But, he did organize an event for Leonard Peltier, a native American accused of killing two FBI agents, that Joni, among others, performed at. So, even if the song "Coyote" is not about him, there are links between Joni and Peter Coyote. Jewish boy from New York City could be considered Native American. There has long been speculation that is where the Lost Tribe of Israelites ended up.

A lot of folk Joni has worked with have passed away, as well as Myrtle and Bill. Lots of loss these past few years, not least Richie H.

Date: Sun, 28 Apr 2013 20:46:57 +0200 From: Moni Kellermann Subject: Re: Coyote On the wikipedia page for the song http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coyote_(song) it says that "In Chris O'Dell's 2009 autobiography Miss O'Dell she details an affair she had with married playwright Sam Shepard and states that Shepard then cheated on her with Joni Mitchell. O'Dell claims that "Coyote" is written about Sam Shepard." - ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 27 Apr 2013 13:28:19 -0400 From: Steve Dulson Subject: Question about Gravity's Rainbow > From: srobe444@aol.com > Subject: Question about Gravity's Rainbow > For those of you who have read Pynchon's Gravity's Rainbow, the fourth > part of the book begins with the epigram "What?", attributed to Richard Nixon. > > The early galleys, and in fact the advance reviewer copies, had a > quote from Joni Mitchell's Cactus Tree... > Anyway, can anyone shed further light on what the quote was or > anything else on Joni's brush with post-modernist literature? I'm a huge Pynchon fan, and love Gravity's Rainbow, but was unaware of any Joni connection. I love the fact that his first book was called V, and his second (major) book was about the V2, but called something else. *************************************************** Steve Dulson Costa Mesa CA FAR-West (Folk Alliance Region - West) tinkersown@ca.rr.com www.far-west.org - ------------------------------ End of JMDL Digest V2013 #555 ***************************** - ------- To post messages to the list, sendtojoni@smoe.org.

Was on a case where the head partner insisted I personally fly in all the case briefs for filing at the court in San Jose. (That is not normal or usual practice but he was the big guy so whatever). One day my flight was delayed for hours at LAX and once aloft I was barely going to have time to get to the court before it closed. A junior attorney did call ahead to the court and begged them to stay open for my late arrival. I was carrying two gigantic, heavy litigation bags of appellate briefs and several volumes of exhibits. As were neared San Jose, I asked the flight attendant if I could please move up to first class and be the first off the plane and she agreed. Suddenly none other than Peter Coyote himself jumped out of his first class seat, grabbed my heavy bags, stowed them and was extremely kind and friendly to me for the duration of the flight. He then helped me off the plane with the bags. First class guy all the way and made my day!
