Thank you for the welcome, and thanks to everyone for the
suggestions. Last night I dug up an old, old vinyl copy of Song to a
Seagull that I haven't heard in years (I love her artwork!). I thought I
might have others, too, but couldn't find. I will give Song... some more
listens and also check out everyone's suggestions for me (I saved all your
emails). I do tend to like the more sparse, less pop and/or jazzy Joni,
even though that isn't necessarily what I like in other artists. Are there
many Leonard Cohen fans here?
