I saw her last year when she came to the Beacon, and was amazed at how exactly the same her voice sounds. She sang mostly the Nelson Riddle stuff, which I love, but I was disappointed she didn't sing any of the songs I used to love back in high school when I listened to her over and over again (Like the entire Hasten Downt the Wind album) ... Or any of her Neil Young covers. (Hee.) She is still an amazing singer, and her voice is in fine form. I also saw Linda recently, she came out and sang one song with Emmylou Harris at Neil Young's Bridge School Benefit in San Francisco last October. She sounded beautiful. : ) Speaking of Neil ... I saw that someone was down in Austin at SXSW, um .. Julius? Hope I got that right. Anyway, there are rumors flying around that Neil actually played a little at "The Drink" at like 1 am on Saturday night ... Did you hear anything about that? Or see it perchance? Wondering about that ... There are rumors flying, but can't seem to confirm them. On a whole other topic .. Movies ... I haven't seen "Walk the Line" yet but am eager to ... I have heard such mixed reviews from friends and see that the same is true on this list. It seems that if you know Johnny's music very, very well, you don't like the movie; if not, you love it. That would be true for all of us, probably, with Joni, or other musical heroes. You know? It's hard to see "someone else" singing their songs. Regarding 'would there ever be a movie about Joni's life,' I am wondering if anyone here knows about this book that just came out ... It is all about the Laurel Canyon years, what it was like to be there with all these famous musicians living next door to one another (including Joni) ... Maybe someone will make a book of the movie? I think it would be incredible to have a documentary kind of music with all the greats from that period, a then and now kind of thing, clips of back then, and then close up head shots of the artist today talking about that time and what it was like ...

Hi Karen, funny you should mention that - I was thinking a couple times since this thread has been going on, that if a movie were made about Joni or with Joni (or a Joniesque character) as a central part of it, that focusing on the Laurel Canyon "years" and area and culture would be really fascinating. (for me anyway) and could provide for some really nice visuals. I vote for Cameron Crowe to make it. Which book exactly are you referring to? Do you know a title? Sounds way interesting, thanks! Em http://www.eventsounds.com/wav/imsorry.wav ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 24 Mar 2006 09:25:57 -0500 From: karen Subject: New Book About Laurel Canyon Artists Hi Em, The book comees out May 6, I guess. It is called: Laurel Canyon : The Inside Story of Rock-and-Roll's Legendary Neighborhood by Michael Walker From Publishers Weekly Beginning in the mid-1960s, a string of successful rock bands emerged out of Laurel Canyon, a neighborhood of Los Angeles tucked away in the hills north of Sunset Boulevard. From the success of bands like the Byrds and the Mamas and the Papas, and singer-songwriters like Joni Mitchell and Jimmy Webb, Walker proposes Laurel Canyon as rock's answer to Jazz Age Paris. It's a plausible concept, but one he stumbles to elaborate past the length of a magazine feature. The journalist, who lives in Laurel Canyon, delivers strong material on some of the musicians he cites, particularly in early chapters about Crosby, Stills & Nash and Frank Zappa, but offers little about other equally significant acts. Instead, he pads the story with lengthy sections on groupies and the music scene in other parts of the city, the Altamont concert (which was hundreds of miles away) and a digression on the history of cocaine. Furthermore, his enthusiasm for the Laurel Canyon legend leads to shaky critical pronouncements. If "the folk stars of the early 1960s were the first rock stars," for example, then what was Elvis? 8 pages of b&w photos. "Laurel Canyon is hilarious and true and bittersweet. Michael Walker catches the mood in the air, and gets it right... the interviews are wonderful... it's a beautifully-written document of that time and place when the personalities were as big as those stony dreams that fueled some of the greatest masterpieces in rock." --Cameron Crowe "Laurel Canyon captures all the magic and lyricism of an almost mythological geographical spot in the history of pop music. The book lovingly limns the story of a more melodious time in rock and roll where the great talents of the 60s and 70s cloistered together in a sort of enchanted valley populated by an all-star cast of characters, including Joni Mitchell, Jim Morrison, Mama Cass and Brian Wilson." - --Stephen Gaines, author of Philistines at the Hedgerow "In Laurel Canyon, rock and roll history is urban history, California history, American history, global history through the songs and scandals coming from a canyon on the coast of dreams running through the labyrinthine center of our times." --Kevin Starr, Professor of History, University of Southern California and author of Coast of Dreams: California on the Edge Sounds good, I want to read it.

I was always fascinated by the 'Early Years Joni' as autobiography... that might be interesting... but also cutting to the 'Post Blue' depression up to Court and Spark, which would please the crowds no end and go into depth of what she was really like during that period, but also continuing into the Hejira/Mingus era when it got really experimental and her life got a lot more focused. Probably it would start out with Joni waving at the train driver from her picture window..going off to Calgary to study painting but then cutting though to the DJRD period where we can see that 'the adoption' wasn't an overriding issue but there are little dreams of that period throughout... I'd like the central aspect being the creativity (but this is probably not interesting to Genreal Public, but who cares they'd be more interested in the more National Enquirer' aspect of her life, but the creativity should be a theme that should thread throughout the film) then a festival in the late 60's... a brief meeting with a young couple by the fence, they introduce their daughter... a host of feelings flood Joni and obssess her for a the 2nd half of the film... You get the feeling that this is a non-linear film, pulling in emotions and stories from various parts of Joni's life... Anyway... nearly time to go home...

It was I that went to SXSW and attended Neil's keynote interview there. Pretty exciting stuff for the throng of music biz attendees. Plus, Austin just loves Neil...and now Norah Jones and Beth Orton. This I gathered from the reverence for them on radio down there, and the love shown them at their performances at SXSW. They dig Cyrille Neville now, too, making him musician of the year after he'd lived there only a few months...after he was displaced from New Orleans. But I digress. You asked about Neil and whether he performed in Austin while there for SXSW? That's a funny story from my perspective. The short answer is: no. Neil didn't perform to the best of my knowledge. But the rumor mill was in overdrive and everyone seemed certain that Neil would perform somewhere over the 4 days of the music conference. It was just a question of when/where to most. I was one of the believers that Neil would play and I dreamed up some quite far-fetched scenarios of when/where he might appear...as I didn't want to miss out. My theories were: 1) After attending the "Heart of Gold" screening on Thurs. at the conference, I felt that Neil would perform that night in a stealth gig of some kind. 2). My best guess was that Neil would join Marty Stuart's band, formerly of Buffalo Springfield, at Antone's for his 11 p.m. set for a big, secret reunion type thing. That didn't happen. I got a bit more country music than I had wanted in the deal, but had stuck it out hoping for Neil. I even went so far as to ask Mr. Antone himself whether Neil would appear. He laughed and said "I had heard that, too. But I can't confirm or deny." 3) I was undeterred. I figured in my wishfulness that Neil would most certainly now jump on stage to join the Hank III band, which is fronted by Hank Williams's grandson. I had seen in "Heart of Gold" how Neil had talked about having bought the original Hank's guitar and how he cherished it, but how one couldn't own such a guitar, but could just take care of it for a while. Well, I had convinced myself, and was laying bets, that Neil would join Hank III and present him with the gift of his granddaddy's old guitar. Hah! I'm an idiot, as it turns out. I wouldn't trust that kid and his punk/country band with a rusty old washboard, much less a priceless historic roots music relic. Needless to say: No Neil. No way. Hank III sucked, in my opinion. Sigh. 4.) Failing all that, the conventional wisdom was that Neil Would play a one hour set after Lyle Lovett's 10 p.m. set and before Chrissie Hynde (my new friend, details later...) and the Pretenders at 1 a.m. on Saturday night. These were the last performances of SXSW at Stubb's outdoors. I went and had every intention of hanging, but I hit "the wall" and almost fell asleep on my barbecue plate and beer. I had reached my limit and couldn't handle a single additional note of music from anyone, anywhere...plus it looked like rain. I bailed in an act of self-preservation. I had a 6 am flight out of San Antonio the next morning. I heard later that Chrissie rocked the place in a spiffy white suit and Lyle's set was good, but would've been better in a more intimate setting. No Neil though. None. So, I don't think he ever played, which is not so surprising to me, given that he was traveling with wife Pegi, Jonathan Demme and Elliot Roberts (Rabinowitz). I don't think Neil stays up that late anymore anyway, on account of his health, but I don't know... Thanks for asking, Karen. I should mention that Joni was very much on everyone's mind at SXSW. When Judy Collins and Chrissie Hynde were interview, so many of their questions were based on their associations with Joan. They even dredged up the old Fez debacle with Carly Simon in NY all those years ago. A nd poor sweet Judy Blue Eyes...all they seemed to want to know from her is whether she's friend's with Joan. The interviewer even mentioned that one of the favorite photographs he owns is a shot of Judy and Joni in Joni's treehouse at her Laurel Canyon home...circa 1968. Judy even recalled hearing a recording of herself that she had forgotten she ever did: "That Song About the Midway" at the Troubadour in Los Angeles in 1969. Anyone have that, by chance? - -Julius "Wanting to meet an artist because you like her songwriting is a bit like wanting to meet a duck because you like foie gras..." -Judy Collins Karen writes: > Speaking of Neil ...

Wow, thanks for the details Julius. I cannot even begin to tell you how many times I have done exactly what you did in fruitless search of Neil and the stealth gig! In many cities the world over ... Sigh. I had heard the Antone9s rumor, and had sent a lot of friends that way (from my computer, hee) .. But no go, as you know firsthand. However, a very good friend of mine has a very good friend in Austin who SWEARS Neil played a short set at 3The Drink2 after 1 am on Saturday. But no one else (who I know, anyway) knows anything about it. I suppose I could call The Drink and ask. Neil does indeed stay up that late, by the way, and he is The Master of the Stealth Gig. Very soon after his brain surgery, he jumped up on stage at 3The Joint2 in LA very late one night and joined a band there (whose name escapes me at the moment) and played a 20 minute version of Down By The River with the band, who were all freaking out evidently, having never met Neil before. And in Nashville this past August, he played at a bar after 1 am, just getting on stage and grabbing a guitar. (I had flown out of Nashville only hours before ... Waaaaaaaah!) ... He loves the stealth gig. Even if it9s late. It9s always late. Hee. : ) Well thanks for the update about SXSW, Julius, I was so close to going myself since Neil was the keynote speaker with Demme, but the pass prices were very steep. But if I ~had~ gone, I certainly would have been right there with you hot on the trail of the potential stealth Neil gig .... : ) Loveandaffectionkaren Oh and p.s. You said it was not surprising he didn9t play given that he was travelling with Pegi and Elliott. No, he travels with them everywhere. Every tour, every city, every gig.
