True...we'll not be satisfied until we see the Ken Burns 12-part edition! :~)

As for available video, the JMDL does have Video trees always available which feature 
early performances of Joni on "The Way It Is" (CBC-TV), the classic Dick Cavett 
appearance, Isle of Wight, and many more.

I have (and have made many copies of) a video titled "Joni On The BBC" which features 
her 1970 "Pink Dress" concert, and a section of her 1974 Victoria Theatre appearance 
in 1974 with The LA Express, as well as an Old Grey Whistle Test Extra from the DED 
era, which highlights her painting as well.

I also have video of Joni on the Johnny Cash show, but the quality is so poor that I'm 
afraid another generation would be unwatchable. Note to self: get an upgrade of the 
Johnny Cash stuff.
