On February 21 in Joni Mitchell History:

1966: Chuck and Joni Mitchell perform the last of seven nights in a row at the Chess 
Mate in Detroit.

2001: Tonight at the Grammy Awards, Carlos Santana and Joni Mitchell came onstage to 
announce the winner for Album of the Year.  The two stood unaffected by the massive 
crowd, lights, or anything else for that matter.  Patiently, they delivered the 
pre-fabricated patter leading up to opening the envelope.  As Santana ripped the 
envelope, Mitchell spoke the inevitable, "And the winner for best album of the year 
is" when Santana suddenly chimed in, "'A Love Supreme' by John Coltrane!"  They both 
smiled deeply.  It turned out that Eminem really won the Best Album, but the album of 
the year for Santana and Joni Mitchell was "A Love Supreme."
