Sheila Weller has written quite an information packed book about the Journey of a Generation. I've only read 60 pages of a book that is plus 500 pages. There are many details and it entails the mention of other music makers of this generation of ladies. I happened to be growing up about this time; therefore, it's fun to read. I bought my book at Barnes and Noble because I have a membership. It wasn't available at Costco. Try it and you'll like it I bet!

I have the book (got it as a recent birthday gift) but I haven't yet started reading it. I got intrigued to ask for the book when I saw an article in The Detroit News, and it mentioned that Joni Mitchell had lived in Detroit for a while and actually wrote some of her most famous songs here in Michigan!

Yes Coda, and Joni had a romances going with many, but one was Leonard Cohen and I know that you recently saw him, or I have you confused with someone else. Guess what? The subject for one of her best ever songs, "A Case if You" was Leonard Cohen. I'll think of that every time I hear it. I wonder if Diana knows that.
I'm still just half through the book, but it is excellent.

Hi, Char. I started reading the book and I hope to finish it while our family is camping next week. I'm really enjoying the book so far. Sheila Weller has a compelling plan for telling the stories of the three musicians.

I haven't yet met Leonard Cohen, but I had no idea that he's the one for "A Case of You." Very intriguing!

I've read further into the book and it says that "A Case of You" is actually about two men: Leonard Cohen and James Taylor!
