Intro to Joni Mitchell cd: 2015

Okay so last December we all chipped in to compile an "introduction to Joni Mitchell" playlist.

This is what I said.

I have since realized why the "Hits" and "Misses" cds were made the way they were, and Blue is an important album not just to her catalog, but pop music songwriting in general.

Time to revisit?

Can't argue with those choices, especially "Help Me" and those from Blue.

Nothing from Taming The Tiger (I wish she'd went with the original title of "Face Lift"! lol) or Shine?

I think the tracks "Man From Mars", "Crazy Cries of Love", "Shine", and "If" deserve consideration...

Looks good. I would add "Amelia" and "Shades of Scarlett Conquering".

I think "River" should be on there. Joni herself is very proud of "Cherokee Louise".

My ACTUAL intro to Joni Mitchell was this video clip that MuchMusic used to play on the daily, back in 1985.

Thank you for weighing in. I haven't really mentally sorted those albums into her body of work, though I've had them both on CD for ages.
