Fascinating. The 70's was a fun time! Reminds me of one of my favorite books, A Low Life In High Heels by Cherry's cohort Holly Woodlawn.

Was not aware of this one - an early computer-animated film of Both Sides Now (1972) presented as part of a "Lost Animation" film festival. May be of interest to Joni and or animated film fans. I am both. I watched Toy Story 3 this weekend when I was up with my sisters in Raleigh and thought that it might just be the best of the trilogy.

Joni was definitely on the A list at this time in her career, also. Makes for fascinating reading.

Many other exploits in the upper strata and dark corners of rock and roll. First Joni mention is when O'Dell is managing CSNY's reunion tour of '74 At the Vancouver Airport we encountered a little problem. Joni Mitchell was supposed to meet us at the airport, and she was late. (I'd soon discover she was often late.) I used all my powers of persuasion to convince the folks at the airport to hold the plane. We were flying commercially, and we'd booked half the plane, so they were willing to inconvenience the other passengers to keep us happy. The other jc is during the Rolling Thunder Tour, road manager O'Dell has begun a tour romance with playwright Sam Shepard, married 32 year-old Ilinois farmboy, hired by Dylan to write a screenplay. A few weeks later, we were in Niagara Falls for two shows. After the evening show I looked all over the place for Sam. I couldn't find him anywhere. He wasn't in his hotel room. He didn't answer his phone. Nobody had seen him. The next morning I was headed downstairs for breakfast when I heard someone call out, "Have you seen Sam?" "Oh yeah, he was hanging with Joni Mitchell all evening," someone else said. Joni Mitchell? I thought. My heart was sinking. When I saw Sam later that morning, I ignored him. He looked guilty. A few nights later in Rochester, New York, he didn't show up at the hospitality room after the show. That was where I'd usually meet him and then we'd spend the rest of the evening together. Oh no, I thought, maybe this thing with Joni is more than a flirtation. I went up to his room and knocked on the door. "Who's there?" "It's Chris." Ten seconds. Thirty seconds. A minute passed. He finally opened the door and then retreated to the bed where he lay down, hands underneath his head, looking at me with a sweet little smile. I sat down at the foot of the bed, my back to the door. "What's going on, Sam? Why aren't you downstairs?" "I'm tired. I've just been lying around here." Behind me I heard the door to his room open and close. "Oh, what's that?" he said, all innocent like, looking over my shoulder. "Sam, who was here?" I knew perfectly well who it was. Joni had been hiding in the bathroom, and when my back was to the door, she sneaked out behind me. "No one," he lied. "You know what?" I said on my way out the door, "You're a shit." As the tour continues, O'Dell decides to avoid both Joni and Shepard, as much as possible, but in Bangor, Maine, while delivering the next itinerary, Joni, in her dressing room, asks O'Dell if she can sit down for a minute. "How are you doing?" she said, putting her makeup on the table and swiveling in her chair to look at me. Oh shit, I thought. She wants to have "a talk." I wasn't real comfortable with that idea. All I wanted to do was get out of there. "I'm fine," I said cheerily. "You know, I really admire the way that you're handling this thing," she said. Of course, I knew what "thing" she was referring to. "You just seem so confident and able to deal with this," she said. "I really respect that. I wish I could do the same." I was stunned. Here we were, two women vying for the same guy, but instead of doing that catty, competitive female "I've got him," or "I hate you for having him" thing, she was being real. Real. That really got to me. Of course, we both knew deep down that neither one of us "had" Sam- if he could cheat on his wife with me and then cheat on me with Joni, he was going to cheat on Joni sometime, too. What a crazy, conflicted situation: we were both head over heels for a man who had a wife waiting for him at home. "Joni, you have no idea how much I appreciate what you just said," I said. And that's as far as we went with it. A few days later Joni sang the song "Coyote" for the first time. It's a song about Sam Shepard and how he had "a woman at home and another woman down the hall" and he wanted her anyway. I was the woman down the hall. I loved the lines Joni wrote about how we licked our wounds and took temporary lovers, using "pills and powders" to get us through the drama. She was right. I had my pills, my powders, and my whiskey to help me through the drama of those hard days and nights. I knew I had to march forward-the show must go on. But that thing with Sam hurt like hell. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 13 Jan 2011 15:57:07 -0800 From: "Randy Remote" Subject: and did you know? about the line of Joni Mitchell underwear with Coyote motif from Dutch lingerie-ist Marlies Dekkers?
