Ooops. My memory misinformed me. It had to have been in 1969 that I saw Joni at the Troubadour. Her first appearance there, according to http://www.jonimitchell.com/appearances.html, was in June 1968, and I was still at Fort Benning waiting for my separation orders from active Army duty. So it was January or May 1969, when I was living in Hollywood. The other details I offered are reliable, however. Blushing in chagrin, Gil
