First the Very Little Joni Content as it relates to this post-
Joni and Rosie Vela sang backup on Don Henley's "Who
Owns This Place" from the ST to "The Color of Money".
I would guess that this song is on Bob's "Covers and Contributions"
series....although Joni's voice on this song is blended in to the
point of unrecognizability....
Also, as may have already been mentioned, Joni has short appearances
in VH-l's Behind The Music series for "BTM-1970" and "BTM-1972".
These recent segments are obviously taken from the same interview.
There are one or two vintage clips, too, talking about the post 60's
singer-songwriter movement. VH-1 is not showing these again
this month-I'll try to alert the list if they play them again.
Rosie Vela content- I tuned in late to a showing of the new
VH-1 Storytellers Electric Light Orchestra episode-I was
transfixed immediately by Jeff Lynne in fine voice running through
a pile of his classic songs-with a great band, some string players,
and a striking woman singing next to him. I began to suspect it
was Rosie Vela, and this was verified when Lynne dedicated a
new song which he had written for her. The music was great-
I was never a big ELO fan-but really enjoyed this one.
The only reruns VH-1 has scheduled at this time are:
Tues June 19 1PM EST
Wed June 20 11:30PM EST
Randy says check it out!
