The news that Joni's new recording may be split in two makes me excited and nervous...but far more nervous than excited.
On one hand, it's nice to know the powers that be think there's enough good material to make 2 recordings from it. In which case, I'll take it all at once, thank you very much! On the other hand, isn't Joni's contract down to 2 recordings? So if the work is split in two, Joni's obligation to record will come to an end. Which would mean, she's either doing this to free herself to find a better recording deal... or to finally, finally bring the recording thing to an end. I like the idea of her being contractually obligated to make music. j.
