Thirty years from now, her songs will still be recorded by others (and I'll be on Volume 4,000 or something!).
And believe me, I don't care one patoot for any VHS, Rolling Stone, People Magazine, or internet poll. Means nothing, maybe even less than nothing. My point is that at this time in the music world, Joni's new release generates little to no excitement. Whether it's bad marketing or weak product, I'll not say. Much of our demographic (Boomers in their 40's & 50's) has given up on new music, even new releases from their favorite artists of yesteryear. Thank God for those of us who don't fall in this category, and even more for the youngsters who discover & acknowledge her true genius.
