Happy Birthday Bonnie Raitt (b. 11/8/1949) and Mitchell too

[TimmyB]

Happy 56th Birthday Bonnie,

May you have many, many more in health and happiness.

Bonnie is one of my all time favorite ladies in the music industry, yet I forgot to mention yesterday the birthday of my all time favorite lady in music, Joni Mitchell

So here's a Happy Belated 62nd Birthday Joni,

May you also have many, many more in health and happiness. And after reading the July 2005 Reader's Digest article on Joni today, she really needs the wish I gave her as she just doesn't seem like a very happy lady.

So critical of the world, and even if justified, her criticisms are keeping her from being inspired to write new material, which I find so sad.

Put down the cigarettes Joni and pick up a pen, angry or not, your music will still teach us more than nearly anyone else on the music scene now.
