I am 15 and it's the first time I see Joni. She plays many of the songs that I know and love and plays 'Chelsea Morning' twice for a guy at the front who begs her to play it again. Even Marcie is in the audience! Joni plays some new songs. One with a rock and roll beat called 'They Paved Paradise and Put Up A Parking Lot', which I find very funny, as Joni laughs a lot at the end of it. Joni goes to the piano, which is a big surprise for me because I don't know she can play the piano. None of her albums so far had a piano in them. She starts to play and I catch the words of this new song and feel deeply,deeply shocked. She is singing a song about her new boyfriend: "We don't need no piece of paper from the City Hall, Keeping us tied and true." I am shocked and yet I am secretly thrilled. Is it possible to have a boyfriend and NOT get married? Surely not. And then she says something quite unsayable: "The bed's too big....." Yup, she's sleeping in the same bed and they aren't married!!!!!Not only that, she's singing quite brazenly about it. She sounds very happy! There are domestic details ' the frying pan's too wide!' And I wonder if there really are there men who sing in a park, walk in the rain and dance in the dark. It's just SO romantic and beautiful. It's so modern, so new...... and yet it's frightening because I don't know what it might mean to me in my life. I feel stirred up. I am sure you have to be married to share a bed with anyone other than your teddy bear. Joni's my heroine - but I think my Mum would tell me that the boys won't want her if she's slept around without being married. I might think secretly think that Joni's old man is keeping away those lonesome blues, but I think I'll play it safe, keep playing the first album where men are kings and women are princesses and nothing too murky goes on. 'My Old Man' - - a step WAY too far.

Men and women got married in church. I had no knowledge of Joni,s personal life at the time and none for quite a few years into listening to her so it was all guesswork with me and American English was as foreign to me as my own Glaswegian was and still is to most of the rest of the planet. I hadn't a clue what a parking lot was and had never heard of a tree museum and simply didn,t believe people were charged just to see them but although I did not understand a lot of what she sang about I got a real sense of connection with her. There was something in the nervousness in her voice, the jumping up and down of the scales, the breaks in the notes like she was a lonely squaw out there in the wilds and how stark it all sounded that resonated with me but it was The Last Time I saw Richard that stole my soul. I'd been in love or at least I thought I had and knew the loneliness she was singing about and the longing for release she expressed so exquisitely > I believed I too must have gorgeous wings and would be able one day to fly away. I saw us all flapping great big wings and somehow rising up from those tables in dark cafes out of all of this disappointment every time I sat and listened- with all my skill and attention to that song, I loved Richard more than any of it. I hadn,t a scoobie what a whurlitzer was but liked the word and again it dawned on me later that it must be what the American,s called a jukebox. I knew nothing of tatoos, that they involved ink on a pin underneath the skin was beyond me so I sang the lines like they were poetry...meaningless but beautiful was how I understood poetry. I wrote loads of the stuff and the more undecipherable it was the better. I presumed Joni applied the same tricks and loved her for it. I had no idea Blue was a person ! Yup. An idiots guide to the world of Joni Mitchell, folks but those are some of my recollections....Apologies but chuckles as well .

Besides it makes little sense to move all this furniture from Canada to Hollywood, unless Joni is such a clever business woman that she figures she could get more from it in L.A. with her name associated with the sale. As far as the items themselves, it is really weird. I mean a few pieces are in good taste: the carved stool, the frame, the dresser and i do see Joni owning those, not her parents. But for most of the stuff there i really cannot imagine Joni living in the middle of it. Is this the same gifted artist and painter i know? Do i have a perception of Joni that is totally out of place with her taste in household & deco stuff? By the same token i did go before the auction to the music store in Santa Monica that was selling a bunch of Joni's guitars, same where Anita got hers. I couldn't find even 1 that got me excited as far as the instrument itself, i mean they were pretty low grade and deteriorated. I ended up buying a non-Joni guitar that day. Go figure?

Maybe it's stuff Joni had in her (artist's) studio. It reminds me of some of the stuff my ex had that he'd put his paints on and so on. >________________________________ > From: Laurent Olszer >To: joni@smoe.org >Sent: Thursday, February 2, 2012 7:04:46 PM >Subject: Joni Estate Sale > >I agree with Anita.

Mostly rustic antique tables, chests, a handpainted lampshade and handpainted music stand. Some I would love to have but am sure the prices will be high so I'll just looky-loo. Pretty nice items overall and no Carnival glass or junky stuff. A few would go perfectly in Coyote Rick's Casa Alegre ;-) Kakki ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 5 Feb 2012 16:11:57 -0500 From: CoyoteRick Subject: Question for SuperBowl Breaks Later, when you are bored with the Super Bowl commercials Contemplate this. I've been having a Jackson Browne afternoon here in ATLanta. Have we ever discussed "That Girl Could Sing?" Could it possibly be written about a memory of Joni? Knowing their troubled past, just wondering? Talk among yourselves.

It was not a bunch of junk as was maybe shown in the first link. I did not see a lot of that stuff at the actual sale. The Joni items were decent, nice and valuable antiquesin perfect condition. The homeowners items were the same. Much of what you see in that first link was not what was at the actual sale. The Joni items I've seen in past photos from her homes in Laurel Canyon and Bel Air. It's some of her long time pieces and not her dad's stuff or stuff hauled back from Saskatoon. The only items that did not impress me were the 80s style lampshades.
