Spot Light Joni Mitchel "Songs To A Seagul" 
Before taxi cab and paved paradise there was joni's freshman release, I think this by far has got to be one of joni's masterpieces, I think the best thing about this album is the complex lyrics Personally as a song writer, Joni is up their in the top Complex Syllable structures yet it doesn't lose its poetic feel I Had a king and michael from the mountains beautifully written [Edited 10/14/04 8:54am] | |

This album will probably always be my favourite and I am always amazed at how overlooked it is on this site. Cactus Tree, Michael From Mountains and Dawntreader are highlights for me. She creates a poignant and beautiful tapestry of emotional longing that always brings me to tears. | |

Great album. But not one of my Joni Favorites. These are: Hissing of Summer Lawns, For the Roses, Ladies of the Canyon and of course Hejira.
Cactus Tree is one of her very best Songs though. I just love the guitar-intro of that song.. | |

My older sister was named after a Joni Mitchell song, Chelsea Morning.
But my sister will never admit it  | |

I have a few Joni albums but have to get some of her older stuff. I love the albums w/Jaco playing bass. I will do today what you won't, so tomorrow I can do what you can't. | |

Critics, fans, etc. It's not one of her more acclaimed works. But I don't understand it either. I've heard enough of her to know that it's my favorite so far. | |
