Thread Name: Joni Mitchell on PBS
Subject: RE: Joni Mitchell on PBS
As we watched the live and times of Joni Mitchell couple of thoughts wove in-and-out of the PBS show
Nostalgia - Seeing a double bill around 1969 - Joni Mitchell and James Taylor (Apple Recording artist) at the Troubadour Club in LA. When she moved to MALIBU in the 80's we used to drive by her house a lot.
Clarity of Vision/Voice/Writing - Complete package for me.
CSN&Y - Since she seemed to have amorous/artistic contact with most of this group, we would be amused to hear NEIL YOUNG talk about another Canadian artist
Painting Talent - It wasn't until 1 hour 10 minutes into the show when they mentioned the word PAINTER
Small World - My wife and I attended a film showing of HEARTBURN back in the 80's. When the woman with popcorn was shuffling past our seat we were amazed to see Joni up close and all.
Sigh....I'm in love with this woman's talent. Again.
