So moving sequentially, here is Volume 8, remastered to the best of my ability and chock full of some rare unreleased live recordings by names you'll recognize as well as a couple of REAL oddballs. And since most all of them come from the collection of Wally Breese's collection, there's a certain sentimentality to them as well. The link: http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?action=download&ufid=F96CBC4811044FFD The tracks: 1. Bobby Kimball - Woodstock 2. Trish Colter/Paul Read - A Case Of You 3. Lou Barlow - Blonde In The Bleachers 4. Gary Zack - Winter Lady 5. Sara Craig - This Flight Tonight (Live '93) 6. Holly Cole - River (Live '96) 7. Marianne Faithful - Amelia (Live '83) 8. James Taylor - For Free (Live '70) 9. James Taylor - Woodstock (Live '97) 10. Dion - Both Sides Now 11. The Neighborhood - Big Yellow Taxi 12. Indigo Girls - River 13. Sisterboy - A Strange Boy 14. Anne Haigis - Harry's House/Centerpiece 15. Pinhead Gunpowder - Big Yellow Taxi 16. Sergio Mendes - Chelsea Morning 17. The Athenians - Night In The City 18. Annika Fehling - Twisted (Swedish) 19.

I imagine jonimitchell.com could be the *portal* for sales, if the server can handle the traffic. That would truly be something. There are many models now for independent distribution of major releases -- Aimee Mann's record company and Dave Matthews' record company are good examples-- so la Mitchell should have no trouble escaping the clutches of the majors, if she has no legal obligations to any of them. It would be something to see, yes?

The heavy cocaine use explains why the tunes have so many verses! Our friend, singer Coral Thuet in Dan Diego, just sent us this Joni story I thought I'd pass along. Backstory: 29 Palms Inn is a funky inn out in the desert north east of Palm Springs CA, the kind of place you could go and not be mobbed.... "Did you hear about our brush with Joni Mitchell? We were at 29 Palms doing a little gig with Pass the Drum and Joni Mitchell was one of 6 people by the pool listening to the band. It was really amazing! I'll never forget how cool and nice she was. She was there with her daughter and a man. We were pretty freaked out... Nobody had the guts to talk to her except me. I talked to her just a little bit but it was really cool. I later slept in the same bed she did! I was hoping something would rub off on me. That's my Joni Mitchell story.> Dave ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 12 Oct 2006 07:52:54 -0700 (PDT) From: Bryan Subject: Re: Joni's writing again! That's great, but the lyrics of that anti-war song published in the Canadian article are...well, not exactly among her best. We'll see how it turns out.

Everyone doing what everyone else is doing, wearing the same clothes partying in the same places etc. Yes, I am sure she sings "sheep" -- intending to describe white caps that would form at the tops of waves in the sea when the wind is "in from Africa". I think it's just a painterly image, setting the scene of loneliness and exile from which she speaks to "Carey". Although Joni uses "sheep" to speak of mindless follower types in her later work, I rather dought that meaning here, as none of the rest of the song -- or much of the rest of the Blue album -- approaches that sort of social commentary.

What a fantastic player. Very nice cat too. He asked what I was doing later and I told him going home to sleep cause I am leaving in the am to NYC. Ended up going to HOB to see Steve Winwood and just got home to pack and catch a few winks. Tons of people hanging out in the Foundation Room at HOB left me geeting hoe way to late but as I have said before...when I'm.... Roland Guerin also a bass player was fantastic and I got a great recording. Hung out with Coco Robicheaux who played the Ogden over the weekend with me an is the studio recording with John a producer who recorded the Blind Boys of Alabama (the record with Amazing Grace mixed with House of the Rising Sun). Could NOT get away from him and a ton of other people who obviously have a better hang than I. Anyways off to the land of Billy Joel, Twisted Sister, Mountain, Cindy Lauper, Gershwin (not attending due to a prior engagement) and a plethora of Long Island Artists. Should be a gas. Love Paz P.S Asked Kyle about Joni and Larry but he had no real news to share (must have been all the babes waiting to talk to him) BTW Roland Guerin played Pazfest with the amazing David Lahm and use to be in a band with Brian Blade who is recording with a certain someone (I'll be damned if I can remember her name!)
