JONI MITCHELL

when i was a girl, if we wanted to hear strong women singing their own songs, there wasn't a new one every week, like there is now. there were only laura nyro, carole king, and joni. first i heard judy collins singing "both sides now", then i heard about the woman who wrote that song. if there had never been joni, there would not be shawn colvin, sheryl crow, the indigos, (1998 UPDATE:  and paula cole, and sarah mclaughlin, etc, etc)  --


"Blue" is essential naked songmaking, from the ups of "carey" to the downs of the title song. how many years has it been, and i still can't get these songs out of my head.

TRACKS:  All I want; My old man; Little green; Carey; Blue; California; This flight tonight;  River; A case of you; The last time I saw Richard
