This just off the newswire: New artists getting a latte of attention Starbucks is already brewing two new Hear Music CDs to be released early next year. First up will be a new disc from Brazilian pop/jazz star Sergio Mendes, who had a string of hits in the '70s and '80s, including Never Gonna Let You Go, and is now hoping to make a 21st-century comeback. Out in April will be the debut by 16-year-old singer Sonya Kitchell, who grew up in rural Massachusetts. Words Came Back to Me, due April 4, will be released jointly by Hear Music and Velour Records. It'll be a predominantly acoustic record, spotlighting Kitchell's lyrics and unadorned voice. The Los Angeles Times is already raving about her, calling her a "fascinating performer." Starbucks is banking on Kitchell big-time, shuttling her around the country to make appearances at their coffeehouses and landing her a Feb. 1 gig at Carnegie Hall, where she and other artists will pay tribute to the music of Joni Mitchell. - ----------- I've just been listening to Sonya on her website, and clearly she has big-time skills. She's worked extensively with Aaron Neville and Susan Tedeschi. She could be the next... Well, you know. But don't take my word for it, check it out yourself. She's only 16. Phenomenal. www.sonyakitchell.com - -Julius ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 30 Dec 2005 11:17:59 -0700 From: "Les Irvin" Subject: Looking for photographers and artists... Joniphiles - JoniMitchell.com will soon feature a new section dedicated to artists and photographers who've done Joni-related work. The purpose of this section is twofold: 1) To collect and build a database of Joni-based photos and art. 2) To promote your work by providing free exposure, and to provide a link to your own website and/or your internet-based sales vehicle. If you are interested in having your work displayed on JoniMitchell.com, please contact me for further details. The only requirement is that your work be, of course, Joni-related. Thanks!

Les - I'm an avid amateur photographer, and I'm interested. But I just want to ask, what constitutes Joni-related work in photography? Does this mean taking a photo of a desert highway and say it was inspired by "Amelia" or "Coyote" for example? Or is this limited to photos taken of Joni herself? - - jim ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 31 Dec 2005 00:57:08 +0100 From: Oddmund Kaarevik Subject: Painters and prairies As someone mentioned some time ago here on the list - Joni Mitchell and Neil Young share much common ground. What first come to my mind is that they both this year have released a record album with the word "Prairie" in the title: "*Songs of a Prairie Girl"* and "The Prairie wind." They both grew up along the prairie, and this seem to reoccur as important for them now when they have reached a certain age - and suffered and struggled through several diseases - Maybe they're just dreaming back to their childhood days - as Joni sings: I come from open prairie. Or maybe they are just 'fighting off growing old? I don't know. Maybe they have both seen and experiences the thin line between life and death - and that they both are, as all of us, getting closer to the latter. As Young sings "Bury me out on the prairie, where the buffalo used to roam. Where the Canada geese once filled the sky. And then I wont be far from home." I think someone mentioned this before - but driving home with my parents tonight - it reoccured to me that there must be a link between Youngs first track "The Painter" and Joni. So here I am gonna show my interpretations and thougts on the link - and of course pay my respect to the one on the list who mentioned it first - - Neil young: > The painter stood > Before her work > She looked around every where > She saw the pictures and she painted them > She picked the colors from the air Joni Mitchell: > I want to paint a picture > Botticelli style > Instead of Venus on a clam > I'd paint this flower child > "You are the air my flowers breathe" > He calls and the ladies turn around > On the first day of Spring > I'm looking at the only joy around > and > "If I were a painter" Picasso said > "I'd paint this girl from toe to head!" > Yvette in English saying > "Please have this > Little bit of instant bliss" > > Neil Young: Green to green Joni Mitchell: > Just a little green > Like the color when the spring is born > There'll be crocuses to bring to school tomorrow > Just a little green > Like the nights when the Northern lights perform Neil young: Red to red Joni Mitchell: And her blood-red fingernails You're in my blood like Holy-Wine Neil Young: Yellow to yellow Joni Mitchell: > Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning > And the first thing that I saw > Was the sun through yellow curtains > And a rainbow on the wall > Blue, red, green and gold to welcome you > Neil Young Black to black When the evening comes Blue to blue In the night Joni Mitchell: > > On the back of a cartoon coaster > In the blue TV screen light > I drew a map of Canada > Oh Canada > With your face sketched on it twice > And Once in a while > In a big blue moon > There comes a night like this - - - So for me, in my Joni-cracked up head - there is a great connection between these two - Marianne - maybe some of the greatest living artists - and the connection is latest shown in this very song "The Painter" Thanks for listenening and reading in love and dedication Oddmund Norway ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 30 Dec 2005 20:05:14 EST From: LCStanley7@aol.com Subject: joni tribute, pre-concert Hi Ya'll, Anybody in recovery from alcohol or drug addiction interested in a pre-concert get-together?
