RAR TUNE OF THE WEEK:
Tribute to a Young Artist - This
week's RAR original is a loving tribute to Joni Mitchell, though that is
actually young Kate Bush in the photo above. The bohemian call to arms
is shared in the swimming melodies and rhythms of youthful aspiration
and the beckoning of western frontiers. Click on the cover above to
listen to "Chelsea Girl".
