C&L's Late Night Music Club with Joni Mitchell
It's Friday. I think we need to all calm down from a hectic week. I couldn't find a better selection than Joni Mitchell, Pat Metheny, Jaco Pastorius and Don Alias playing, "Coyote."
Here's a review about Joni and the band. Agree or disagree:
"Joni Mitchell's Shadows and Light is a doubly terrific treat for music lovers. For her fans, of course, it's a legendary 1979 concert showcasing the singer/songwriter in full artistic glory. And for modern jazz lovers, it marks the chance to see a band of musicians that can be called nothing less than a supergroup...read on"
I couldn't believe I didn't own a copy of this DVD. I do now.

I know this isnt late night..well unless you're just getting in from a late Friday night.. Thought you all would enjoy this.
When I was a teenager, I idolized Joni Mitchell. Although she was not knockout gorgeous like Carly Simon, she was even more intelligent and complex in the lyrics she wrote.
I definitely would have become a groupie if given the opportunity. I was just so totally in love with her. I remember when I bought "The Hissing of Summer Lawns" in around 1976. Practically everything the woman did was an instant classic and this was no exception.

I love that song "Blue Boy" by Joni Mitchell, it's from one of her early albums.
I'm thinking the album was called "Ladies of the Canyon", though that is the name of one of the songs from that album too.
