What's the cheapest, most frequently used method of changing moods and feelings, picking yourself up or getting thoughtful, forgetting it all or drowning in self-pity? If you said greens and reds, do not pass go, do not collect $200, because it's music. Radios and record players are really manipulators of mood and attitude, if you let them be. With the radio, you're at the whim of some disc jockey who's been told to play mostly forget-your-troubles music. So people who want complete control over the mood usually turn to their stereos, and that's where Joni Mitchell comes in. Her first four albums (Song to a Seagull, Clouds, Ladies of the Canyon and Blue) represent an intensely personal experience. She used almost no backup at all, so it's just you listening and Joni pouring her heart out in your living room. Most of the things she has to say in these albums are either depressing, thoughtful, or deeply emotional. And most importantly, there are overtones of sadness, of pessimism, of loneliness, and they leave their impression on you. . So if you wanted to get depressed, emotional, or challenged into thought, you spun a Joni Mitchell album. This understandably created a small but die-hard o nnPTT o o o o o o o r; m . o o o Drama- The Red Pony 8:30 (4) North Carolina This Week (5) (8) Jacques Cousteau (1 1) Good Times 9:00 (2) (1 1) Movie: Senior Year (4) Movie: Grand Illusion 9:30 (5) (8) Odd Couple 10:00 (5) (8) Toma (28) Dean Martin 10:30 (2) (11) Comedy Pilot Special c e c c c c c c 11:00 (2) (5) News (8) (11) News (28) News 11:30 (2) (1 1 ) Movie: Scream and Scream Again (5) (8) Screaming Skull 1 :00 c c (28) Johnny Carson (28) Midnight Special CHILDREN, CAT WILL BE SEATED 4 FCHOLOGICAL PR06LEM5.'

At least not very often. Enter album five, For the Roses. Good news for people previously turned off by her music the new record is not nearly as depressing and is not as much of a personal challenge to the listener. Even though the music is more accessible, the emotionality remains, with overtones of pessimism and a sort of sadness that things turn out as badly as they do in love. Now, the latest, Court and Spark. Good news for everybody. This is the tightest, most ambitious album musically to come along in a while from anybody. For you Joni Mitchell freaks, a little bit of everything she's ever done right is in this album, along with some new directions. The diversity of the album is its most outstanding characteristic. Scott Langley Last The Last Detail Tale of two sailors taking a third to prison. A marvelously robust and human film, both funny and sad, with an unusual understanding of certain types of emotions. Superlative acting. CH The Sting Con comedy is itself a con with some pretty moldy material being turned into excellent entertainment by some talented hands. It's too big and tends to drown in overproduction, but it's a sure fire audience pleaser. CH, D Serpico True story of an honest cop. It is sloppily done and much too vulgarized. Still, the film has an understanding of some of the subtleties of corruption, and the story itself packs quite a punch. Worth seeing for that. D The Exorcist William Friedkin brings to this devil film the same slam-bang direction he brought to The French Connection. Some of it is effective at the moment, but the film as .a whole is pure manipulative trash. Disgusting in more ways than one. CH, D, R Late Show Fri. & Sat. 11:15 p.m. J " - . .. i ' " .

Two of the album's best songs would be nothing without the excellent trumpet of Chuck Findley. And JonPs choice of layed back, subtle percussion work from John Guerin, and big, driving bass lines mostly from Wilton Felder are the cement that holds the whole album together. Backup vocals come from a group ranging from Jose Feliciano to David Crosby to Ch'eech & Chong, plus Joni overtracking time and again. The whole sound is smooth and together, with things going on below the surface as well as in the lyrics. And the lyrics of Court and Spark represent some of the new directions for Joni Mitchell. There are two songs for fun a Detail' Summer Wishes, Winter Dreams Story of a cold woman thawing. Has a few touching moments (mainly due to another superb performance from Joanne Woodward), but the film as a whole is cliched soap opera stuffed with pseudo poetry. A great performance from Sylvia Sidney. CH Billy Jack One more time we are subjected to the mushy brained homilies of this stupid movie. For the teeny-boppers, of whom there must be an awful lot. D, R Cinderella Liberty Sappy story of a sailor in love with a prostitute. The actors, especially James Caan, supply some moments of enlightenment, but the film still falls completely apart.

Of all the things in Joni Mitchell's earlier works, everything is there in Court and Spark except the pessimism. You get the feeling, in the midst of her questions, that maybe even she now feels there can be answers. mo Neither the Sea Nor the Sand Poor supernatural love story.
