My word, y'all are so ready to bury this fuckin' project before it's even
gone retail.
However vulgar the analogy, I will admit that Joni could walk into the
vocal booth, take a dump,
and issue it with a scratch and sniff patch and I'd probably be blown away
and give it five stars.
That said, I just want to make clear that I DON'T THINK JONI WAS
NECESSARILY TRYING TO MAKE ANY SORT
OF 'NEW STATEMENT' BY RECORDING TRAVELOGUE. Moreover, I think she merely
was looking to put a new spin
on some of the older material she feels 'still holds up'. 'New Spin' and
'New Statement' are 2 different things
entirely, so 'Travelogue' will either excite or disappoint depending on
the expectations YOU bring to it...as far
as I'm concerned, Joni, Vince and the rest of the gang did their part
marvelously. With JM's feelings about the industry, I'm surprised she
bothered to finish out her contract at all, and I think we're lucky to see
a new release , period paragraph! On tour for BSN, she said that 'we had
so much fun doing this project, we decided to do another one'.
Don't disappoint Joni by being shortsighted about her new CD.
-Chris, enjoying my advance of Travelogue to the fullest, save
'Woodstock,' 'Bethlehem,' & 'Sex Kills', and even those are slowly growing
on me.
