From WAY back in the day. This song always resonated with me musically. And also as someone who's struggled with and conquered drug addiction, this really is pretty amazing. We got the Joni selling it and .... some really STUPID amazing 12-string and Sax...... I just thought I'd share with y'all....

happy weekend boys and girls..... :encouragement:

Thanks Tom. Joni's "For the Roses" album spent a lot of time on my turntable back in 72/73. The 12-string with slide on Cold Blue Steel and Sweet Fire always captured my ear.

Great song! She is the definition of an "original". The work she has done, the quality, and the directions it has taken, is really quite astounding.

And if you want to figure out the tunings, and see some transcriptions, Ms. Mitchell's site contains a wealth of information. Start here.
