The Cameron Crowe interview is very good. He is also married to the hot blond guitar player in Heart. He dosen't have time to do everything. When Joni was approached to write a song for Grace of my Heart, she said how can I write a song for this movie, I'm not a hack writer? But then her cat got lost for seventeen days, so she wrote Man from Mars, another song on TTT. and the magnificent Lead Balloon. The though of having male actors play the females would be interesting to Joni. Shakespeare's As You Like It has been performed with role reversals. And everyone knows Joni's only real peers are Shakespeare and Motzart, oh and I forgot (Picasso).

I think the "A Woman of Heart and Mind" documentary is pretty good so I'm not sure that Burns would be a big upgrade. And I really don't want to watch another Jonathan Demme meandering documentary. Doing one decent one with Neil Young doesn't mean you should do more. Besides, I would want someone to tell about the passion - not the story - of Joni Mitchell. The person who might understand her is Cameron Crowe who did the excellent 1979 Rolling Stone interview with her. He gets the music. And the depth of his feeling for Joni is evident in "Almost Famous". The scene where William Miller is given "Blue" among other iconic albums is revealing. When Penny Lane was re-introduced to Russell Hammond, she begins to softly weep. "River" was actually being played in the background on the set when Kate Hudson did that scene; her emotion was brought forward by the song. The iconic scene when Penny Lane danced alone in the concert hall was filmed with Joni's "People's Parties" being played on the set. However as that song wasn't released until 1974, Crowe used Cat Steven' "The Wind" in the movie. (As we know, "People's Parties" was in Joni Mitchell's "Exile on Main Street" album -- or at least according to that audio magazine.) So I would vote for Cameron Crowe. He understands Joni. And, I think, he would "be honest, and unmerciful." - ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 20 Feb 2014 17:01:55 -0500 From: Debra Pease Subject: JONI Tablature book Cheaper on Amazon HI Folks, Just received an email from Amazon telling me my book was shipping so I went to their site and it is now on sale for$43.81 with FREE shipping.

When someone uses the wrong word ("there" for "their") it's a grammar mistake and when they use the wrong reference it's either relying too heavily on memory (I do this a lot, but, because I'm a bit of a pedant but mostly because I'm just getting old and I don't trust myself), I often check (research) to make sure I didn't make a mistake. I wouldn't write a letter to the editor giving the writer sh*t for that mistake though. If I did at all, I'd be much more objective about it. And I probably would do something about all those parentheses, but I give up. In my previous job, too many people called things "typos" when they weren't typos at all, so I get a bit bristly about it when people call mistakes typos. >________________________________ > From: Moni Kellermann >To: Anita >Cc: Catherine McKay ; Jim L'Hommedieu ; JMDL >Sent: Thursday, February 20, 2014 7:38:36 AM >Subject: Re: Spot the Typos njc > > >Am 20.02.2014 10:53, Wie Anita so vortrefflich formulierte: >> I'm playing "Spot The Pedant" >> Anita >> (That's supposed to be a LOL) > >I'm playing >http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6fHJBGpJMr8 > >Jefferson Airplane - Never Argue With A German If You're Tired > >(That's supposed to be a ROTFL) > > > > >moni k. - ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 20 Feb 2014 13:51:18 - -0800 (PST) From: Jeff Clark Subject: Re: biopic is it you?
