The August 19th issue of Rolling Stone magazine has a short write-up on the "Joni's Jazz" concert (which occured on July 1st) in it's "Random Notes" column. Duncan Sheik is quoted as saying about Joni: "I know she's completely uncompromising. I'm sure she was happy about some things and unhappy about others. But I saw her at the end of the show, and she was glowing and totally moved by the whole thing." (Photo by David Atlas)

"The 100 Greatest Women Of Rock'N'Roll" countdown, which VH-1 has been airing every night this week at 10PM, winds up tomorrow with it's final episode, and this is the one that features Joni. She's sandwiched between Bonnie Raitt and Billie Holiday, coming in at #5 in this survey, which IMHO is quite good. Catch it on the video music channel at 10PM Friday (the 30th). I understand that the program will be re-broadcast at least once this weekend in one complete 5-hour block. So if you've missed any of the countdown, you can catch it on the repeat.
