Subject: Joni featured in latest _Goldmine_
To: Love-Hounds@uunet.uu.net
Hi everyone, No arguments here: One of folk and rock's premier singer/songwriters is given her just due. The latest _Goldmine_ magazine (cover date 2-17-95) features the great Joni Mitchell. She graces the cover (a very nice picture!), and the article (written by William Rulhmann, a closet Tori-fan?) is richly illustrated and is very detailed in typical quality _Goldmine_ fashion. [I dare say] Joni Mitchell's singing and songwriting has had as much an effect on my life as Kate Bush has (--OOH, did he really type that!!??). Oh yes. My "formative years" happened to coincide with the whole hippie 'thang and music has been a definite influence. With Joni, I'm talking consistent quality, dedication, and love of the craft. Yeah, there have been a couple of weaker albums in recent years, but think about it: isn't is a thrill that she is still alive and well? She even does her own artwork. :-) Anyway, I recommend this issue highly.
