8. Joni Mitchell - Let The Wind Carry Me (11-17-72)

[commonthread2]

way ahead of her time alot of the writers from that era were definitly standing their ground for what they believed was their right a speople and artist to create great music and art or anything / because of a war that was nutts

I remember this as a child I was really little but it was safe to go into their music not now the whole feel is different but lets try to keep the music alive

"She dont like my eyes painted green... She dont like me staying up late in my high heeled shoes living for that rock and roll dancing scene.. Papa says leave that girl alone Mumma.. She's lookin like a movie queen.." beauty x

There are two photographs that I have seen of Joni that are hauntingly painful. This one of her sitting at the organ is one of them and the other is of her sitting in front of her guitar with Graham Nash sitting next to her. It appears that they were taken around the same time period. In both she appears to want to be anywhere other than where she is. I'm glad to see her much happier now!
