About Joni Mitchell
Joni Mitchell began performing in Canadian coffeehouses and nightclubs before releasing Song to a Seagull on Reprise in 1968. Her music drew on folk, jazz, classical music and rock while developing distinctive guitar tunings and flexible song structures. She also worked across arrangements, production and album artwork. Blue, Court and Spark and Hejira show different relationships between the solo voice and an ensemble. Later records continued that exploration, while her archival releases make earlier studio work and live performances available as separate parts of the catalog.
