newcritics: I Love Joni

  • blue girl · 2 years ago
    Still a great post, Viscount. I remember it and can't believe it's going on two years since I first read it. You know I love Joni, too. Especially Blue.
    Age, kids, and cops will do that to you I guess.

    If you haven't read it yet then you must rush to

    and read Morrissey's interview with Joni Mitchell.
    Priceless.

    "And don't forget the songs that you made you cry/and the songs that saved your life/yes you're older now and you're a clever swine/ but they were the only ones who ever stood by you..."

    Viscount,

    You may indeed love Joni, but unfortunately, she loves Chachi.

    Sorry, couldn't help myself.

    Great post. Big fan of her music.

    V, you hipped me to Hejira but even so I've not taken to Joni as many have. It's not dislike in any way -- I just need to find my hook. It's there somewhere.

    Problem is, I listen to so much stuff that some artists are simply crowded off the schedule. I will renew my efforts in the Mitchell area.

    I consider God must be a boogie man - on Mingus - to be one of the most amazing pieces of music ever written. Personal taste, of course, but the sheer audacity of eking out that piece and launching it on the world is astonishing.

    I, too, am devoted to her work!

    I think the Saxophone is an intriguing instrument. I don't understand it fully though. Don't be too hard on yourself.
