"i need you guys to give me your
suggestions for the two cuts from each cd that you think would best represent
that particular phase of her career
................ so,
if you want to help, please limit it to just two per album. (cheating by
exceeding the 2PER limit, tho perfectly understandable, will NOT be helpful!)
of course, i'd be interested in hearing your thoughts behind your choices,
but that is entirely optional..." - Rick
Some requests are just two hard ;-~ I am curious as to which songs you
have already sent him, so as to avoid duplication. Here's my list (I have
left off many personal favorites, and having said that, will offer no reasons
for my choices - No Apologies, either.
STAS Michael From Mountains and Cactus Tree
Clouds Midway and I Think I Understand
LOTC The Priest and Woodstock (starting to get really tough - left off 2
or 3 greats)
Blue Blue and A Case of You (truly impossible problem - at least TLTISR
not lost)
FTR Lesson in Survival / Let the Wind Carry Me (ouch, ouch)
C&S Down to You Raised on Robbery (versatility)
MOA Cold Blue Steel and Woman of Heart and Mind (Ha !)
HOSL In France They Kiss on Main Street and Shadows and Light (my guess is
you already included some of the jazzier ones on the other tape)
Hejira Coyote and Song for Sharon
DJRD Dreamland and DJRD (ouch ouch, ouch ouch)
S&L Amelia and Hejira (throw in Pat's solo, of course - mandatory)
Skip to the 90's (Mingus, WTRF, DED and CMIAR later)
NRH Slouching Toward Bethlehem and Come In From the Cold (very even
album)
TI Last Chance Lost and Magdelan Laundries (ouch, ouch)
TTT Crazy Cries of Love and Face Lift (Joni's Choices per PWWAM)
BSN BSN and A Case of You
What a tape - I'll send the missing 4 in a later post.
PS When you are done, maybe you should make multiple copies and send them
to the whole list for cost plus royalties to Joni ;-)
PPS He doesn't need BYT or Chelsea Morning for levity - he's a jazzer ;-),
Bob S. (That was fun).
