As a geographer by profession I am drawn to the unique interface of place and music ion JOni's writing. What I want to know are the places Joni went to when she was ariting songs for specific albums. Or were songs more like stream-of-consciousness transcriptions? I know of a lot of artists who were able to compose songs while waiting in the airports (i.e. Julia Fordham, Jim Chappell, Peter Kater, etc.). But the places where Joni was shen she wrote songs for specific albums are intriguing.
