Corinne Bailey Rae Mark and Cat, both your emails have removed the romantic notions (think the cover of Hejira) I have about snow! However, lovely to hear about it. Snow forts sound just up my street! If we get any more snow I shall make one and pelt all the kids passing by. One wonderful thing happened in our garden when we had snow before Christmas (unheard of for years in the UK) was that we had 6 waxwings visit our rowan tree. They hang out normally in Siberia and everyone was amazed that we had them here. They were beautiful. It made the national bird watching news here!

ONB is definitely an obscure Joni song, but given the depth of Joni in the film, I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't the source for that particular twist in the film. Thanks for mentioning it.

As I mentioned last week, I bought a Philips CD burner over 10 years ago so that I could convert tapes (Laura Nyro, Buckingham-Nicks, Marc Jordan, and Joni tape trees among others) to CD. I still have a couple tapes that I never converted (how many '83 shows does one need on CD, really? I've got about 20 or so.) I don't have it set up as an "easy set of files to access", however. Perhaps some of the JMDLer's who have put this material on Dropbox or use torrents (I do neither) can assist. <(p.s. Do I remember correctly that we once circulated a version of The Circle Game by Dolly Parton from her 70s TV show?> Yes we did - of course since then Ms. Parton has released her own take on BSN with Rhonda Vincent & Judy Collins (buried in the mix unfortunately). That's TWO big ones from her.

Perhaps you already know that Joni performed Passion Play at one point before she had written words for the song. Here's a write up from the JoniMitchell.com website. I remember seeing a video of that performance, I can't locate it now, but it may still be kicking around somewhere. by Jim Leahy "Jony Mitchell: L'impegno, l'amore" is the title of the Italian TV broadcast of Joni's mini-concert at 1988's San Remo Song Fest where she received a songwriting award. ....But the real treat, the one that ends the show, is a "work in progress" -- a song that would eventually become one of her most elliptical and enigmatic song-poems: Passion Play. Just guitar chords and Italian-sounding syllables: "bom de dom dom day . . . bella dom dom day" with a few words: "It'll take time, but time brings changes." Peaceful, almost meditative -- this kind of committed singing you can't fake. (Submitted by Mauro Regis on May 10, 2000): This was the second (and last) Joni's appearance in Italy after 1983 tour. She was prized with the Premio Tenco, and performed a solo set of about thirty minutes. She was cold and throat ill, but played an incredible set, with one of the early (or maybe the first) live performance of "Night Ride home", and a building up "Passion Play" with no words. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 19 Jan 2011 17:21:43 -0600 From: Kate Johnson Subject: Vancouver Playhouse's Joni Mitchell: River What's this? http://www.davidcooperphotography.com/music.html Just for your interest.
