Friday Night Music, June 28, 2013: Joni Mitchell at The Luminato Festival

Joni Mitchell sang three of her songs at the Luminato Festival in Toronto barely a week ago. She was up for it and she was wonderful. It was a tribute concert to commemorate her talent and to celebrate her 70th year of life. Unfortunately, this is all I have been able to find from Canada and from You Tube. True, the recordings are not necessarily perfect. But it’s to prove that she did sing. I have no doubt that the entire program will appear sometime later as a special show or on DVD. I’m just going to let the music speak for itself.

Got Damn Joni Mitchell looks a hundred years old. Anyway, I saw her in a doc this weekend and it was one of the best doc on the 60’s I have ever seen. It’s called, Hotel California: L.A. from the Byrds to the Eagles (BBC Documentary). Here’s the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EZmem1MKboU&list=WLD91A9B8F3955E938
