Joni Mitchell and her interpreters come roaring back together.

Joni Mitchell Talks About Each Track On New CD, 'Shine'; Listen To Two Tracks. Starpulse News Blog offers If -- the Kipling poem set to music -- and Night of The Iguana in streaming QuickTime and WMA formats.

She says, "...I rewrote that part of the poem as 'If you can fill the journey/Of a minute/With 60 seconds worth of wonder and delight.' Kipling's version is macho; I wanted to get the feminine principle into the poetry."

The Joni Mitchell site has news also of an art show opening in Manhattan Sept. 25, the day Shine is released. You can hear the usual brief clips from the album at that Amazon link.
