- I've recently purchased the new tribute to Joni Mitchell compilation called
- _Back to the Garden_. It was assembled in Canada and all contributing artists
- are Canadian. It's definitely a keeper! Here's the track listing:
-
- Free Man in Paris - Big Faith
- This Flight Tonight - Sara Craig
- Carey - Universal Honey
- Big Yellow Taxi - Lorraine Scott
- Black Crow - Molly Johnson
- The Beat of Black Wings - Andy Stochansky
- Shades of Scarlett Conquering - Martha & the Muffins
- The Hissing of Summer Lawns - Funky Bummer
- River - Hugh Marsh et. al
- You Turn Me On I'm a Radio - Kurt Swinghammer
- Coyote - Spirit of the West
- Woodstock - W.O.W.
- Night in the City - Jenny Whiteley
- A Case of You - Sloan
- Blonde in the Bleachers - Squiddly
- Songs to Aging Children Come - Cody & Jones
- Refuge of the Road - Rocket Science
-
- All the tunes are done well except "Big Yellow..." (inapropropriately turned
- into a soul tune) and "You Turn Me On..." (converted into a high speed country
- polka - blech). My faves: "The Beat of Black Wings", "Coyote", "Woodstock",
- "River", "Refuge of the Road".
