000 of these articles, so of course we're sick of them. But normal people haven't read 20,000 Joni interviews. If they read just one, I bet a lot of them would think she's making a valid point. The commercial airwaves *are* full of junk, and there doesn't seem to be a lot of room for real artistry to slip in. Sometimes I wonder whether part of the problem is where Joni lives, in the heart of the "entertainment industry." Maybe she should move somewhere else, where poor old slobs who've never been famous are actually making good music.

A very valid point - I don't listen to commercial radio in NZ for precisely that reason (although they have raised the NZ content recently, which I do appreciate). And I must admit, my first reaction was to wonder how many times we're actually hearing the same few interviews rehashed and rewritten in a slightly different vein. And Joni does love to talk - I'd be surprised if she spent ALL her interview time bemoaning the state of the music industry and not talking about other things. But then controversy sells, doesn't it, so any journalist is going to try to make the most of any contentious issue. Oh well, I still love her - even if it does scare me sometimes, how much she's turning into my mother (but then she was a Mitchell once, so maybe there's a connection)! And I do have to chuckle at some of Joni's comments - some of them strike me as just the kind of thing Myrtle would (and did) say ;o)!

I believe that the CD single of "My Secret Place" (a 3" CD) which also includes "Number One" "Chinese Cafe/Unchained Melody" and "Good Friends" was also only released in Germany. But of course, the list I provided did not include CD singles, only American released 45's on vinyl. I'm pretty sure that there must be vinyl 45's that may have some differences that were only released in Europe and other places as well. I'll have to get going and see if I can compile a list of ALL of those too! For you fortunate ones attending Jonifest in France, do try to hit the record stores if you can find any, and see if you can dig up some gems we're missing! Oh, and please check out Laura Nyro for me too!! I would be very grateful!! Best to you!

I'm pretty sure that there must be vinyl 45's THANKS AGAIN, Gary. But, of course!!!--THAT never even entered my mind...and totally explains it (they were CD-only singles)! ;-) XXXOOO, Billy ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 22 Jul 2005 19:55:25 -0700 (PDT) From: Zachary Scot Johnson Subject: Shawn Colvin opening Hi everyone, I apologize if this isn't ENTIRELY on topic, though it is Joni-related. We were talking about Shawn Colvin, who was produced at one point by Larry Klein. Well, I found out tonight that I'll be opening for Shawn at her July 29th (one week from tonight, Friday) show at the Barrymore in Madison. http://www.barrymorelive.com/ Certainly will be bringing up Joni and had hoped to play something, but we'll see...Just wanted to mention that if anyone is in the area and feels like dropping by the show, Shawn Colvin never disappoints. And I hope I won't. :) My cover of 'A Case of You' is on my first cd, "Moment of Clarity", which will be sold at the show. The great Bob Muller also added it to one of the cover cd's. Anyways, I'm very excited to open for Shawn, truly one of my top two or three heroes--I even thanked her (and Joni!) in the liner notes of my cd, so imagine my thrill at getting to open for her! Anyone interested can check out my webpage at: http://www.geocities.com/zacharyscot/ Again, I apologize if this isn't ENTIRELY on topic. Hopefully I won't get bashed for this...

Hey, I have read tens of interviews and reviews that attempt to depict Joni's bitterness at the music industry and even (if not especially) other singer-songwriters (mostly women). However, we have to remember that the author of the article may be trying to convey certain messages and s/he may not even be close to capturing Joni's true sentiments. That notwithstanding, when Joni does come across bitter in these pieces, I hope to think it somehow masks a certain sweetness. I have read that she has vacillated between thinking Rickie Lee Jones had no talent and admiring her. What do I know but I somehow think she wants to find some kindred spirits in the business but at the same time desires to feel special. Chronologically, she did come first and both because of her place in time and her talent, she was an influential pioneer. It's sort of like she is incessantly regarded as this great influence but post 1970's has not received any commerical rewards (i.e., radio play), and has seemed almost irrelevant to many younger fans (not me though - I'm only 23). Who wouldn't be bitter? Joni has also has watched many artists she truly has influenced state that they are tired of being called "the next Joni Mitchell." While I do understand their gripes, I do feel for Joni all the same. I guess it's the fault of the sexist media that is forever trying to pit women against one another. Because when women start banding together and forming bonds of solidarity, the established male order is threatened. On that note...was Joni invited to Lilith Fair? I know she did not attend, but if she was invited, does anyone know what her response was? I seem to remember reading she thought it was homogenous. Take care, Sean "Where some have found their paradise Others just come to harm" - Joni Mitchell, "Amelia" (1976) "Sometimes I'm afraid of the dark I can't find the light in my heart I can see my hand pushing away Hard as I can" - Cyndi Lauper, "Fearless" (1996) "It took an hour, maybe a day But once I really listened, the noise Just went away" - Liz Phair, "Stratford-On-Guy" (1993) "On a clear day, I bet you can see the class struggle from here..." - - Katrin Cartlidge (Hannah) in Mike Leigh's "Career Girls" (1997) "We waltzed beneath God's point of view knowing no ending to our rendezvous we expressed such sweet vows: oh till death do us part oh till death do us part" -Patti Smith, "My Madrigal" (1996) "Take this Mute mouth Broken tongue. Now this Dark life Is shot through with light" - Suzanne Vega "Pilgrimage" (1990) "She could outrun the fastest slug" - Tori Amos, "Marianne" (1996) "All I know of you is in my memory All I ask is you Remember me." - Suzanne Vega "Rosemary" (1998) Tired of spam?
