"you don't like weak women, you get bored so quick...you don't like strong women cause they're hip to your tricks" How the hell does Joni know me so well???
@hkeith0 hey, this is the info i have but i cannot be sure overall. Recorded in England 1972 (possibly the BBC's In Concert series) except * (and possibly +) Royal Albert Hall 1970 with James Taylor 01. This Flight Tonight 02. Electricity 03. Big Yellow Taxi 04. See You Sometime 05. That Song About The Midway + 06. The Gallery * 07. The Priest * 08. California * 09. Carey introduction 10. Carey 11. You Turn Me On (I'm A Radio) 12. For The Roses
Thanks for takin' me along for the ride. So poignant for me; I came in search of Joni's Radio; 1st song I learned on my Git as 19-yr-old Hippi chick - thot I was plugged into the universe. Moved to the Beach & studied/worked days & smoked & sang w/equally deluded friends @nite. By 26 my guitar collecting dust & I was Yuppietown bound. At 41 my 1 & only child was born; now, @ 14, he's a truly gifted soul w/his own Git. Came 2 share her sound on slow ver so we can do this & others together.
ahhh JOni!! your hurt my young heart so much, ive so much to see and do yet it all seems to relaxed with your voice, your heart and your soul. No one can define what a soul is but Joni just is it and i will skate her river for a lifetime :)
Hard to believe that Joni started smokin' at age 9. Goodness knows how deep her singin' voice is now. She hit #25 in Billboard, 2-3-73. God bless ya, for postin' it. Thanx!
Joni is the only musician who can bring the technical perfection of a studio recording to a live performance, and the emotion and force of a live performance to a studio recording. I could listen to her forever.
Joni, no baloney. Loved her virtually all my life - certainly as soon as I became familiar with her. Amazing gifts, amazing artist. Incomparable songwriter, her lyrics cut deep, speak to so many. The voice, well ... one of a kind. Joni.
It kills me that this isn't available on CD. So many of her live cuts are really unique and spontaneous. You get a much better taste of her sensibilities and humor. I'd take this over the studio version any day. Thank you Joni, for giving us these labors of love! :)
VooDoo, that's not a 12 string. Joni plays a lot in alternate tunings, and this particular song is on a regular guitar using an open D tuning (instead of EADGBE, it's tuned to DADF#AD). That's how she gets that full, open ringing sound.
AND, I believe that's her Martin D-28, which was unfortunately stolen later. Joni said in an interview she's played on a lot of guitars, but she still misses that one, it was her favorite.
My heart is smoking!
