Synopses & Reviews
The first book to analyze Joni Mitchell's controversial life, career, songs and the strange times they so exactly chronicle.
Synopsis
Joni Mitchell's recorded work represents the dreams and fears of a whole generation -- from youthful idealism to a resigned, but still hopeful, maturity. Combining poetry, ecology, and sexual freedom, her lyrics all came with discreet musical backing from the cream of the rock aristocracy. Her pure voice still soars and glides, sexy and ethereal, combining folk, jazz and rock, but somehow creating a new category all of its own.
