You know, was never big on American 'folk rock' like Dylan, Biaz? ect ect...


But theres always been one exception to that, Joni Mitchell. When I was little, there was a time when we were traveling in a buss my dad converted into a motor home, and it had an 8 track, and there were 4 tapes of interest, belonged to my older siblings, and they formed the basis of my musical tastes. They were


1. James Gang - James Gang Rides Again
2. Moody Blues - A Question Of Balance
3. Emerson Lake And Palmer - Tarkus*****

and

4. Joni Mitchell - Court And Spark

Still love all 4, and with all have explored the crux of their works. Currently I am so so so so fixated on Joni Mitchell - The Hissing Of Summer Lawns. The voice, so sweet, the music, so melodic. A true songwriter, she tells storys and tales that make sense, takes you places, through emotions, through lifes.

I also listened to all the shit that was on pop radio, and shit my parents liked and played like Tiuana Brass and Mancini.
