good morning list:

I decided that earlier, when I first got up, while reading emails, I would go back and 
listen to Night Ride Home (giving into pear pressure I guess LOL)  For me, this was 
the 2nd Joni album I bought shortly after I bought Blue.  I remembered the feelings I 
had when I bought the cd.  I had read a review of it in Rolling Stone, and remember 
the review saying something about Joni visiting Rickie Lee Jones territory in Ray's 
Dads Cadillac.  I was also getting into Rickie at that point as well so I rushed out 
and bought it.  I also remember my minister at the church I was going to at the time 
coming over and I was playing Joni's Night Ride Home and him liking it.  When he asked 
who that was, I told him, oh, it's Joni Mitchell's new album, and he was like, she's 
around still?  Well that year for his birthday I bought another copy of Night Ride 
Home and gave it to him:-)  

For me, my favourite songs are the title track, Come in from the cold, and Nothing Can 
be done.  I mean, I like all the songs on the album, but I have copied onto Real 
Jukebox the 3 songs I mentioned so I can listen to those on my computer when I am 
surfing the web etc.
