<<The Making of the 'Don Juan's Reckless Daughter' Cover

Great articles, Les! Lots of insight to be as short as they are - thanks to whoever
stepped up and transcribed them. (No mention of the "you-know-what" on the Hejira
cover, though! ;~)
And I loved this quote about DJRD:
"According to Joni, most reviews of the album missed its point: "Basically it has to
do with turning your back on America and heading into the Third World"
I'd always considered this to be a subtheme, surely, but wouldn't consider it as the
main topic...I'll have to revisit DJRD this week with that in mind. Funny that the
record kicks off with Cotton Avenue, which is NOT about heading into the third world
but rather going into the lights and noise. Maybe that's where it starts...hmmmm (he
thought to himself, while the rusted and semi-stripped gears in his brain began to
slowly whirl...)
Or maybe the theme started with Jungleline, or maybe with "out of the city and down to
the seaside"...
