Starts off with a nice soulful BSN from a band called "Joni's Soul". Makes sense. A couple you don't hear often, like Blue Boy and California, a couple you hear too much of, and a bit of everything else. The Triple Trio, a musical group from Hopkins School in New Haven CT,B goes WAY back to 1970. The David Crohan track is also off of vinyl. Nicholas Yee's River is a lovely cello instrumental. And there's some stuff from 2015 too. Here in Joni Coverville we always celebrate diversity. https://www.yousendit.com/download/bXBiZGVkOW43N0R2bk1UQw 1. Joni's Soul - Both Sides Now 2. Jesse Gimbel - River 3. Rachel Z Trio - Free Man In Paris 4. Travis Knapp - A Case Of You 5. Steve Klink - California 6. Triple Trio - Both Sides Now 7. Nicholas Yee - River 8. Adam Theis (Jazz Mafia) ft. Aima the Dreamer & Erica Dee - This Flight Tonight 9. Akasa - Big Yellow Taxi 10. V-A Virginia Schenk - Blue/Meaning Of The Blues 11. Natasha Agrama - Goodbye Porkpie Hat 12. The Tunesmiths - Both Sides Now 13. Robyn Sherwell - River 14. Tracy Wundrock - I Had A King 15. The Aviation Museum - A Case Of You 16. Samantha Echo - Blue Boy 17. David Crohan - Both Sides Now 18. Filipa Carmo de Silva - River 18 songs, 18 hits - enjoy.

Only Be Cool has been covered more than MATW. It's been a while since we've had a MATW cover...c'mon someone step up! Bob NP: Rachel Z Trio, "Free Man In Paris" B From: Pete Christensen To: Kenney C Kennedy Cc: joni@smoe.org Sent: Saturday, July 18, 2015 4:55 AM Subject: Re: JMDL Digest V2015 #306 Related to the part about bad blood...I was pleased to learn in the Malka Marom book that Joni prefers Carl Jung to Friedrich Nietzsche. In my personal categorizing of her songs, the hits tend more toward Jungian imagery and the misses are when she gets Nietzsche preachy. It is purely my own take and it seems correct that this might be the range for someone with sun in Scorpio and moon in Pisces. I imagine that there would have been no way to talk her out of Not to Blame. Then again, I was surprised to learn from an interview, I think it was Rolling Stone, Joni said that everybody hated Moon at the Window, which is a big hit for me. One of my favorites. Pete C. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 18 Jul 2015 06:06:08 -0500 From: Kenney C Kennedy Subject: Re: JMDL Digest V2015 #322 Joni wrote in the LHMF essay that one or two musicians that worked or trIed to work on MATW said that it had an ugly melody. i contest that, as do you obviously. i played it, picked from WTRF, for a guy i knew who liked jazz and disliked her. i think it's a wonderful piece & just thought it might win him over a tiny bit. Wrong! LiH (Laughing in Head) Interesting about Jung vs Nietzsche via Joni songs. i've always preferred Jung to Freud (from reading Man and His Symbols, carefully, and from what little i know of the latter). (Nevertheless i understand how important Freud is still, from reading Paglia). Nietzsche and the whole god is dead thing, and influencing Engels and/or Marx ... don't know enough about him, but think i'm skeptical (again LiH) Cordially, kK On Jul 18, 2015, at 3:56 AM, owner-joni-digest@smoe.org (JMDL Digest) wrote: > > JMDL Digest Saturday, July 18 2015 Volume 2015 : Number 322 > > > > ========== > > TOPICS and authors in this Digest: > -------- > Re: JMDL Digest V2015 #306 ["Pete Christensen" ] > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Date: Sat, 18 Jul 2015 04:55:19 -0400 > From: "Pete Christensen" > Subject: Re: JMDL Digest V2015 #306 > > Related to the part about bad blood...I was pleased to learn in the Malka > Marom book that Joni prefers Carl Jung to Friedrich Nietzsche.

Also, when replying, it's good etiquette to strip out the non-relevant part of the message and copy only the part you're responding to (as I've done in this message). Great to have you on the list!

This has been a summer of travel for me going first to Iceland and then spending close to a month driving as far north as St. Anne du Beaupre near Quebec City as part of a bucket list of a cousin who is like a sister to me. I want to make my next adventure the SC Jonifest!!!! I have a close friend here who loves music and is interested in making the trip with me. I'm still waiting to get my teaching schedule. Do you have a file you can send me of the fest itinerary of what is happening what days and lodging information for late comers so I can share it with her? I'm sorry if you already sent out this type of info and I missed it. I am way behind on reading email after being gone so long. Thanks!!!
