The Daily Telegraph has a review of the recent The Studio Albums 1968-1979 boxset. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/music/cdreviews/9655783/The-Studio-Albums-1968-1979-by-Joni-Mitchell-review.html Cheers - Joe np - Barton Hollow - The Civil Wars - -- - -- Joe Jones +44 7831 914094 ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 17 Nov 2012 21:49:51 -0500 From: Sally Subject: Re: Sweet Bird 100% JC Thanks for the interesting info, Bob! Hard to believe no one's covered "Electricity"...I love that track. It seems much more coverable than say...Banquet. I love these stats! Have there actually been covers of DJRD? Brave soul who tackled that one!

As soon as someone releases an "Electricity" cover we can add FTR to the list. "Underneath The Streetlights" is all that WTRF lacks. Don't think we'll ever put DED and CMIARS on the list. > > Speaking of covers - a retro edition is right around the corner. > > Bob ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 17 Nov 2012 05:54:00 -0800 (PST) From: Bob Muller Subject: Re: Sweet Bird 100% JC Well of course I'm reading silly Sally! :-) And yes, there are others...

Posted by: "rexms2002" rexms2002 https://www.facebook.com/annielennox Two years ago it felt like Christmas every day for me as I was recording The Cornucopia through the first half of 2010. Suddenly it's November 2012 and quite frankly it really doesn't feel like anywhere near Xmas in any shape or form whatsoever. According to some department stores and shopping malls, the run up to Xmas actually started in September. Which I suppose makes some kind of sense if you parallel it with Global warming... Undeniable to some, and absolutely deniable ...to others. In any case, whatever's happening to the weather system and the seasons, we have to admit that something seems to be amiss in the state of Denmark! So ...It's coming on Christmas, they're cutting down trees..They' re putting' up reindeer and singing songs of joy and peace ( as the great lady sang) .. Do you wish you had a river that you could skate away on?!! River by Joni Mitchell It's coming on Christmas They're cutting down trees They're putting up reindeer And singing songs of joy and peace Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on But it don't snow here It stays pretty green I'm going to make a lot of money Then I'm going to quit this crazy scene Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on I wish I had a river so long I would teach my feet to fly I wish I had a river I could skate away on I made my baby cry He tried hard to help me You know, he put me at ease And he loved me so naughty Made me weak in the knees Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on I'm so hard to handle I'm selfish and I'm sad Now I've gone and lost the best baby That I ever had I wish I had a river I could skate away on https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash3/c0.0.843.403/p843x403/579233_10151242534779589_1461482678_n.jpg ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 16 Nov 2012 19:40:37 -0500 From: Jane Cox Subject: Sweet Bird This work is beyond words, although all your words have moved me. I listened to it on headphones and heard the two guitar parts, of which I am assuming she performed both. The sound engulfs my mind and the words make me long for something I cannot describe. It is a work of great passion. PS I am new to this list. Hello to all!
