joni mitchell-"beginning of survival"-F911 on CD!

[skjpm]

For those who always thought it was the job of artists to observe and comment on society, you need this CD. This is a brilliant, searing, and maddening set of songs which rip apart modern American society. They should play this at all those concerts this October. Joni is prime for a comeback with this powerful set of songs.

I read about that CD a little while back and I'm glad you reminded me it was out there.

Thanks again!

that looks at our national nightmare. I love Joni!

with her soul and her songs. I've got to get her CD now.

6. Oh how I love that woman...

I have worshipped at the Altar of Joni Mitchell... back in the seventies she was my complete and utter idol! I'm so glad she is still relevant. She always will be.

7. This shows another side of Joni

While generally thought of as confessional, I love this particular CD because it shows her talent for social commentary.

Lord there's danger in this land
you get witch hunts and wars
when church and state join hands
fuck it!
tonight I'm going dancing
with the drag queens and the punks
big beat deliver me
from this sanctimonius skunk
we're no flaming angels
and he's not heaven-sent
how can he speak for the Prince of Peace
when he's hawk-right militant?

"Tax-Free"


Kinda scary, isn't it?

[Flubadubya]

8. Scary...

But soooo very Joni... Beauty! :loveya:
