"SPANKING JONI MITCHELL" is based on a true incident. See page 230 of the book published in April 2008 by New York Times best seller author Sheila Weller "GIRLS LIKE US: CAROLE KING, JONI MITCHELL, CARLY SIMON—AND THE JOURNEY OF A GENERATION:


"At some point after Joni returned... in the early winter of 1966-67, Chuck confronted her (Chuck Mitchell her husband)...This wasn't the first time he'd shown his young wife his anger and insecurity... "I got paranoid, and all this garbage was coming out [in my mind] about my trying to control Joni and my resentment "of her success" and "my fear of losing her...she said, 'You're bringing me down," Chuck admits. He repeatedly asked her if she'd had an affair. She challenged his right to ask the question. She said something like 'Well, what if I did?'"...Joni was so angry at Chuck's possessiveness. ("She'd always say, 'Don't be possessive!'")..." And then, Chuck recalls: "I TURNED HER OVER MY KNEE AND SPANKED HER."
