“I didn’t want anyone to know it was me”: on being Joni Mitchell’s “Carey”

For 50 years, the “mean old daddy” immortalised in one of Mitchell’s best-loved songs has been an enigma. Now he tells his side of the story.

Thank you very much.
Saw her live once. It was after she started into the jazz sphere. Jaco Pastorius played bass.
A joint came down the row. I took a puff and was wiped out. Had never known such strong stuff. Smiler
Have listened to Blue, Court and Spark, and Big Yellow Taxi many times.
Have not thought of myself as a pop music fan. I was at one time.
Mingus was a milestone album. I like it. Ignorant of jazz. I did not continue buying her music. I should have and may correct that soon.
