Driving to the office this morning, I was listening to James being interviewed by H. Stern (ironic? dichotic? odd, anyway). James had his acoustic guitar - amazing. The short of it is that, while James was recounting the Joni years, James mentioned (I paraphrase) that (regarding the recent "event"), "Joni had a 'scare', but is doing much, much bettter". Thought I should pass this along. James had some great Joni stories.

McNamara" Subject: Herbie Hancock and Chick Corea bring their jazz brand to Australia Here is the Joni content: One of Hancock's gifts is the instinct to not swing wildly between his two inner extremes, the esoteric v the populist, but to find ways to resolve the tension between them. Exemplifying that spirit are his occasional collaborations with Joni Mitchell, a singer whose talent for melody coexists with a sophisticated harmonic sense. Hancock first played with her on Mingus, her 1979 recording with musician, composer and bandleader Charlie Mingus, after he received an invitation via phone from bassist Jaco Pastorius. When the latter told him his old Davis saxophone colleague Wayne Shorter was on the recording, any hesitation disappeared. "I'll said, 'I'll be right over,' " says Hancock. "This was really the first time I met Joni. She wanted us not to dumb things down for a pop singer but to stretch out. So I immediately changed my idea of what Joni Mitchell would be and we really hit it off. I've played a lot of concerts with her, including several for charity. We did that for several years, we kept up this friendship." In 2002 he was part of an all-star line-up on Mitchell's album Travelogue, featuring jazz orchestra arrangements of her songs, and five years later recorded his own album of mainly Mitchell compositions, River: The Joni Letters, with Mitchell, Leonard Cohen and Norah Jones among the guest vocalists. http://tinyurl.com/nqp3dso Sue Tierney McNamara Email: sem8@cornell.edu ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 15 May 2015 14:07:55 +0000 From: "Susan E.
