Subject: RE: Joni Mitchell - Archives - The Early Yea
Heard a bit of it from a local radio folk show here in Ashland Oregon. Sounded like real folk music! A voice and a guitar. I don't like folk music that is over produced with drums and a whole slew of instruments drowning out the voice. Don't like the folk shows that play mostly singer/songwriter where you'd have to listen to a hundred of them before you hear one you'd want to hear again (I turn the radio off before I get to that one in a 100).
The studios like to have you lay down an instrument track then lay the voice over that. There is too often a glitch in synchronicity I do not care for either. Rather have a normal live burp in a live recording, real music. So the tracks I heard from Joni was real music, folk music. Prefer that over her studio stuff. gopherit
