There is a jazzy tribute band called ‘Hejira’, which is touring at the moment. They sound rather good – I am going to see them next month. Not hard to guess what their favourite album is…

I like Joni's first three albums but she moved away from my sort of thing after that. But Blue was her fourth. Surely you don't consider that one an outlier? Jules |

Uncut are claiming this month Heijra is Joni's finest album, they're wrong it's Hissing Of Summer Lawns (I also have a soft spot for that double live album Sound And Sight?). Shadows and Light. Hissing and Shadows were my entry point to Joni...and also Jaco and and Pat Metheny. I went backwards from there, and then forwards up to Don Juan's. Before moving onto Mingus, I wanted to listen to his own stuff first, so I bought a classic albums set, but have yet to get round to listening to it. I have a couple of later tracks on Hits and Dreamland. I'd say....ALL of Joni's albums are her best. I agree. There isn't a bad Joni album out there, although Don Juan's Reckless Daughter comes under critical fire sometimes. I'm awaiting the new vinyl box comprising Hejira onwards. There are a couple of these I don't have on LP. Interesting that Don Juan will be in a redesigned sleeve. The original had Joni in blackface, which they worry will upset some folks nowadays. |

It's always been Blue for me, but I respect other choices.

I also feel the main problem this year is the underwhelming lineup. I will be there because it is Cropredy after all, but if I saw this prog yawnfest at any other festival I would definitely be giving it a wide berth! You’re a mate Bill , so I can do this. So you’re not really going to a fest. You’re going to afield to meet up with some mates and it doesn’t matter if there’s music on or not……? As for the meeting friends bit, that is a massive draw for me. There are many who we only see at this one festival and there is nothing that will ever match that Meet On The Ledge moment on the Saturday night. Talking of friends, it’s been far too long since we saw your good self! |
