Podcast appearances and mentions of David Yaffe

Det här är berättelsen om den kanadensiska sopranen med de hudlösa texterna, vars karriär byggde på en mörk hemlighet. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. En frän lukt av desinfektionsmedel hänger över det kala rummet. I en av sjukhussängarna ligger en utmattad 21-åring. Joan Anderson har nyss fött en dotter. Det är sen kväll den 19 februari 1965 och kölden har bitit sig fast i den kanadensiska storstaden Toronto. Inne på förlossningsavdelningen är atmosfären inte mycket varmare. Joans mage putar fortfarande och de ömmande brösten är hårt lindade för att förhindra mjölkproduktionen. Men det värsta är inte de fysiska smärtorna, utan sjuksköterskornas föraktfulla bemötande av henne. Pappan till barnet har stuckit för flera månader sen och att få barn utanför äktenskapet är en stor skam. Joan, som kallas för Joni, tar sin nyfödda dotter i famnen. Hon ser på den lilla flickan och håller hennes hand i sin. Trots att hon är pank och saknar både jobb och utbildning, är beslutet hon precis fattat långt ifrån enkelt.Dottern ska placeras i fostervård, men bara tills Joni kommit på fötter igen. De ska alldeles snart återförenas.Medverkande: Victor Hageman, Kristofer Anderson och Irma SchultzProgrammet är gjort av Anna Lillkung i februari 2024Producent Joanna KorbutiakExekutiv producent Lars TruedsonSlutmix Fredrik NilssonProgramledare Siri HillBöckerna Reckless Daughter: A Portrait of Joni Mitchell av David Yaffe och Girls like us av Sheila Weller har varit viktiga källor till den här dokumentären.Ljudklippen i programmet kommer från tv-dokumentären Joni Mitchell: Woman of heart and mind (PBS, 2003), tv-programmet Take 30 (CBC, 1967), en intervju gjord av journalisten Jian Ghomeshi (CBC, 2013), The Dick Cavett Show (ABC, 1969), CBS (1969), en inspelad intervju med Joni Mitchell gjord av författaren Joe Smith (1986, publicerad på hemsidan blankonblank.org), en inspelad intervju med Joni Mitchell gjord år 1985 (återgiven i podcasten Throw It Out, 2022), Facebook-kontot Joni Mitchell Fans, samt från Youtube-kontona Joni Mitchell, Brandi Carlile, Bob Dylan, Delphyne Radio, Newport Folk Festival, Victor Hageman, Sam28761 och Matt Warren.

Joni Mitchell's songs have soundtracked our lives and her pioneering work changed music forever. Jesca Hoop explores her extraordinary story to reveal the life behind the legend.In the first episode, we hear how young Joni loves to watch the trains go by from the window of her house in a Saskatchewan prairie town. Even as a child, there is a desire to see what's around the next bend. She's a tomboy and an athlete, until polio forces her into a period of convalescence; she's no longer picked first for sports teams but when she gets the use of her legs back she rock 'n' roll dances her way through her teens. Her childhood ambition is to be a painter, but when she finally makes it to art school everything changes....“I've always been a creature of change” – Joni MitchellThrough archive, fresh interviews, narration, immersive sound design and an original score, we trace the story of an extraordinary life and explore what makes Joni Mitchell a singular artist: the genius of her lyrics; her incredible talent as guitarist, painter and producer; and her restless drive for innovation.In Legend, we follow Joni from her ‘flatlander' childhood on the Canadian prairies, through the folk clubs of Toronto and Detroit, to a redwood cottage in L.A.'s Laurel Canyon, to a cave in Crete, to a deserted desert highway, to recording studios and stages around the world. From her earliest home recordings to masterpieces like Blue, Court and Spark, and Hejira, we explore some of the stories behind her best-loved songs and celebrate her remarkable return to live performance in 2023: “like seeing, in the wild, a rare bird long feared extinct” (Lindsay Zoladz).Our guide through the series is the California-born, Manchester-based musician, Jesca Hoop. Jesca speaks to musicians like Blake Mills, Allison Russell, Holly Laessig and Jess Wolfe, who have played alongside Joni, and we hear tributes from those, like musician John Grant, who have been inspired and influenced by her music. We also hear from friends, including Larry Klein and Graham Nash; and from music critics and biographers, including Ann Powers, David Yaffe, Lindsay Zoladz, Kate Mossman, Barney Hoskyns, Miles Grier and Jenn Pelly.The Joni Mitchell Story comes from the production team behind BBC Radio 4's award-winning podcast Soul Music – “… the gold standard for music podcasts…” (Esquire).Producers: Mair Bosworth and Eliza Lomas Production Coordinator: Andrew Lewis Editor: Chris Ledgard Story Editor: Emma Harding Story Consultant: John Yorke Sound Design and Original Music: Hannis Brown Studio Engineers: Ilse Lademann and Michael Harrison Commissioning Editor: Daniel Clarke

David Yaffe and Johnny Graettinger (both from Estuary) join the show to do a deep dive into streaming data processing. We also cover how to scale change data capture (CDC) and where transformations belong in data pipelines. Estuary: https://estuary.dev/ Gazette: https://gazette.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ Note - Joe's audio was having issues for this episode. Apologies.

Summary Batch vs. streaming is a long running debate in the world of data integration and transformation. Proponents of the streaming paradigm argue that stream processing engines can easily handle batched workloads, but the reverse isn't true. The batch world has been the default for years because of the complexities of running a reliable streaming system at scale. In order to remove that barrier, the team at Estuary have built the Gazette and Flow systems from the ground up to resolve the pain points of other streaming engines, while providing an intuitive interface for data and application engineers to build their streaming workflows. In this episode David Yaffe and Johnny Graettinger share the story behind the business and technology and how you can start using it today to build a real-time data lake without all of the headache. Announcements Hello and welcome to the Data Engineering Podcast, the show about modern data management RudderStack helps you build a customer data platform on your warehouse or data lake. Instead of trapping data in a black box, they enable you to easily collect customer data from the entire stack and build an identity graph on your warehouse, giving you full visibility and control. Their SDKs make event streaming from any app or website easy, and their extensive library of integrations enable you to automatically send data to hundreds of downstream tools. Sign up free at dataengineeringpodcast.com/rudderstack (https://www.dataengineeringpodcast.com/rudderstack) Your host is Tobias Macey and today I'm interviewing David Yaffe and Johnny Graettinger about using streaming data to build a real-time data lake and how Estuary gives you a single path to integrating and transforming your various sources Interview Introduction How did you get involved in the area of data management? Can you describe what Estuary is and the story behind it? Stream processing technologies have been around for around a decade. How would you characterize the current state of the ecosystem? What was missing in the ecosystem of streaming engines that motivated you to create a new one from scratch? With the growth in tools that are focused on batch-oriented data integration and transformation, what are the reasons that an organization should still invest in streaming? What is the comparative level of difficulty and support for these disparate paradigms? What is the impact of continuous data flows on dags/orchestration of transforms? What role do modern table formats have on the viability of real-time data lakes? Can you describe the architecture of your Flow platform? What are the core capabilities that you are optimizing for in its design? What is involved in getting Flow/Estuary deployed and integrated with an organization's data systems? What does the workflow look like for a team using Estuary? How does it impact the overall system architecture for a data platform as compared to other prevalent paradigms? How do you manage the translation of poll vs. push availability and best practices for API and other non-CDC sources? What are the most interesting, innovative, or unexpected ways that you have seen Estuary used? What are the most interesting, unexpected, or challenging lessons that you have learned while working on Estuary? When is Estuary the wrong choice? What do you have planned for the future of Estuary? Contact Info Dave Y (mailto:dave@estuary.dev) Johnny G (mailto:johnny@estuary.dev) Parting Question From your perspective, what is the biggest gap in the tooling or technology for data management today?

Hailed as one of premier interpreters of the Great American Songbook by both the New York Times and London's Classical Source, Oberlin was deeply honored to receive, in 2013, both the Mabel Mercer Foundation's most prestigious Donald F. Smith Award and an Honorary Doctorate in Music from Dix Hills Performing Arts Center/Five Towns College. She has also been the recipient of the Nightlife Award for Jazz Vocalist of the Year, a Bistro Award for Outstanding Achievement and multiple MAC Awards. Ms. Oberlin's recordings can be heard regularly on the legendary WNYC radio show hosted by Jonathan Schwartz, where he often sings her praises. This year Ms. Oberlin returns for her annual week performing at London's most exquisite cabaret club, the Crazy Coqs at Brasserie Zedel, following a return engagement in Paris, this time at Club RaYé. Quoting from among her many reviews in the New York Times, Stephen Holden says, "Beyond having a pretty voice, poise and interpretive insight... Ms. Oberlin has impeccable classic pop style (and) musical intelligence." Rex Reed, in the New York Observer, called her performance "thrilling," and continued, "Oberlin is as lovely to look at as she is to hear -- subtle, elegant and musically spot on... (Her performance) rings true and funny and flawless. She's a keeper!" The music critic, David Yaffe, says Ms. Oberlin "reaches into the minds and muses of our golden repertoire to teach us, dazzle us, and send us to a Tin Pan Alley nirvana, as deep as the ocean and high as the sky."

A new series of Soul Music begins with stories of Joni Mitchell's 'River', from her iconic 1971 album Blue. A song about the breakdown of a relationship and of a longing to be elsewhere that has become a melancholy Christmas anthem. It's coming on Christmas / They're cutting down trees / They're putting up reindeer / And singing songs of joy and peace / Oh I wish I had a river / I could skate away on.... Emotional true stories of what the song means to different people, including comedian Chris Forbes, who lost his father on Christmas Day; Isobel, who fell sick far from home and understands the longing to be elsewhere captured in the song; Laura, who heard the song while pregnant at Christmastime; writer Rob Crossan, who will forever associate the song with his first love; Canadian poet Lorna Crozier who describes the frozen rivers of her and Joni's Saskatchewan childhood; and from Joni Mitchell's biographer David Yaffe. Includes a rare live recording of 'River' from a BBC Concert in 1970, hosted by John Peel. The other versions of the song are by (in order of appearance) Joni Mitchell (Blue, 1971), Scott Matthews (Live Session for BBC 6 Music, 2011), Béla Fleck and the Flecktones (Jingle All the Way, 2008) and the Belgian indie choir Scala & Kolacny Brothers (Live Session for BBC 6 Music, 2011). Producer: Mair Bosworth

This episode Shelley and Christian review “Reckless Daughter: A Portrait of Joni Mitchell” by Professor David Yaffe. Consider this a companion to our interview with Professor Yaffe on Deeper Digs in Rock. Joni Mitchell may be the most influential female recording artist and composer of the late twentieth century. In Reckless Daughter, the music critic David Yaffe tells the remarkable, heart-wrenching story of how the blond girl with the guitar became a superstar of folk music in the 1960s, a key figure in the Laurel Canyon music scene of the 1970s, and the songwriter who spoke resonantly to, and for, audiences across the country. In this intimate biography, drawing on dozens of unprecedented in-person interviews with Mitchell, her childhood friends, and a cast of famous characters, Yaffe reveals the backstory behind the famous songs—from Mitchell’s youth in Canada, her bout with polio at age nine, and her early marriage and the child she gave up for adoption, through the love affairs that inspired masterpieces, and up to the present—and shows us why Mitchell has so enthralled her listeners, her lovers, and her friends. Reckless Daughter is the story of an artist and an era that have left an indelible mark on American music. Published in 2017 by SaraCrichton Books.

He’s the author of an acclaimed biography of Bob Dylan, and for his most recent book, he’s turned his attention to Joni Mitchell, tracing her life from her beginnings in rural Canada to her position in the upper echelon of creative artists.

Not everyone appreciates the tonalities, lyrics or even the shrieky voice of Canadian artist and musician Joni Mitchell but in a dusty class room in 1971 Lynne Truss decided she loved the writer of Woodstock, Big Yellow Taxi and Both Sides Now. It was a bond forged in the face of the frosty indifference of fellow pupils in Miss Cheverton's music class at the Tiffin Girls School in Kingston Upon Thames. Even Lynne is slightly mystified when she was asked who was her muse that, as a person mostly famous for writing a book on punctuation, she replied; Joni Mitchell. Lynne explores why a series of albums from Ladies of the Canyon to Heijra taking in Blue, Court and Spark and The Hissing of Summer lawns' has wrought such influence over so many. For her aficionados Joni Mitchell is more than a song writer. Lynne observes that for some the attachment goes beyond the personal; its a complete identification with the struggles of dealing with high emotion and how to cope. In the programme she speaks to the poet and playwright Liz Lochhead, the author Linda Grant, Elbow's front man Guy Garvey, her latest biographer the Syracuse University academic David Yaffe and Gina Foster the singer with the UK act Joni's Soul, which she insists is not a tribute but a celebration act. Lynne contends that despite at the time being overshadowed in favour of Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen, Paul Simon and others Joni Mitchell will come to be regarded as the greatest exponent of the art of singer-song writer from that era and concludes that what makes her a muse can be found less in the brilliant lyrical summations of eternal questions like love, loss and freedom but more in her absolute commitment never to compromise her art - to remain true, above all else, to her own muse.
