Angela NP (in my head): "...stay awake, don't go to sleep..." (what show is that from?) In a message dated 7/16/2006 1:14:29 A.M.

Have any of you seen those TV commercials that use OUR music to sell their wares? "All You Need is Love" in a credit card commercial, and "Magic Bus" for some car company? How about "Urge for Going" for that pharmaceutical they push for people with bladder control problems? Joni could sell them the rights and she could make a lotta money before she quits this crazy scene! Ha! Now every time I hafta faire pee pee I'm going to have this song playing in my head. Merci, mon amie! Yes indeed, we are always finding new meaning in Joni's lyrics. ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 16 Jul 2006 06:16:35 -0700 (PDT) From: J Kendel Johnson Subject: Re: Upcoming Nonesuch Joni Tribute Project??? Bob Muller wrote: Sources say a similar project devoted to Joni Mitchell is also in the works over at Nonesuch." _________________________________ I wrote to my friend, Austin-based singer-songwriter Sara Hickman in January, asking if she'd heard about the project, and this is was her reply: "I called Larry Klein just now and he isn't involved in the project (he did record a song with Sheryl Crow), but he didn't know the status of the album and told me to contact Bob Hurwitz at Nonesuch..." I love Sara's cover of "Chealsea Morning" on her 2002 album, Faithful Heart. BTW, check out Sara's new double album, Motherlode, at www.SaraHickman.com and read an excellent interview with lots of intriguing information about her inspiration and development of the double CD project at www.Puremusic.com. Guests on the album include guitar whiz Adrian Belew and fellow singer-songwriters Kelly Willis, Jimmy LaFave and Shawn Colvin.

Hi J -- Please tell Sara Hickman that I have been a fan of hers in Manila. An influential adult contemporary radio station used to play tracks from her album "Shortstop" a lot and that's where I first discovered her vocal artistry and her songwriting talent. I especially like "I Couldn't Help Myself", "Too Fast" and "Salvador". I also had her other albums. Love her "Simply" song.

This two-day event is held in the gorgeous mountain town of Idyllwild above Palm Springs CA and is situated on the campus of the Idyllwild Arts School under the pines. Any listers from L.A, San Diego or Riverside are not a long drive from here. You wanted to lose the smog anyway right? This show will bring a couple of firsts for us: the addition of Paul Carman on sax and flute and the debut of our most challenging Joni tune ever : A Chair in the Sky. Paul is a veteran L.A saxman and was part of the vaunted Frank Zappa horn section for four years. And our keyboardist Barnaby Finch toured with Tom Scott himself in the eighties as well as long stints with George Benson and Lee Ritenour. To say we have the qualified crew would be...well.....true. Looking ahead a bit, I'd like to give advance notice to all Jonilisters of our biggest show of the year on Sat Nov 4th, timed to coincide with Joni's 63rd birthday. The venue is a fantastic all-ages listening space (no blenders, talking or widescreen TVs) called Dizzy's in San Diego (dizzyssandiego.com). We will be bringing the full 6-piece band and playing well over two hours of solid Joni music, and not just the folkey material. Our show, which is largely chronological, now features For the Roses, Down to You (the whole orchestral enchilada), Harry's House, Hejira, Coyote, Dreamland, A Chair in the Sky, Cherokee Louise, Passion Play, Borderline, Night Ride Home and How do You Stop in addition to the expected hits and evergreens. This promises to be the Joni Mitchell event of the year, perhaps anywhere. We will be recording the whole deal to 24-track and may even have Joni's artwork projected above us as we play (thanks to Zooby). Please consider taking a winter junket to warm San Diego, make this a west coast Jonifest and come see the show. You can keep us honest on the lyrics!! Don't make it Last Chance Lost....

I found I had most of them but, I was particularly interested in Buffy Sainte-Marie's cover of Song To a Seagull. I'd heard mention of it on the Woman of Heart and Mind DVD when David Geffen commented that it was the first Joni song he'd heard but didn't realise it was hers. It's a lovely faithful cover from the same period.
