It is great that Joni Mitchell is part of the repetoire of our jazz singers as the lyrics are incredible and she has a great jazz sensibility having worked with Mingus, Shorter, Hancock, Pastorius. I was interested to see in Lol Coxhill's obituary in the Guardian that he was apparently the inspiration for Mitchell's song 'For Free' when she saw him busking by Hungerford Bridge. Who says free jazz has no influence?

ps - Thanks to Cameron, Rebekah Brooks and the Leveson Inquiry we now know Coxhill's first name stands for 'laugh out loud' and not 'lots of love' - it seems to fit.
