The first bit I heard was "singer/songwriter at Woodstock" which made me think of Joan Baez. But during the "back-n-forth, prompting, hints, nudge, nudge" Tones and the production booth must have been debating whether Joni was or wasn't at Woodstock. When Tones rephrased the question for the caller it became "Which female Canadian singer/songwriter released the albums Ladies in the Canyon, Blue and Court & Spark?"</p>
<p><br />
I'm more likely to ring up Tones and tell him that Jimmy Buffet is reggae for drunken lawyers.</p>Francis Xavier Holden commented on 'PAVED PARADISE, PUT UP A TOYTOWN'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341cb34453ef01287585bbe1970c2009-11-12T01:56:14Z2009-11-12T01:56:14ZFrancis Xavier Holdenhttp://landownunder.blogspot.com/We all know its the Medium Sized Yellow Taxi and if that's the only song you know then you probably...<p>We all know its the Medium Sized Yellow Taxi and if that's the only song you know then you probably wouldn't like Joni Mitchell.</p>
<p>Anyway - I thought the question was "What Canadian singer sang a song about it but never went to Woodstock" - or have I mixed up my nights and questions.</p>
<p>Tones music collection consists of Linda Ronstadt and Jimmy Buffett - he's a geuine fan - even called himself a Parrothead once. He plays "Pencil Thin Moustache" about once a month. I notice he never plays any of Buffet songs about smoking dope. </p>
<p>I'd suggestTony The Teach rings up and has a short banter on air with Tones the Quizta about how good Jimmy is - then requests "Why don't We Get Drunk and F***" - see how quick Delroy can hit the 7 second button.</p>
