hey girls! just finished listening to 'peoples parties' and as i thought she is singing harmony, wonderful, infinite harmony with herself!!! as usual things in her harmony seem a little off kilter but you know that is one off the reasons i'm so drawn to joni's music. those off kilter harmonies add an ethereal quaility to her music that really pull me in.( jane siberry, another canadian singer - songwriter, has that same quality in her songs, i wouldn't be surprised to discover joni is one of her inspirations.) i'm sure i have mentioned this before, wasn't joni one of the first to overlay her own voice for the harmonies? i don't recall anyone else doing it at the time joni was. regardless, i just love them...
joni harmoniously yours, warren keith p.s. i seem to recall that the off kilter or off key orchestra on DJRD was one of the the reason charles mingus wanted to work with joni.
