> Books about or by Joni - are any outstanding "Must Haves ??" I don't know about "must haves", Fred, but as a Joni fan I love to devour all I can read about her. Shadows & Light by Karen O'Brien is a good and informative read. Stacey Luftig's "Joni Mitchell Companion" is also a nice synopsis of various writings, ordered to give you a good overview of her career. And don't forget the JMDL's own library with hundreds of articles! Joni hasn't written her autobigraphy yet - at least; it hasn't been published. > Is there a book of her lyrics, with the stories behind her songs ?? There is a book that contains her lyrics...of course, they're available on the JMDL as well. As for the STORIES behind the songs...well, Joni's left it to US to figure that one out! :~) > Are there books about her paintings?? There was a book published to coincide with her exhibit at The Mendel Gallery in Saskatoon called "Voices - The Work of Joni Mitchell". And she had 40 or so pages devoted to her in the book "Starart" featuring some of her art and a good bit of print as well. Bob NP:Joni, "Both Sides Now" White Swan 9/67
