I just finished this recently - far and away the BEST Christmas gift I received! I enjoyed it a lot, but found it a little "padded out" in places, especially some of the detail about Charles Mingus and Georgia O'Keefe. Still a very well put together biography, although the ending was also odd. I turned the page expecting to read more, and there was nothing, it just kind of stopped! Still (despite the criticism) the best so far, by a mile - comparing it to Brian Hinton's is like comparing "Of Mice and Men" to "See Spot Run"! Hell - still waiting for the absolutely definitive work on Joni - the autobiography! ____________________________ "To have great poets, there must be great audiences too." - Walt Whitman [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hell's Personal Photo Page: http://homepages.ihug.co.nz/~hell/main/personal.htm Visit the NBLs (Natural Born Losers) at: http://www.nbls.co.nz
