Yeh Vince, as Running Water would say, "I feel ya." I think most of us feel like we've received way, way more than we've given. I'll take up the thread and say "Thanks" again to a lurker, years ago, who read that I love premium vinyl. He went down to the post office one day in December, and a week later, I was opening up a 1/2 speed mastered version of "Court and Spark"!! I can't tell you how knocked out I was! You know the expression, "What goes around, comes around?" Well, as my dj friend says, "It comes back to you TEN fold!" Amen to that. (Tonight in particular I want to give a big shout out to Ashara for hosting this year's "JoniFest 2001- New England", opening up her community for us.) Bishop Vince in Michigan said, >>>> I am sitting here thinking on these things and the list of people who have been good to me keeps growing. I am literally sitting in my living room surrounded by tangible evidence of the goodness of folks in the JMDL. np: David Lahm's "Jazz Takes On Joni Mitchell" in particular, "Edith and the Kingpin"
