Wow it's such a great song. Too bad it didn't go on an album.

David Crosby's favorite songwriter, whose first album he produced.
Graham Nash, who once lived with her, said that when she was writing, it was
like watching someone "channeling"; she was subjectively preoccupied until
the song was finished.

Thanks for posting this club date version of the song. If you know, where and when was this recorded? It sounds circa 68 or 69 when she was heavy into doing club dates all up and down the east coast of the US. LIstening to Joni is like listening to Beethoven no matter how many timesteh same music remains fresh and each performance gives the opportunity to experience a different facet of its sparkle.
