interesting article- the only thing i winced at was that they edited out (given the time constraints but oh why not make it longer!) l. cohen's influence on joni's writing (i think cohen was one so influential) but it sounds like the released version was much improved & i can't wait to see it...

Hello Deb What could be offensive about what you suggest ????? As a non-believer who would be quite happy to have something more to believe in, this is where all religion falls down, the inflexibility, the intolerence, the closed shop mentality, you will be welcomed into any religion as long as you toe the line, but if you rock the boat or ask awkward questions and you will be as welcome as a fart in a diving suit. Some people might take offence, but God ! She would just laugh !

I don't think any of you will be disappointed. This is a very tastefully done look at our Joan, featuring much music and lots of lovely images, both still shots and film. It also includes interviews with James Taylor, Graham Nash, David Crosby, David Geffen and Elliot Roberts, as well as Joan herself. Is there anything in it that the really fan doesn't already know? Probably not. I for one had never seen Joni's wedding pictures from her brief marriage to Chuck Mitchell, but I'm sure some of you have. And there were some recordings played of early Joni solo, as well as with Chuck - again, things some of you probably have in your collections, but not this lister. I video-recorded it here at home and also realized I could videotape it at the TV I have at work (sometimes I'm such an eejit that never occurred to me until today when I was looking at the little TV on my desk, realizing it had a VCR built into it, so I headed down to the drugstore downstairs and picked up a videocassette. It's very obvious the love the interviewees have for Joni still, especially Graham Nash. It made me wish things had worked out for them, as it's very evident how madly in love with her he was. If the only problem was competition for who would get to the piano first, then I'm sure they could have figured that one out quickly; still I totally get Joni's point about her frustrated poet/artist grandmothers and why she didn't want to get into a relationship that might make her want to kick the door down. I'm looking forward to part 2 next week and once again, I don't think any of you will be disappointed when this shows up on PBS in a bit less than a month. ===== Catherine Toronto ______________________________________________________________________ Post your free ad now! http://personals.yahoo.ca ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 4 Mar 2003 19:06:22 -0800 (PST) From: Little Bird <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: Joni Mitchell - a woman of heart and mind, part 1 - CBC TV Catherine wrote: Is there anything in it that the really fan doesn't already know?

The article is a little too long to reprint here. Saw part one tonght. Great footage of Joni's classic early songs and Laurel Canyon days. Joni talks briefly about her breakup with Graham Nash. This film is very much about her music career, not so much a story of her life. Poetic and lyrical are two words that would describe it.

This hour is all about the Joni I fell in love with in 1968. As a matter of fact there is a segment shown from the first time I saw her--a black and white CBC presentation where she plays Circle Game and fingers a chord with her index finger over the top of the neck. There's wonderful home movie footage both of her growing up and after she moves to California, as well as pictures from her wedding to Chuck (no love lost there, as Catherine has pointed out). Plus short clips of Joni singing in her folk club days and performing "Blues in the Bottle" with Chuck (I get the feeling that she was the draw in that duo: the performance was pretty standard folk fare except for the fact that Joni's voice was so divine.) My eyes got kinda misty a few times, watching clips of Joni swaying in the long velvet dresses she wore at all of the concerts I got to see in the late 60's. Did I mention I was so in love with her? For about 20 years? Interesting though that the first hour brings us only up to about 1970. That leaves one hour to span from 1970 to today. What I want now is to have access to all the footage and sound files that they used to compile this portrait. I must have it!!!! This is definitely a "no warts" portrait but that's the way I like my Joni best.
