I'm about one-third through and was hoping for some mention of Joni, given that they played in some of the same places, but maybe Bruce was a few years behind her. In any case, I found a small mention, and it rings very true to some of the things Joni has said regarding us Canadians and how we treat our own artists, or at least the way we used to. Here's what Bruce says: "It... bothered me that for Canadians to get accepted as legitimate artists - and this is part of our national pathology - we had to first sell ourselves to New York or Los Angeles or London for a stamp of approval before being accepted by our public. So I went in the other direction and set out to build an audience in my own country before I looked elsewhere. I remember getting into an argument with somebody on an Ottawa street one day about whether Joni Mitchell was Canadian. "She couldn't be; she's too good," he said. That dreary cluelessness typified Canadians' self-perception in those days." Bruce Cockburn, "Rumours of Glory", p. 173 ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 13 Nov 2014 17:22:51 -0600 From: Jack Merkel Subject: Re: Mingus concert review Fantastic review! If a recording of this never reaches my ears, I will be "consigned to flames of woe". I'm so happy for the band and everyone fortunate enough to have been there.

Jesco von Puttkamer and Joni Mitchell Posted on 24 June 2012 by RC In the dedication on the inside gatefold of her album The Hissing of Summer Lawns, Canadian singer/songwriter Joni Mitchell thanks bNational Geographic Magazine,b amongst others, but doesnbt explain why. Herebs why http://raggedclaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/w-jesco-von-puttkamer_brazils-beleaguered-indians_national-geographic_feb1975.jpg The photographer was explorer W. Jesco von Puttkamer, who documented the plight of bBrazilbs Beleaguered Indiansb for National Geographicbs February 1975 issue. Joni Mitchellbs The Hissing of Summer Lawns was released in November 1975. In her notes, Mitchell tells us that she bdrew the cover and designed the package with research help and guidance from Glen Christensen, Elektra/Asylum Art Director.b She thanks National Geographic Magazine and others, as Ibve already said. She does not, however, mention W. Jesco von Puttkamer by name. Of course, I realize that 1975 is a long time ago, but it was only today at a garage sale that I purchased the National Geographic Picture Atlas of Our World (1979) for a buck and instantly recognized the reprint of W. Jesco von Puttkamerbs photo on page 72 as one of the primary reference sources for Joni Mitchellbs drawing. - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Personally I have never seen that photograph and find it very interesting to discover now. moni k. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 14 Nov 2014 01:05:20 +0200 From: Michael Paz Subject: Re: Mingus concert review WoW.
