Very simple. However, mistakes apart, a very heart warming tribute by someone I used to love most dearly until she decided to try and be a soul singer. If only she'd left it to Aretha!

Thought it would be of interest to the group. Best Paz seeing Kazi's artwork for the Submarine boot reminded me of this great boot art site: http://www.bigozine2.com/cdcvrs/artwork.html probably as good as pink whathisnames art site. . __,_._,___ ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 11 Oct 2010 10:12:09 -0600 (MDT) From: TheStaff@JoniMitchell.com Subject: Video addition in the Library: Hunter Another video has been added to the Library at JoniMitchell.com: Hunter - BBC In Concert, London, England 1970 View it here: http://jonimitchell.com/library/video.cfm?id=226 ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 11 Oct 2010 10:23:39 -0600 (MDT) From: TheStaff@JoniMitchell.com Subject: Video addition in the Library: The Gallery Another video has been added to the Library at JoniMitchell.com: The Gallery - BBC In Concert, London, England 1970 View it here: http://jonimitchell.com/library/video.cfm?id=227 ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 11 Oct 2010 13:21:00 -0400 From: Susan Tierney McNamara Subject: 2nd Annual Joni Mitchell Tribute Concert, Ithaca, NY REVIEW The Community School of Music and Art hosted its 2nd Annual Joni Mitchell Tribute Concert to benefit the school on Saturday night (Oct 9). The concert was held in the 3rd floor auditorium which is about 100 years old and has a great stage and beautiful acoustics. I think there were about 100 people in attendance. There are so many Joni fans in Ithaca that all of our open mikes and tribute concerts over the last 8 years or so have always been standing room only! Joe Gaylord, who I have now dubbed "Deep Tracks," hosted the event. Joe will always stand out in my mind as the first musician at our first Joni Only open mic in 2004, who opened the event by singing "The Wolf that Lived in Lindsay" with audience participation howling! So, Joe asked if I would open the night and I had decided to reprise my set from the Ogden Museum in New Orleans: Who Has Seen The Wind and Song To A Seagull. About 3 minutes before I got on stage Joe asked me if I could sing three songs, so I had to quick go through my memory of which songs were in this C tuning and thought O well I could do Carnival in Kenora. I put my top string back up to E and went on stage. After singing CIK, I went to drop the E down to C and wouldn't you know it the string popped like Popcorn, Popcorn (cottn candy). Shit, think quick Sue: So I just kept on going and sang the next two songs like everything was normal, although I was so sad that the double C drone was not there for Song to a Seagull. Oh well it seems everything was fine ... I told the musicians later that I was happy to take the bullet and no one else was subject to a broken string for the rest of the night!! :-) Next, Joe Gaylord took the stage with Susan Lytle to sing River, and then he was joined by Deb Moree on viola to do a GREAT version of Ethiopia. Deb's viola added such a haunting vibe. Then they played The Priest, another one of my favorites and Joe really nailed the guitar on this one. Excellent set. Joe invited a number of groups from Ithaca College's music department to perform. A quartet of wonderful young musicians, playing bass, guitar, bongos, and a lovely singer, channeled Joni and Paco to perform Coyote and Hejira. Then two dance troupes: IC Unbound and IC Tap Club gave dance performances. IC Unbound danced to Sarah McLachlan's ethereal version of Blue and IC Tap Club performed to Big Yellow Taxi. Shades of Fiddle and the Drum! A local jazz pianist, Cookie Coogan, now performed a medley of three of her favorite Joni songs: Good Friends, Car on A Hill and You Dream Flat Tires. I was floored, she really belted it out and her choice of songs was really surprising! I love it when I hear a songs that you don't usually hear at these tributes. You Dream Flat Tires, really amazing. Our friend Patti Witten really raised the bar this year by joining with GREAT Ithaca musicians Molly MacMillan and Dee Specker to tackle the album Court & Spark. Patti told me they were thinking about doing the WHOLE album, but that may have been too ambitious :-). They settled for WOWing us with Free Man In Paris, Peoples Parties and The Same Situation. Then they did Coyote with Susan Terwilliger playing kicking lead guitar (a girl who CAN REALLY PLAY!) Molly MacMillan then lead a classic performance of Down To You (breathtaking). All three, Molly, Patti and Dee nailed the vocal harmonies on all these songs, it was quite amazing. But that's not all folks, they closed their set with a rockin Raised on Robbery. Ok, and here's the thing that really blew me away: Patti never picked up a guitar, she sang and played FLUTE throughout. I really hope a recording comes out because this was really the highlight of the night for me. Next Susan Terwilliger played solo on The Circle Game (with audience participation) and then Molly joined her for A Case of You. As often happens with these tribute concerts, some songs are repeated. All in all we had two Blues, Two Big Yellow Taxis, Two Coyotes and believe it or not, Two Down To Yous. Christine Evans, singer, and Eric Miller, pianist played great versions of Blue and Down To You although they seemed a little disappointed that their songs had already been played. Believe me, I never mind hearing these songs over and over again, that's for sure. The last artist to the stage was another Ithaca College musician, Erika Lundahl, who performed very original versions of Both Sides Now and Big Yellow Taxi. I hope that the CSMA made some money that night. We raffled off some Joni cds and dvds and we all signed the beautiful poster that Patti Witten designed. Thanks again to Joe Gaylord for putting this together and I can't wait till the 3rd annual next year.

I can only echo Bob's words and congratulate all involved for a wonderful initiative. Maybe what gives me the biggest buzz is the knowledge that something like this would not be possible if Joni's music was not alive and much loved in the hearts of many. You, Joe and Patti have given it a good boost, but you must have been joined by so many more people who carry this musical treasure throughout the decades. That's just wonderful.
