Yeah, Kerry, I know what 'cha mean. How can you pick ANY one out? But in
a way, it's possible that they were trying to say that "Blue" was the peak
of her "revealingly personal" songs. (She hates the word "confessional".)
Blue was my favorite for a long long time. Now, I can't pick one.
Anyway, *any* top 100 list is always weird. This one especially because
they picked "Revolver" as #1. I mean, Beatles, sure. But "Revolver" over
"Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band"? Over "Abbey Road"? Over
Styx's "Paradise Theater"? I'm kidding!
Oh well, I'm just happy that they remembered our Joan!
I'm taking a break from sending resumes, with Joni (the cat) at my feet, and
Joni (the Master) on the VCR, dubbing for a JMDLer.

Sorry if I'm repeating information, but I just tuned in to the last part of
VH1's "100 best rock n roll albums" and Blue was number 14! They showed
some nice pictures of Joni and a video clip of her singing "California."
The commentary included a weird statement though, something like, "Joni
reached her emotional peak with the Blue album."
Aren't all of her albums emotional peaks? Do they even know what they're
talking about?
