Hi Ian,
Welcome!!! It's so good to see you here. Nice introduction. This is
definitely the place to reconnect with Joni's music in many different
ways. Have you listened to Hissing lately? (Oh yes, there's no delay in
the questions; you're in the thick of it now :-)
And as for your next cd purchase, I can hear the chorus building now,
chanting "get Hejira." Please let us know what you hear as you discover
the post-C&S wonders of Joni. It's always a joy to experience and
rediscover her music through some "new" ears. So welcome to the new
adventure! Enjoy!
atb,
Debra Shea
