As the Grand Poobah of Joni covers, I am thankful every time I hear of a new one, and I have had LOTS to be thankful for in 2006. Sometime soon I will celebrate BSN #500! In other BIG cover news, Big Yellow Taxi's latest Joni tribute is now available on I-tunes. The CD has been out for a while, and of course if you missed that news originally you can go hear samples and pick it up here: http://cdbaby.com/cd/bigyellowtaxi3 (Among the many attributes that make it a special CD, Henning & Christina have recorded (3) Joni tunes that she never released.) Anyway, if you were waiting for the CD to show up as a download, the wait is over and you can get the whole album (13 tracks) for $9.99 or your pick of the tracks for .99 each: http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?playListId=206095 243 Henning has been a busy fellow - besides working on a solo CD, he plays the guitar on "Big Yellow taxi" in a new film called "Cabbie" and on "Both sides,now" on an upcoming album from Penelope Smith. And you know...there may be more. He deserves our support, so go check it out.

Born September 17, 1939, in North Hollywood, California, Flint, whose name may not be household common, is as seminal a part of the world music scene as Alicia Keys, U2, The Beatles, or The Rolling Stones. Superstar folk-singer Joni Mitchell paid homage to Flint in a recent Mirabella Magazine interview by stating simply, "I started off copying a girl named Shelby Flint." Mitchell was referring to Flint's 1961 pop hit Angel On My Shoulder, an ethereally soft, lilting tune which displays the naove-yet-alluring idealities of a young woman who saves lucky pennies, four-leaf clovers, and who wants "a love that lingers and is stronger through and through." Renowned Jazz critic Leonard Feather describes Flint as a "technically flawless performer with a pure sound and a wide range." As testimony to this statement, a review of Flint's career-to-date shows that she has recorded albums in the folk, pop, disco, and jazz genres and has performed with musicians ranging from Chick Corea and Al Jarreau to jazz purists like Tim Weston and Gregg Karukas. When Flint began her recording career on the Valiant record label as a teenager, she had already mastered classical piano and acoustic guitar, having studied both since the age of six. Her lyrical balladry on the song House of the Rising Sun in 1963 preceded the rock hit version by the British group The Animals by one year. Flint's foray into the world of film yielded a voice-acting stint as "Laine" in the 1978 television special Rudolph and Frosty's Christmas In July, as well as theme songstress for 1973's The Borrowers, 1977's The Rescuers, and 1978's The Islander. Flint has also stretched the angel wings of her talent as a set dresser on the 1994 feature film Payback. In 1981, Flint's work in the areas of jazz, latin, and R & B music won her a NARAS "Most Valuable Player" nomination and opened the door to an on-going focus upon jazz. In 1982 Flint released an album entitled You've Been On Mind upon which she demonstrated her skills as a vocalist and instrumentalist, accompanying herself on her Fender-Rhodes guitar. Flint's most personal work has been in collaboration with Producer/Guitarist Tim Weston. Their 1992 Jazz album Providence features tracks such as The Lady Weeps a sweetly passionate cry for the end of racial tension in Los Angeles. Interestingly, Lady incorporates a paraphrasing of Flint's earliest work Angel On My Shoulder in the lines "Angels we have heard, angels we have known." The angels in this instance refer to victims of hate crimes. Currently Flint tours on the Jazz circuit, appearing in festivals in areas as diverse as Monterey, Maui, Florida, Catalina Island, Delaware, and Europe. Truly this musical icon has become the angel on contemporary music's shoulder. posted by JQUINN @ 12:35 PM 0 comments ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 24 Nov 2006 00:33:05 -0600 From: "Snatch N.

Thanksgiving is always on the fourth Thursday in November. It is an opportunity to be thankful for all which we have. People get together with their families and most people prepare a big meal, which generally includes some or all of the following: a big turkey, roasted in the oven stuffing mashed or sweet potatoes green bean casserole with French's fried onions on top pumpkin pie cranberry sauce It is one day a year when overeating is positively encouraged. ------------------------------ End of onlyJMDL Digest V2006 #337 ********************************* ------- Post messages to the list by clicking here: mailto:joni@smoe.org Unsubscribe by clicking here: mailto:onlyjoni-digest-request@smoe.org?body=unsubscribe ------- Siquomb, isn't she?
