<< 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.... >>
Didn't know about that one, Randy...thanks for the heads up. I sorta backed
off of the "contributions" when I was told that they would be issued
separately.
And that was OK by me, because to me the covers are a lot more interesting.
Like you say, a lot of the contributions that Joni makes to these other
records are almost impossible to tell; if it wasn't in the credits you'd
never know it!
And, to change the subject...ELO put out a fairly decent string of records,
"Face The Music", "A New World Record", and "Out of the Blue" (which would
have been a great single disc but was a so-so double). I saw them live in
Greensboro when they were touring Out of the Blue, and I always loved their
version of 'Roll Over Beethoven' that intro's with the traditional strings of
Beethoven's Fifth, then kicks it out with that classic Chuck Berry hook. It's
one of those moments that makes rock great!
