Joni laid bare her heart in a series of intimate songs about love, betrayal and emotional insecurity. It could have been hell (think James Taylor) but for the penetrating brilliance of the songwriting. Raw, spare and sophisticated, it remains the template for a certain kind of baroque female angst. Without this ... no Tori Amos or Fiona Apple - and Elvis Costello and Prince have cited her as a prime influence. Suze n.p. Wilco, 'Bull Black Nova' (The Album) p.s., interesting information on the MOA album cover.

Depends on the venue, I think -- and does the price include travel costs? 'Cause I've flown from San Antonio to New Orleans to see her, and from San Antonio to NYC and then rented a car to drive to Yasgur's Farm to see her ... does the cost of "getting there" count? : ) Lori Santa Rosa, CA ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 24 Jul 2009 10:13:22 -0700 From: Dave Blackburn Subject: JoniFest Unfortunately our esteemed Les Irvin has had to withdraw from SoCal JoniFest, thus leaving one vacancy.

From Hank Snow To The Band by Jason Schneider here's a description from amazon.com PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Providing the first comprehensive history of Canadas songwriting legacy, this guide traces a distinctly Canadian musical identity from the 1930s to the end of the 1970s. The discussion shows how Canadian musicians have always struggled to create work that reflects their own environment while simultaneously connecting with mass audiences in other countries, particularly the United States. While nearly all songwriters who successfully crossed this divide did so by immersing themselves in the American and British forms of blues, folk, country, and rock 'n' roll, this guide reveals that Canadian sensibilities were never far beneath the surface. Canadian innovators featured include The Band, Ian & Sylvia, Hank Snow, Gordon Lightfoot, Leonard Cohen, and superstars Neil Young and JONI MITCHELL. Lively anecdotes and interviews round out the history, but the emphasis is always on the essential musichow and where it originated and its impact on the artists' subsequent work and the wider musical world. you can download the Joni chapter "Urge For Going" via YouSendIt at the following URL: andmoreagain, - - - - - - - - - - simon http://jonimitchell.com/chronology/complete.cfm http://jonimitchell.com/music/miscrecordings.cfm http://jonimitchell.com/music/songsaboutjoni.cfm http://jonimitchell.com/music/inspiredbyjoni_songs.cfm http://jonimitchell.com/music/inspiredbyjoni_albums.cfm "When humans take the strength of their belief and ease it across the thin line to absolute knowledge, then arrogance can lead to all kinds of things being done in the name of God." ------------------------------ End of onlyJMDL Digest V2009 #198 ********************************* ------- Post messages to the list by clicking here: mailto:joni@smoe.org Unsubscribe by clicking here: mailto:onlyjoni-digest-request@smoe.org?body=unsubscribe
