That's an interesting thread.
Back in the days when I was still trying to turn non-Joni fans on, I usually
played them first the song Blue to show the vocal performance.
Then I would try to show the variety of styles with tracks from Mingus (The
Wolf for instance)
and DJRD (this was at least 10 years ago)
I would never think of playing Song for Sharon nor Cold Blue Steel though.
But again I've never succeeded at this (that's why I gave up).
If anyone has had better luck, what songs do you find impress non-fans best?
