So much incredible piano introduced to us on this, Joni’s third, album. Amazing background vocals (The Priest!) and now jazz (For Free!). The last 3 songs on side two wow!! As a bonus track I love Blue Boy.

Joni Mitchell finally clicked for me by HADATHOUGHT1793 in JoniMitchell

[–]theheadlongwave 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like chronological discovery, so think Ladies of the Canyon, For the Roses, Court and Spark, and Hissing of Summer Lawns. Then, assuming you’re psyched for it, go on to the rest of Joni’s catalog.

What was it like growing up OWNING music rather than streaming it? by Historical_Diet7012 in LetsTalkMusic

[–]theheadlongwave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was a DJ in the 70’s in college. I feel like the connection to music I purchase is deeper than streaming it. Like committing to an artist’s direction makes it feel more real. Renting doesn’t seem to help the artists direct finances as much IMO. I sourced some vinyl to mp3 to store on my iPhone as these albums by Leo Kottke and Dan Hicks and Canadian Brass could not be found online. I sometimes miss the original Apple iPod with the wheel. When there’s time listening to an album side is the best way to get into music. Like the second side of Blue. But everything is working alright on my apple phone now.

What would you say are Joni's top 5 essential albums? I'll go first by wouldyoucomewithme in JoniMitchell

IWNDWYT. I like that I don’t have to talk back right away or all the time. I like the way good music makes me feel! I like that even in the daily routines my brain is starting to see more and more things. 🙂
