You know, I REALLY love the non-English covers because it involves so much more work to translate and create words that will still scan properly with the melody and rhyme, etc. Can be harder to search for those because while I'll do a search for "People's Parties" I'll seldom do one for "Folks Fester". :-) Plus, it shows how much Joni is ADORED all over the world. I hope she feels that. I really do. The chorus versions of BSN's always get me a bit emotional too, because it takes me back to 1969 and Mrs. Galvin's class. We sang BSN, I Am A Rock, and a couple of other songs in her class. She'd pass out the words and play the record and we would sing along. Plus, she was tall and pretty and had a big ol' beehive hairdo and I had a schoolboy crush. That might have been the first time I ever heard BSN!

McNamara" Subject: RE: Joni Covers Volume 202 - I'm a wild seed again Folk Fester ... it's hard enough to sing People's Parties in English, I was really impressed with this version. Great crop of songs, Bob. I liked the choral Both Sides Now, too. Something about those community type of covers that make me emotional, like I'm sitting in the audience at one of Kate's assemblies in middle school. :-) Susan Tierney McNamara email: sem8@cornell.edu - -----Original Message----- From: Bob Muller [mailto:scjoniguy@yahoo.com] Sent: Monday, December 15, 2014 11:19 AM To: Susan E.

Getting back on the covers train after a weekend away from things. And herewith is another BRAND NEW set, trying to stay on schedule to avoid falling farther behind... Volume 202 for your consumption and enjoyment. Most of these tracks from 2013, but going all the way back to 1970 with some rare vinyl by Andre Herve. > Kicking off this one is a much-sought-after recording, Janet Jackson's cover of BOBW, this was supposed to be released as part of the "Case of Joni" CD but got shelved. Kevin Sandbloom put his spin on the entire Blue LP, I've released a couple tracks from it, all of which I really dig, and here's his take on "Richard", equally tasty. Other selections from Joni Tribs are from Brian Kennedy, Sally Barker, NereideB and Irma Schultz, who tosses in a Swedish-language cover of "People's Parties". And back to Brian Kennedy's "Strange Boy"....wow, just wow. Some great recordings from names that may not be as familiar, like Vanessa Jacquemin and Sarah Hiltz, who gives us a bouncy swinging piano-jazz Chelsea Morning. Four River's for your holiday listening. > Mathieu Kowalski's BITB is actually a cover of the Lou Barlow version and as such is a tad strange. 79+ minutes of Joni covers, here's the link and the Table of Contents: > https://www.yousendit.com/download/UlRUTGs1YUkrV3dFSzhUQw > 1.

No major artist has a body of work as consistent as Joni's. All of her albums are very good so any kind of compilation really dosen't suit her; she always remain an enigma.JeffNP Fairport Convention - Fotheringay ------------------------------ End of onlyJMDL Digest V2014 #428 ********************************* ------- Post messages to the list by clicking here:mailto:joni@smoe.org Unsubscribe by clicking here: mailto:onlyjoni-digest-request@smoe.org?body=unsubscribe
