JC Russ, you crack me up. Don't let FTR hover too long. It's a gem. I'm not sure I'll close out the year with Joni at all. The girl just doesn't say partay! to me. It'll probably be more like Above & Beyond or some such get-your-booty-on-the-dancefloor type music. I will probably start off the new year with the divine Miss Mitchell though. I need her to ground me and bring me back down to earth. So glad you like River. Unlike you, I didn't take to it at first. It seemed a bit too abstract for me but, it sure has grown on me. Even Leonard Cohen's rap. There were a number of tracks that only came on special versions of the album through Amazon, etc. Let me know if you'd like those to fill out the experience. Mark in Sydney PS I hope you all have a prosperous 2009.

I had the pleasure of seeing him and his band when I was a college student and a subscriber to NC State's Jazz series. Saw some amazing shows back in those days and I recall this was a fine one. As for the Joni content, Larry Klein was playing bass in Hubbard's band in the late 70's, he transitioned from that gig to playing with Joni.
