Read Janis' follow up to this article: FALLOUT - a follow up to The Internet Debacle "The Internet, and downloading, are here to stay... Anyone who thinks otherwise should prepare themselves to end up on the slagheap of history." (Janis Ian during a live European radio interview, 9-1-98) *Please see author's note at end! When I research an article, I normally send 30 or so emails to friends and acquaintances asking for opinions and anecdotes. I usually receive 10-20 in reply. But not so on this subject! I sent 36 emails requesting opinions and facts on free music downloading from the Net. I stated that I planned to adopt the viewpoint of devil's advocate: free Internet downloads are good for the music industry and its artists. I've received, to date, over 300 replies, every single one from someone legitimately "in the music business." What's more interesting than the emails are the phone calls. I don't know anyone at NARAS (home of the Grammy Awards), and I know Hilary Rosen (head of rhe Recording Industry Association of America, or RIAA) only vaguely. Yet within 24 hours of sending my original email, I'd received two messages from Rosen and four from NARAS requesting that I call to "discuss the article."
Extractions: Artist: "JANIS IAN" Title: "HUNGER" Label: Windham Hill Release Date: Rating: Born in 1951, "Janis Ian," like many of us, grew up in that hippie world of "free love" and "peace," but even at the age of 15 was able to stick a pin in the side of an uptight society with her ballad of interracial love, "Society's Child." Looking back at that time Janis jokingly says, "I made the right wing unhappy singing about dating the wrong kind of people. I made the left wing unhappy because I ended the relationship and made the folk world unhappy because I used drums on the record!" It wasn't as humorous back then, but it launched a career that spans thirty years, with Grammy nominations in all four decades from the 60's to the 90's. Her first self-titled album came out in 1967 and garnered her the first of nine Grammy nominations. The seventies saw three albums, "Stars," "Between The Lines," and "Aftertones." The first gave us "Jesse" which Roberta Flack turned into a charttopper, the second produced "At Seventeen" and her first Grammy. The third gave us Janis in the company of Phoebe Snow and Odetta, a trio of critically acclaimed songbirds.

The Internet Debacle By Janis Ian OF GUITARS RIGHTEOUS MEN by Janis Ian http//www.JanisIan.com. One day anotherperformer mentioned that it was a Martin D18; when I got home I said Dad! http://www.acousticfingerstyle.com/RighteousMen.htm
Extractions: But the worst kind of thief is the man who steals your soul" It started with my father, who made the transition from chicken farmer to music teacher when I was around three. Actually, it started with his membership in various socialist organizations, since he needed a guitar to take to the meetings when he led them in singing. No, I guess it started before that, when he bought The Guitar. He bought it in 1948 from the widow of a farmer who'd had it laying around in her attic for years. When she asked what he thought it was worth, he replied "I dunno - 25 bucks?" He brought it home three years before I was born, and began learning to play. It was rural New Jersey; there weren't exactly a lot of other guitarists around. He got a Pete Seeger book with chord diagrams, subscribed to Sing Out!, and we were on our way. I grew up with that guitar. It was miles too big for me, a colorful, beat-up window into another world. My small fingers could barely get around the neck. As I began learning chords, I discovered new ways of fingering them to compensate for my size. To this day I play a D chord "wrong", but it works for me. The Guitar went everywhere - to summer camp, where my father obtained 8-week stays for us by teaching music for nothing; to my grandparent's, where we went every weekend to pick up groceries from my grandfather the bagger. It went with him to work, it went with us to play.

Advertise with Us music Janis Ian discusses the Internet, aging, sexuality and life under the gaze of the FBI. by Mary Armstrong Janis Ian Foxes God and the FBI (Windham Hill), is a scathing look not only at her own file as revealed, albeit in expurgated form, but also the very long ones that were kept on her parents. The song has an ornery groove, telling just what she learned about what they learned, delivered in incredulous rhyme. For having the temerity to believe in civil rights, her folks were snooped on for enough years to prevent her father from ever winning tenure as a teacher. www.janisian.com . In addition to writing articulate and moving lyrics, Ian has written a vast number of magazine pieces, which are posted on the site. Some are biographical, some are whimsically political and others are practical good advice for people who want to follow her into the singer/songwriter trade.

Extractions: My great grandfather was an accomplished pianist. So was my mother. She got me started with piano lessons at the age of four, guitar at eight...and inspired by her, I have had a true love for music of all kinds throughout my life. First there were recitals, then gigs at the local YMCA with a rock band during high school, then my thumb and the highway at seventeen. I play music because I love music, and sharing it makes me love it even more. I have performed to over a million people in the past thirty years. What a ride it's been. Before the Internet, cassette tapes and CDs, being a traveling musician wasn't much more glamorous than being a truck driver. You drove, you stopped, you played, you drove some more. You'd call ahead a few weeks in advance (now it's years), talk to some club owner about dates, time and pay, and you just showed up. You didn't make a lot of money, but it was fertile ground for new songs, and the songs kept you driving. I come from that life. I played a little cross-country circuit for years ... Michigan, Colorado and Texas - the midwest. I hitch-hiked, rode the trains and planes and used up a dozen cars and vans over the years. I played in bars, restaurants, night-clubs, strip-joints, coffeehouses, festivals, carnivals, county fairs and health food stores. I played anywhere to anyone who'd have me.

Extractions: English and Art were her favourite subjects, and a trip to the Tate Gallery in London with her school aged 15, confirmed that Cornelia wanted to be an artist. After studying art at college, Cornelia turned her hand to sculpture, inspired by the Arte Povera movement in Italy which rejected traditional marble and bronze and used any materials they chose. She developed her style by mixing with other students and collaborating with theatre groups. Cornelia liked the idea of her work being ephemeral and didnt worry about its existence beyond an exhibition. For her first solo exhibition in 1980 she showed a number of pieces and because she had nowhere to store them, told the organisers that afterwards they could give them to local schools. I dont know what they did with them! she says.
