Oh don't be. We're just as chock full of guilty
pleasures as we are JM minutae ... if the truth be
told. I suppose that I would mortify you to the core
if I were to say, for example, that alongside my
complete Joni collection (official and un-), you'd
also find such "inferior" material as ...
"Fresh Horses" Garth Brooks
"Saturday Night Fever" -- original soundtrack, and I
not only play it, I play it LOUD.
"The Visitors" -- Abba 12" single ... remember those?
"The Best of Bony M"
The Phantom of the Opera (complete London cast on CD &
LP, no less)
Both Barbara Streisand's Broadway albums
The first two Yanni CD's (before the wimpy live
orchestra stuff -- all done wih synths, and tasty when
in the, how shall I put this, right "frame of mind")
The complete Depeche Mode catalog, including some rare
12" singles ...
Madonna's "Immaculate Collection."
The Clancy Bros. Live at Carnegie Hall.
Def Leppard "Pyromania"
"Escape" & "Raised on Radio" -- Journey
"The Friends of Mr. Cairo" -- Jon & Vangelis
"Oxygene" & "Equinox" -- Jean Michel Jarre
The complete George Winston "Season" collection.
So many, many more, but the point being -- the musical
soul is not nourished by Joni Mitchell's output ALONE.
Heresey and Inquisition, but there, I've said it.
