Today brings me one of the most dependable artists around, and a solid contemporary of Joni's - Richard Thompson. Richard of course coming from the British folk background of Fairport Convention, who recorded a slew of Joni's songs early on: Both Sides Now Chelsea Morning Eastern Rain I Don't Know Where I Stand Marcie Night In The City Richard was also featured in the TNT Joni tribute, playing a blistering Black Crow and Woodstock. If you've not seen him live, you owe it to yourself to do so. He'll be on the road, touring his latest release, "Still" which I heard this AM and love. Produced by Wilco's Jeff Tweedy. Also coming out today is an album called "Mingus Sings", a collaboration between Frank Lacy and the Mingus Big Band. Frank has all 4 of the Joni-Mingus songs on the album (Goodbye Pork Pie Hat, Dry Cleaner, Sweet Sucker Dance, and A Chair In The Sky). The first two songs are fairly common, the latter two not so much. Happy new music Tuesday!

I see that more as self-serving and a way to draw attention to one's self than making any meaningful statement. The person I admire is Bob Muller for standing up to the bigots and backwards yokels in South Carolina and holding a Jonifest right in the middle of all of that wicked state.

Not that I recommend it. It's not like I can think of anyone within 1000 sea miles really liking me. So here I am quietly removing myself from people, making things of sense according to my nature. No-one needs to see the frown on my face and get upset with me. I probably come across as a pessimist, struggling here with a worried look trying to make sense of things. It would help if people complained more. Maybe it would help me to understand things. At least those around come away knowing what irks me. Things are certainly not what they seem. No need to be angry ruthless or mad if you can be even more cruel with a smile on your face and a sanguine disposition. It is self -love that saves the day and nothing more.

I think she does a great job on that notoriously difficult song to sing. Thanks for putting it out there. Bet Danica could do a great "Edith" (wasn't too crazy about Tina's). Jeff ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 20 Jun 2015 16:40:34 +0000 (UTC) From: Jeff Clark Subject: Covers 221 Thinking about it, I don't know if Danica would do Edith that well. Help Me, while musically challenging, has a relatively simple lyric to it. (Joni actually referred to it as a "throwaway" song). To sing Edith, as with most of Joni's songs, the vocalist has to *know* the song, the characters, the story line, etc to make it effective. Not saying she can't, its just that its the tendency of those Voice singers to just jump around with vocal gymnastics, etc. Well, back to the news ;)Jeff ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 22 Jun 2015 18:53:29 +0100 From: lawntreader@googlemail.com Subject: Re: The Jungle Line What a fabulous story, Lindsay.

There are too many horrible things happening in the world today. I would definitely like to go without any news, except for the weather report. If anyone thinks that's hiding my head in the sand, then so be it. I have no control over what goes on elsewhere in the world. Hell, I have no control over what goes on in my own home most of the time. It is too hard seeing the news when it's mostly bad and nothing I can do about it. We have to choose our battles, because we can't fight them all. I prefer to think of the vast majority of people who are good and decent and kind. I see the faces of the people who died in that horrific incident in South Carolina and I see so much good in them. I see the face of the guy who did it, and I see nothing much at all. He may be an arsehole but, more likely, he is seriously mentally ill and not enough is being done to help people with mental illnesses, because it just isn't sexy enough and there's no return on investment, is there. There are no easy fixes and no one to look like a hero for figuring it out. And it's too easy for people, including arsholes, to get guns. I'm sorry for your loss, the music world's loss, with Harold Batiste. May he rest in peace.
