The Longest Johns / The Wellerman
According to a piece on Radio 4 this song went viral during lockdown. Passed me by completely, but then I've never been a great one for sea shanties despite growing up four miles from the coast. Maybe it'll float your boat? |

Joni Mitchell -- Big Yellow Taxi
Joni was born in Fort McLeod, Alberta, just south of my hometown of Calgary. I've never met her even though she has recorded in the studio I've since inherited. We own adjacent properties just north of the US border... she has written songs for countless other influential artists that made them what they are today, including 2 of my favorites Gordon Lightfoot and Judy Collins.  She has received many accolades, including nine Grammy Awards and induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1997. Rolling Stone called her "one of the greatest songwriters ever", and AllMusic.has stated, "When the dust settles, Joni Mitchell may stand as the most important and influential female recording artist of the late 20th century". |

One more thing about the previous post...
Last new years eve I had to move my bash out of Edmonton because of COVID-19 restrictions so we set up a temporary structure complete with stage and lighting for Nazareth to play on. They ended up playing for over 8 hours all total with breaks. The interesting part is that it was adjacent to Joni's property and if you are familiar, Joni wrote This Flight Tonight and they performed it that night. I pointed out the proximity thing to the guys in the band and they were floored. |

Joan Baez / The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down
You know you're in the presence of a songwriting masterpiece when the first two words encapsulate the sweeping majesty and contradiction at the heart of the song ... Virgil Caine. The writer of imperial Rome's national epic (Aeneid), the birth of its nation, is conjoined with the archetypical slayer of a brother. Brilliant symbolism. [Apologies to those who'd already drawn this conclusion]. |
