I was looking for some key as to why when I attempted, in that way you do, to play some Joni songs from the books (that have the little pictures) they sounded like utter shit!!! Into the search engine went "Joni Mitchell TABS" and up came the JMDL... Hey fantastic..lots of info that still boggles me...i need a serious one to one year with someone who can really play...(send CV TO.....).. and saw the digest.. so I signed up on Christmas Eve last year..... Yes it was a bit of a bleak one!
Since coming to the list I have found it to be warm, welcoming, interesting, informed, erudite, charming, funny, homely, intellectual, open eyed, and a real microcosm of the world at large. IT IS A COMMUNITY. Within a community there will be some you gel with, some you admire from a distance without wanting to be in their shadows one little bit, some you think are downright spooky (still waiting for them to emerge) and some people you wish you lived next door to. I can think of a road I would like to populate with the people I have (virtually) and face to face met on this list... I came here looking for guitar tabs and found new friends all over the world and in the UK. I have a wonderfully rich bunch of e-mails from those I am in touch with off list and that is fantastic for someone who works alone most of the time and finds she is at odds with some of her contemporaries because she is NOT cut from the same template that some of them seem to be. But what brought me to Joni land is Joni....and her music and hearing Little Green drifiting out of a window and knowing I HAD TO HAVE THAT LP..... SIQUOMB isn't she Lucy
