Joni has picked up another Grammy award, this time for Best Pop Instrumental Performance for the song "One Week Last Summer." Joni was not in attendance to pick up the award, but did receive kudos from Herbie Hancock, who surprisingly took the Best Album of The Year award with his tribute disc to Joni, "River: The Joni Letters." "First of all I want to thank Joni Mitchell, with her incredible words and music," Hancock said in his acceptance speech before turning to a list that started with his mother and father, and included participating vocalist Leonard Cohen.
