i just bought the dr nick simpsons toy
he comes in a doctors office
and one of the things he say is "you need booze!"
too funny
dear will
thanks for your intelligent response to my box set
"conversation" is a major admission on part
always one of my favorites.
and i'll concede to the arrangent
(especially after your amazing analisis
i like it, but always prefer a more tuneful joni
"radio" is a good tune
but just cause it was a single i didn't think it had to be included because
there are so many better songs on "roses"
and i was also trying to limit myself
to a certain number from each lp
ditto for "edith."
"tin angel" you can keep.
and i agree with you about "for free". ick
on other matters.
it seems like i'm always defending judy collins on these lists
but anyone who calls her music passionless
certainly has NEVER listened to her
early folk albums.
stirring full of passion and feeling
i mean have you HEARD "someday soon?" ("who knows..." lp)
"tomorrow is a long time????" (j c fifth album)
"the great silkie?" (second album-"golden apples...")
give these albums a chance.
dear adam:
i so agree with you on which version of "who knows" is better
ain't sandy denny just the greatest?
i can't tell you how much i love her.
there is a double cd best of
that is SO AMAZING.
not a bad song on it.
i still feel like crying that she died so early.
(ALL the faiport albums with her on them are INDESPENSIBLE)
(and what a killer version they do of joni's "eastern rain")
also the notion that joni would ever do "clowns"
is ludicrous. it is just so WRONG for her.
she wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole.
(hilarious comment on joan doing it adam)
and you are correct---but don't get me started
i love joan. none of these singing gals
would be here without her. NONE,
thank goodness there isn't a songbook of "dog eat dog"
for one thing there are no "songs" on it!
billy joel is the most gaggingly earnest
and falsly sincere hack i've ever heard.
and quit his mariah trashing
you watch-- i'll bet she does some good songs eventually.
love
walt
