  • Joanna Newsom!

  • I dug her "In My Own Time" out of the $1.00 discard bin at Woolco about 40 years ago - bought it on the strength of the backup musicians - and it has been with me all these years. Wore that LP out playing it, got another after a long, long search - now have it burned off to CD. Even after all these years, her voice can still give me the big ache, bring me to tears, and then that feeling of joy...never been anyone like her, never will be...

  • yo this shit is HOT!!

  • @TJTele He is obviously a pretty fair picker..But I think it's a mistake for him to play on top

    of her vocal so much... it 's a bit distracting. To me a good accompanist stays out of the

    singer's way.. he seems a little bit IN the way here... just my opinion.... but Hey !!! NICE tune...

    well sung.. good bass playing.

  • I saw Karen with Monte Dunn on guitar and that sounds like who's playing here opening for Fred Neil, and I think Fred is on this cut as well...Monte Dunn played guitar for Fred Neil as well...it was the night Fred's Live side of his Dolphins album was recorded in Woodstock NY at the Elephant...

  • She's mentioned in the movie "Greenberg."

  • She was Bob Dylans favourite singer in NewYork when he was a folkclub singer

    trying to make a name for himself. She never made it as Dylan did - and she went on to become a drug addict and lived on the streets of NY city before dying of ill health. Many people are rediscovering her music today - and she is often name dropped by famous artists. Bob Dylans mentioning of her name in his Autobiography - 'Chronicals 1' has helped to bring a new generation of fans to her much missed music.

  • She' so brilliant - wonder why we didn't get to know more of her .- wonderfu!!!!!

  • @marie7475 : Actually it is. And the 'melancholiest' too.
