Joni knew what was happening and going to happen all those years ago. Lovely, hugely talented lady, great song - I looked and listened hard at and to both of them as a teenager all those years ago....

The day Blue came out I memorised half of it. That night I used a chat-up line to a lady, I told her "...you are as constant as the Northern Star..." - to which she replied "Constantly in the darkness, if you want me I'll be in the bar.." We've been best mates ever since.

Years ago I found an old Dansette record player in pretty good condition.
The motor died a few years back.
I loved the big warm sound it gave my old 45s -one of which was Big Yellow Taxi.
It would jump out of the speaker and punch you in the face.
Must buy a replacement.
