Title: Joni Mitchell archive Post by: dog-nap (Ian) on October 28, 2020, 04:56:31 PM The first volume of Joni Mitchell’s archive is finally being released in a couple of days, covering her early days on the folk club circuit. Pretty much everything is previously unreleased (officially, at least). Amazon is selling the 5-cd box set at £64.99. Has anyone seen it cheaper elsewhere? Burning Shed is slightly more expensive once p & p has been added.

To be perfectly honest I'm more interested in any following volume(s), but I could be tempted... https://www.theguardian.com/music/2020/oct/27/joni-mitchell-interview-archives-early-years-cameron-crowe?fbclid=IwAR2bQ5ceaIhNubhaMCbyqyIHmzY6EsdJC3sNuyqB32l-hUKy9n8Pr5Tu2UU

Very interesting. I don’t subscribe to any papers online, so I’m used to them fading away after a paragraph or two. She still does not sound convinced about the value of her early work, but I’ve heard a fair bit of it on various boots over the years and I have always enjoyed it. The lyrics of some of her early songs may be a bit iffy, but her singing and playing have always been astonishing. Besides, this set does include the period when Fairport started to take an interest in her work. There are a couple of versions of Eastern Rain on it, as I expect you have noticed. |
