Finally Joni aired on Tasikmalaya's sky for the very first time. It was on local radio : Past Way FM (quite popular in the city), about two hours ago (8 PM in Tasikmalaya = 8 AM in New York City = 1 PM in London = 11 PM in Sydney) Songs played (i provided the songs): 1. Help Me 2. Big Yellow Taxi, from Miles of Aisles 3. A Case of You 4. In France They Kiss On Main Street 5. Edith and The Kingpin I made my radio-DJ friend play those songs, with few introductions about Joni provided by me. (Actually I bribed her with a small cup of Haagen-Dazs) Rian NP. Feist  Now At Last (one of few songs that make me cry) NR. Raja Batak (Kings of Batak) by Sadar Sibarani, a history book of Batak tribe.

Does anyone know when the JMDL's 2007 album and song polls will CLOSE (already)? Oh, and approximately WHEN will 'SHINE'--and it's various songs--be added (hint, hint)? ;-) HAPPY NEW YEAR, everybuddy !!! XXXOOO, Hillbilly-Billy :-D NP: 'Poor Little Critter On the Road' (1985) by The Knitters ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 3 Jan 2008 09:34:09 -0800 (PST) From: Monika Bogdanowicz Subject: Re: SV: new joni interview in mojo Hello there. You make quite a few good points as well. Not everyone was a hippie back in the 60's. I don't know what exactly Joni was referring to when she made these comments about her generation but often Joni is tied in with the counterculture (whether or not she bought into it) and yes, that is what I was talking about. It could be she was talking about just her own side of things--the musicians who too failed to actually change much or something else all together. I personally volunteer to meet her in person to ask her to clarify all that was said (on behalf of the JMDL of course). :) But I still think that to change anything of the system you have to be on the inside (not the outside looking in) to do so. -Monika - --------------------------------- Looking for last minute shopping deals?

A while back I came across a great little site called Guitar Player TV @ http://guitarplayertv.com which features a large selection of free guitar tuition videos in a multitude of different styles. In addition to doing the website's introduction, Larry Carlton also has his own channel called 335 Blues - http://snipurl.com/335blues where he demonstrates how to build up a blues guitar arrangement. Even if you don't have time to watch all the videos on his channel don't miss "Stormy, 3: Soloing" where, as he says on the following section, he goes "to the zone" - oh so good!! Found an interesting little article from Performing Songwriter in the jmdl library where he's talking about the importance of thinking and playing like an arranger when doing sessions. "You have to be able to improvise arrangements on the spot to be a great accompanist. It's what you do with the phrases around the vocal that can make the whole thing sound more connected." As an example, he points to a song from one of his most memorable sessions, Joni Mitchell's Court and Spark. Carlton says, "I think there's a very good example of how to think like an arranger. When Joni sings, 'Help me, I think I'm falling,' I do a rake across the strings, and it makes her next phrase - 'in love again' - really cool because she has a chord to sit down on." Aslo found this great video of him playing with another of Joni's guitar sidemen, Robben Ford (who I saw with the LA Express and Joni at London's New Victoria Theatre on the Miles of Aisles tour back in the day), here playing a concert together in Tokyo - takes the soundman a while to sort out Larry's guitar sound but when he does it's ab fab! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jBS7BEPb1Jk Happy New Year to all Paul Castle NP False Hearted Lover Blues by Levon Helm - from 'Dirt Farmer' - would get my grammy vote if I had one! ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 3 Jan 2008 14:40:37 -0600 From: Michael Paz Subject: Best of 2007 Hello All Here is my best of 2007.

Although I did find Joni and Herbie on the cover of the Dec. issue of Jazz Times. Has anyone else found it?

I'm racing in to share a message I received from an old friend: " Just wanted to let you know that Joni will be one of the featured performers on WMNR, http://www.wmnr.org, tonight on the Dick Hegeman show starting at 9 PM." That's in about two minutes. I called them at the station to find out what exactly this is, but the lines weren't open. Maybe it's no great Joni shakes, but I felt it my duty to share. For me it's cool, because this station is in my old hometown. Where I first discovered Joni in 1968, and wrote essays on her in high school, and all the rest. So I am interested in hearing whatever goes on in this show. A bientot, et encore une fois, bonne annee! Love & Peace, Patti P. _________________________________________________________________ Get the power of Windows + Web with the new Windows Live. http://www.windowslive.com?ocid=TXT_TAGHM_Wave2_powerofwindows_122007 ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 3 Jan 2008 18:57:33 -0800 (PST) From: Monika Bogdanowicz Subject: YouSendIt with Joni content I have never been on the end of this site where I upload the music (or whatever you do) and give out a link for all to download. I was wondering if someone could perhaps do me a favor as I don't know how to do it and I have no music on my computer right now (since the deadly comp crash of '07). Could someone upload "Talk To Me" and "The Silky Veils Of Ardor" from DJRD on YouSendIt and send me the link? I'd like for my friend to hear those two songs as she's heard "Talk To Me" probably a dozen times in my car already (which she enjoyed). She's a Joni fan and I'd like to share. If anyone could be of some assistance, please email me offlist. Thank you and g'night, -Monika - --------------------------------- Looking for last minute shopping deals? Find them fast with Yahoo!
