confession: i'm not the kind of person who listens to joni a lot...tho i have phases when i will listen to one of her albums many times over...but usually i'm listening to more recently released artists & albums or to the songs inside my head...
tonight having read the first almost half of shadows & light, i pulled out 3 of her early albums...song to a seagull, ladies of the canyon & blue...in my memory, my favs have long been lotc & blue... but what suprised me tonight was how mesmerized i was by song to a seagull...even with its engineering problems, her vocal quality & guitar playing are soooo exquisite...the song that really suprised me the most was the pirate of penance...chill factor... maybe its will always have a special hold on me as it was my first introduction to joni...many power of moons ago when i was a young girl...i think it is also a perfect summer changing to autumn album... ******************************************** Kate Bennett: www.katebennett.com Sponsored by Polysonics/Atlantis Sound Labs Over the Moon- "bringing the melancholy world of twilight to life almost like magic" All Music Guide ********************************************
