hello
despite my age i am really really into Joni Mitchell. i know a little bit about her already and own three of her cd's: blue, Court and Spark and The Hissing of Summer Lawns.
i was wondering if any fans of joni could point in the direction of some other of her good albums, what are your favourites?
thanks
;D

*lol* looks like i know more about Joni than you, and i'm the one after advice  :P *lol*
thanks for the pointer on the website bobo. i shall check that out. there's another good joni site on http://jdml.com for those interested.
i guess what i'm really after through this thread though is your personal opinions on Joni herself and her music.
for you Reddy, you should try getting your hands on Joni's hits album, which is how i started listening to her.
if anyone knows of other good joni tracks and CD's then please let add them to this thread... power to Joni... sorry, i'm getting carried away here... *starting to ramble* ... thanks

The best Joni album out there is 1974's Inprint Court and Spark.

thank you.
i have that Cd.
it is fabulous!!
*down to you* is my favourite *hence my signature*
blue is also a very good album and very popular among the fans... well on jmdl.com it is top of the discussion list.
has anyone heard any of Joni's newer stuff from the late 80s early 90s?
i really like the tracks *Chinese Cafe* and *Come in from the Cold* which i believe are from the 1991 Album *Night Ride Home* if any one has hear the rest of the album can you let me know what its like
thanks

As for the album Night Ride Home, it's immediate, but apparently hard to listen to.

    All I know is, when I hear the song "Help me, I think I've fallen..." it makes me think of the commercial "Help, I've fallen, and I can't get up!"
