This was one I didn't get way back when it came out - I don't remember why not. I only just got it a year or two ago. It is by far my favourite Joni album. A lot of people say it's flawed, but I'll take the flaws, thank you very much. i think Joni's singing voice is superb in this one. >Oddly enough I've > just read Walt's post about the guitar on TTT and > yes.

There's something missing, but I don't know what it is. There's a hollow, muffled kind of sound. Maybe it needed a bit more salt, or some cinnamon or something. >Is there any > musical/sound advantage for Joni using this > instrument in the studio?

Maybe it was her new toy and she was trying it out? I'd like to hear some of those songs done on acoustic - I wonder whether that'll happen? ______________________________________________________________________ Web-hosting solutions for home and business! http://website.yahoo.ca
