It was a highlight of our collective lives and about 10 of us were invited to meet her after the taping the first night. It was so magical. There were tons of her paintings hanging on every wall inside and outside the stage area. That alone blew me away. It is diificult for me to objectively assess the DVD having been there live -I think any of us who were there would be biased. But why decide between two or three DVDs? Get them all! ;-) My top 5 Jonis to take away: For The Roses Song to a Seagull Blue Don Juan's Reckless Daughter Travelogue Kakki Rosie wrote: I love PWWAM, just knowing that the late Wally Breeze(creator of the Joni Mitchell.com site), Jim Johansen(who can be seen sitting behind Joni) as well as many of the other JMDLers were invited to fill in the audience. If I am not mistaken, Kakki and Leslie Mixon were there, am I right Kakki? Oh boy, I wish I had my computer back then. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 16 Apr 2007 15:37:40 +0000 From: "c Karma" Subject: re: Song Intros I think the guitar work, piano and orchestral deserve separate mentions. My favs (today): Guitar: Intro/Cotton Avenue, For The Roses, Turbulent Indigo, Hejira, Refuge of the Roads Piano: Rainy Night House, Let The Wind Carry Me, Two Grey Rooms, Judgement of the Moon and Stars (Ludwig's Tune), Blue, Court and Spark. The orchestral ones may not be entirely Joni, but my favorite is the orchestral version of "Love" from Travelogue. It is simply gorgeous. "Cherokee Louise" and "Woodstock" from the same record follow closely. "Refuge of the Roads" translated brilliantlly to harp and strings.

Some mean more then others and as C&S is now going to remind me of the drive up to Full Moon with Patrick and Mike P., that in itself will bring new meaning to that body of work. And so thus not being a critic and glad not to be one here is my top 5. 1) Night Ride Home - it was a powerful time in my life and in my marriage and the only album my ex wife would listen to. 2) Hissing - summers crusing up PCH in my VW squareback with album competing for space with Katy Lied, Late for the Sky & Stampede. 3) Heija - Actually driving across the burning desert and seeing the vapor trails of jets around Edwards AFB. Never sounded better then after three days at altitude and driving down from the mountians. 4) C & S - This was a ganja album.........I forgot what I was going to say. 5) Turbulent Indigo - I was fed up with religous people and Magdalene Laundries just fueled my anger but gave me some core values to live by.....bringing light into a room instead of leeching it out. Oh if the house starts sinking, hell I'd get the cat. - ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mark-Leon Thorne" To: "JMDL" Sent: Sunday, April 15, 2007 7:56 AM Subject: My Top 5 > Hadn't really thought about this.
