At this link ( http://www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/joni-mitchell-complete-so-far-sheet-music/19937518) there's a few scans of some pages, albeit small ones. There's also tabs for the dulcimer songs including All I Want which never got an official printed tab until now. The transcribers who did ACOY, California and Carey went ahead and did a tab for it at the same time the Hits and Misses songbooks came out so I wonder who did this one. Simon, can you provide any details if Joel Bernstein worked on any of these transcriptions and also how limited edition is this? The previous book was available for like 4 seconds and I'd hate to see something definitive get such a brief release. - -Mark NP: Angie Stone "Backup Plan" ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 18 Dec 2013 18:57:29 -0700 From: Les Irvin Subject: Re: JM complete I'll announce the link for the signed copies here when it's available.

Willy has been done to good effect by Patrick Wolf - the video of it is readily available - I'm thinking he changes the line from "lady" to "lover"...sometimes those gender lyrical changes work OK and sometimes they don't...and that's a whole other issue. Richard Isen also recorded Willy from a male perspective and made the same word switch. It would be weird for a man to sing that lyric as written. Then again Tom Waits makes a credible hooker in Minneapolis... As for Conversation, earlier this year I saw a wonderful cabaret show in NYC with Paul & Patrick and one of the most moving performances was from a singer named Nicholas (forgot his last name) who did Conversation from the point of view of the fact that his lover is a man who was in a visible relationship with a woman but secretly in love with him. It was fascinating and put a whole other spin on a great song. More testimony to the greatness of Joni's writing and the universality of it, especially her love songs. I respect your honesty but personally I'm happy to see the changing trend. Men love men with the same emotions and intensity that women do. Bob From: Stewart.Simon@sunlife.com To: Bob.Muller@Fluor.com, Cc: JMDL , "Susan E. McNamara" , Michael Paz Date: 12/18/2013 02:29 PM Subject: RE: Retro Covers 97 - The Ghost of Covers Past Well, I personally consider the entire album Blue to be Joni's most intimate, confessional and personal songs that she wrote throughout her career., For me - Blue, A Case of You, Richard and River are tales of love and loss from a woman's' perspective. But "Blue" stands alone on this album as the ultimate expression of pain and is therefore, in my opinion, her most private of Joni's private songs. She wrote it for no one else except herself and her lover: Blue here is a shell for you Inside you'll hear a sigh A foggy lullaby There is your song from me. And the are countless others - Paz already mentioned WOHAM And what about Willie? Willy is my child, he is my father I would be his lady all my life. Conversation - She removes him, like a ring To wash her hands She only brings him out to show her friends. I Had a king - I can't go back there anymore You know my keys won't fit the door You know my thoughts don't fit the man They never can they never can So to try and answer your question Bob - its not so much the male voice that bothers me but more the message coming form a man. When I hear a man cover these types of intimate, personal and confessional songs - I sort of cringe listening to them because I just cant buy into the message when its coming from a man - it just isn't credible for me. Stewart That's an interesting comment, Stewart - what about the song makes you think that? I'm not saying it's right or wrong, just that I'm interested. Like Sue, I like a male voice on a Joni song as much as a female - haven't heard WOHAM sung by a guy so I'm not sure how that would go over. And thanks for the note, glad you gave them a listen.

Highlights for me had to be Songs to Aging Children Come in Estonian!!!!! (!), Glenn Campbell and Leslie Uggams doing JONI's version of BSN (not Judy's), and Michael Ball's Blue. Thanks again for all you do. I kept wishing I could see you in A Christmas Carol ... I'm sure you were great. Take care, Love, Sue Hi Sue, Contrary to your comment, for me, Blue is one song that I think was meant to be sung only by a woman - I started to listen to and then shut off Michael Ball's version halfway through the number. I do however, as I have mentioned previously, really like Rachel Fuller's version of Blue which I believe is quite different here than the Rachel Fuller cover of Blue that Bob had previously shared with us in an earlier covers release. While this new version is quite pretty, I prefer the initial version just mentioned. Rachel is also known for being Peter Townsend's long time partner and has worked with him on various musical projects throughout the years.. Thanks for the latest covers Bob. - --------------------------------------------------------------------------- This e-mail message (including attachments, if any) is intended for the use of the individual or entity to which it is addressed and may contain information that is privileged, proprietary , confidential and exempt from disclosure.

McNamara; Bob Muller; JMDL Subject: RE: Retro Covers 97 - The Ghost of Covers Past Hi Bob, Just finished listening to this grouping! Highlights for me had to be Songs to Aging Children Come in Estonian!!!!! (!), Glenn Campbell and Leslie Uggams doing JONI's version of BSN (not Judy's), and Michael Ball's Blue. Thanks again for all you do. I kept wishing I could see you in A Christmas Carol ... I'm sure you were great. Take care, Love, Sue Hi Sue, Contrary to your comment, for me, Blue is one song that I think was meant to be sung only by a woman - I started to listen to and then shut off Michael Ball's version halfway through the number. I do however, as I have mentioned previously, really like Rachel Fuller's version of Blue which I believe is quite different here than the Rachel Fuller cover of Blue that Bob had previously shared with us in an earlier covers release. While this new version is quite pretty, I prefer the initial version just mentioned. Rachel is also known for being Peter Townsend's long time partner and has worked with him on various musical projects throughout the years.. Thanks for the latest covers Bob. - --------------------------------------------------------------------------- This e-mail message (including attachments, if any) is intended for the use of the individual or entity to which it is addressed and may contain information that is privileged, proprietary , confidential and exempt from disclosure.

But "Blue" stands alone on this album as the ultimate expression of pain and is therefore, in my opinion, her most private of Joni's private songs. She wrote it for no one else except herself and her lover: Blue here is a shell for you Inside you'll hear a sigh A foggy lullaby There is your song from me. And the are countless others - Paz already mentioned WOHAM And what about Willie? Willy is my child, he is my father I would be his lady all my life. Conversation - She removes him, like a ring To wash her hands She only brings him out to show her friends. I Had a king - I can't go back there anymore You know my keys won't fit the door You know my thoughts don't fit the man They never can they never can So to try and answer your question Bob - its not so much the male voice that bothers me but more the message coming form a man. When I hear a man cover these types of intimate, personal and confessional songs - I sort of cringe listening to them because I just cant buy into the message when its coming from a man - it just isn't credible for me. Stewart That's an interesting comment, Stewart - what about the song makes you think that? I'm not saying it's right or wrong, just that I'm interested. Like Sue, I like a male voice on a Joni song as much as a female - haven't heard WOHAM sung by a guy so I'm not sure how that would go over. And thanks for the note, glad you gave them a listen.
