Sorry Wally, I didn't mean to hit a raw nerve. You've got me all wrong. I still think Rickie Lee Jones is better (and beyond) 95% of what's out there. Just not quite in the same league as Mitchell & Nyro (to me). Just bought "Girl At Her Volcano" which is interesting. Especially like "Pop Pop" (love her take on "Spring Can Really Hang You Up The Most"), and I used to listen to the early stuff quite a bit--probably more than you realize. I've got lots of Rickie Lee. She just always seems to try a little bit too hard to be different, instead of letting it come naturally. Just my opinion, which is probably wrong. And yes, Carole King wrote "Up On The Roof"--and Kris Kristofferson wrote "Me & Bobby McGee" for that matter. I'm well aware... B. K.
