has the shadows & light book been discussed here? i wonder what others think of it...i'm only about half way through...
i remember kakki making an observation about the innacuracy of one point (california recording studios) & i wonder if other errors have been found... i guess if we can give our opinions on joni's art, we can do it on this book, right? i like a lot of the quotes, it seems like much of the material is drawn from the jonimitchell.com website...there is a lot of great info (which is why i ask about accuracy) & often times she mentions discussions that have taken place on this list... but i find the book to be all over the place sometimes, with the author throwing in some of her own viewpoints on things which to me seems out of place...she goes off on tangents that seem irrelvant... the book is great for facts, but not very artful writing, imo...to be fair, it must be hard to write someone's bio...especially joni's seems like if a really good editor could take some time with it, this book could be greatly improved... i wonder if joni has read it... ******************************************** Kate Bennett: www.katebennett.com Sponsored by Polysonics/Atlantis Sound Labs Over the Moon- "bringing the melancholy world of twilight to life almost like magic" All Music Guide ********************************************
