Does anyone else agree that it would be a great (and not too time-consuming
or expensive) project for Joni to return to 'Dog Eat Dog' and, keeping the
original vocals, remaster it in a more timeless form? Just acoustic piano
and guitar on some of those songs would be delicious! I think DED would be
judged a lot more fairly were it more in keeping with the production of her
other work - I truly believe they're great songs but a lot of people cant
listen to them because of how they sound. I often sing them just myself and
piano - songs like 'the Three Great Stimulants' and 'Impossible Dreamer'
sound great this way. Joni probably wouldnt want to return to a finished
project, on the other hand she certainly seems to feel it deeply when one of
her 'babies' doesnt get a fair run... well, its a shame she doesn't read the
list (not that she'd listen to me Im sure!)!

On an unrelated topic, after visiting Venice this year I bought the film
'Dont Look Now' on DVD (which is set there), I remembered it from seeing it
when i was younger. I love the film, but can anyone throw any light on the
ending? The documentary on the DVD only waffled on in a kind of luvvie
manner about the imagery and genius of everyone involved. But no-one seems
to know what it all means!! I know its open to interpretation but I can't 
think of
an explanation for the ending at all... Probably no-one knows the film but
JMDLers seem a clever bunch so I thought I'd give it a shot!

Ciao for now,
Owen
