I love it so much, I don't even have a favorite song. They're all great! If you haven't ordered it yet, you're not a true Joni Mitchell fan. Kudos to Robin and Dave and the rest of the Mutts. I think it's worthy of a Grammy! I can finally say that I'm on a CD. I know I can make out my applause in the background. :-) Jimmy ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 7 Apr 2010 14:26:48 -0400 From: Bob.Muller@Fluor.com Subject: Re: 'Safaris To The Heart The Songs of Joni Mitchell' That's pretty much my take on it too, Jimmy. Although I do have to say that "Dreamland" gives me chills and makes the hairs stand up and all that. I'd be REAL surprised if it doesn't end up on my top 10 for the year. Dave, will the CD be available through CDBaby or Amazon or any other outlets?

Thanks everyone for the positive responses! Yes, Bob the CD will be available on CD Baby, Amazon, iTunes and all the rest in due course. We decided to do the initial marketing directly however. We have hundreds of CDs to sell before the download thing starts. When you do an album of Joni covers there's a pretty hefty licensing fee paid upfront (that goes to Joni which is great) but that is ONLY good for the physical CDs manufactured. As soon as we go to downloads we have to pay it all again as that is a different license. So, for the time being, we want to sell actual discs to pay back the loan we took out to make them. As a reminder, we have an arrangement with Les to cut JM.com in for 25% of the sale towards his site maintenance costs, so by buying the CD you support Joni, Les' amazing website and help the Mutts pay back their loan. Simply mention "JoniMitchell.com" in your Paypal transaction (there is a a notes/memo box for this) or on your mailed check. We are ALSO providing the link to download the three out takes that had to be omitted from the CD as it was becoming too long: new arrangements of River and Blue plus a dead-on Judgement of the Moon & Stars. So, with those, it's pretty much a double album (76 mins). Please support Mitchell, Mutts & Irvin (not the law firm) by buying some plastic discs for a while. Your Mutts Need You! cheers all, Dave On Apr 7, 2010, at 11:26 AM, Bob.Muller@Fluor.com wrote: > since I > got it.

April 16-25 hi richard and all! i know i know i still owe a report from the ballet and a shout out to dave and robin! and i know damned well there's more.. but right now i'm wondering - who's going to john's show? this guy is such an artist. i want to go but would love to be there the same night as some listers. the 18th is out for me. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sTaZs1kzQb0&feature=related keep me posted lesli ________________________________ From: owner-joni@smoe.org on behalf of Richard Goldman Sent: Tue 3/30/2010 9:10 PM To: JMDL Subject: NJC: Paved Paradise: The Art of Joni Mitchell: John Kelly in L.A. April 16-25 at the LGBT Center's Renberg Theatre *PAVED PARADISE: The Art of JONI MITCHELL Created & performed by JOHN KELLY Directed by Kevin Malony Musical Director: Zecca Esquibel* * **[image: John Kelly as Joni Mitchell]* Photo: Austin Young John Kelly is an Obie Award-winning actor, dancer and performance artist. He is also Joni Mitchell. Ok, not exactly, but so close that Joni herself is a fan! Kelly's theatrical homage to the music legend has thrilled audiences and critics across the nation, and now he brings*Paved Paradise* to the Renberg! The concept is simple: Joni Mitchell in concert, with Kelly on vocals, guitar and dulcimer, backed by piano and bass. Featuring songs from every stage of Joni's career, the "book" consists entirely of her own words. The original arrangements are intact, and Kelly's original-key recreation of her vocals is uncanny.

Magnificent!" ~*NY Times* ------------------------------ End of onlyJMDL Digest V2010 #95 ******************************** ------- Post messages to the list by clicking here: mailto:joni@smoe.org Unsubscribe by clicking here: mailto:onlyjoni-digest-request@smoe.org?body=unsubscribe
