This is very cool. It would go very well with Chaka's, Hejira. It seems odd to have a live track on a tribute album though. The one that really interests me is Duncan Sheik's, Court and Spark. Was that in one of your compilations? Did I miss it?

I just took a look on iTunes and he has quite a catalogue. I only knew Duncan Sheik from his eerie cover of Blasphemous Rumours. I think I will get his Anthology album. The sample of C&S sounds great. Mark in Sydney On 14/05/2010, at 10:32 PM, Bob.Muller@Fluor.com wrote: > > Was that in one of your compilations?

I think Reprise just didn't think it would be profitable and they shelved it. I'd love to know the dirt. I even went back on archived pages of Wally's old JM.com to re-read the news updates about it but couldn't find anything.

Well, I'm settling into Denver and back into my old routine of reading the list in the morning with my coffee. Yay! RE: american idol: You guys are so funny. I haven't watched it since the first (Kelly Clarkson) season, but I feel like I've watched this season vicariously. More importantly, I LOVE that *Jerry* dubbed himself "the gay cougar." Not only did it make me laugh, it made me think about the fact that men who chase young tail of any persuasion are never called cougars. Obviously, I've thought a lot about the old double standard before, but never thought about it in relation to that noxious "cougar" term. *Jimmy:* So You Think You Can Dance! We have even more in common! You probably already know that this season's gonna be the newbies vs. the faves from previous seasons. It should be spectacular. I don't think I mentioned that I listened to Hejira for the first time on my drive from LA to Denver. I'd been saving it because it seemed appropriate for my own Hejira. It was perfect. I cried buckets during those 1000 + miles. Not from hurt, exactly, but from upheaval and confusion and anxiety. What would we do without Joni's music to help us through things? And really, music in general? We wouldn't be the same species, to be sure. And, as an aside, isn't it odd when a person seems to have no need for music? My mother is that way. The only CDs she owns are a handful of soundtracks I bought her from movies we'd seen together and liked. She never listens to music! She didn't even know who Joni was when I started talking about her, and the lady is 64 years old. She also didn't know (until I told her about them) The Doors, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin... of course she knew the Beatles, but she stopped liking their music "when it got weird" i.e. after "I Wanna Hold Your Hand." I love her more than anything, but sometimes I think, "where did I come from?" I believe in reincarnation, so I guess my question should be "when did I come from?" So good to be back amongst my peeps. Loving hooking up with several of you on Facebook. If you've sent an invite and I've not responded, please send me a note! I get a lot of random invites, so if I'm not sure who someone is, I just ignore it.

Hejira is an amazing record, so much depth and substance. It has been a comfort to me for 34 years.

I don't even get that. My mother, if she were alive today, would be 93 and I'm not sure if that makes any difference or not. The fact that your mother is the same age as Joni, and lived through that whole era and didn't listen to music strikes me as weirder though. I don't see how it could be possible to live through the 60s and 70s and NOT listen to music. My daughter (who is 23) knows a guy who was interested in her as a girlfriend, but he wasn't interested in music or art. My daughter is an artist and she loves music. She just didn't get that guy at all (which explains why she wouldn't be interested in him as a boyfriend.) Without art and music, what the heck is there? ________________________________ From: Leah Welborn To: joni@smoe.org; Les Irvin ; Jimmy Stewart Sent: Fri, May 14, 2010 1:28:12 PM Subject: Greetings from Denver, meandering thoughts, etc. And, as an aside, isn't it odd when a person seems to have no need for music?
