The interview is listed as being posted on 6/26/15 (yesterday), so it's one the most recent statements on Joni's health that we have. B Crosby confirmed that Joni "isn't talking yet"; B that's she's at home and recovering; that she suffered an aneurysm, and also, what some probably suspected: B that she wasn't found for a while. B Other than that, he didn't say much new factually, which B is likely in keeping with what he knows Joni would want. B What struck me, though, was his clear affection and admiration for her, even after all these years. B That came through loud and clear. Mary P. P.S. B We have a radio station called Triple M in my town! ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 27 Jun 2015 13:59:21 +0000 (UTC) From: Bob Muller Subject: Joni Covers, Volume 222 - That was just a dream some of us had Well well well...one week later and my state is going to take down their racist flag from the Statehouse grounds, the ACA is locked in and everyone gets to get married. My my my.Meanwhile here in coverville, things are choogling along as always and just like America we are MOVING ON with Volume 222. The late Etta James gets us started with her Amelia that was never released and is quite nice. Several names you'll recognize on this one; Idina Menzel, Heart, Brian Kennedy, and lots of great recordings from them and others. A couple of really rare vinyl tracks (Just Like This Train & The Circle Game) and all the rest.

That may be the greatest Joni article I've ever seen. So many great photos. And I find it most interesting to hear from other musicians rather than critics. I particularly liked hearing Al Stewart's remarks on the The Jungle Line. He also recently played our Kent Stage which led me to following up on his career o'er the years. He seemed to maintain a strong following in the UK. Like his website.Jeff On Thursday, June 25, 2015 12:18 PM, Jeff Clark wrote: Thanks!

He located the original recording last year as a downloadable track. Not to dissuade you from building your quad system but if obtaining the track is the motivator you might be working too hard!
