Radio with Pictures - Joni Mitchell

definitely a major influence on myself and anyone else with ears, open tuned genius and lyrical poet

Forty years ago I was telling anyone who would listen this lady was pure brilliance- you'all still listening?

amazing, I remember this, my god! Night Ride Home ,what a song.

Wow. She is incredible. One of the greatest songwriters. Ever.

As a former sound engineer I remember using the Nagra a lot, and they certainly were a quality machine, especial at 15ips. This does sound like it has a small amount of well applied reverb. What a star!

J'adore Ms. Joni Mitchell, her voice, her esthetic, her honesty, intelligience, poetry and painting with words scenes of insight and depth of feeling...BRAVA to a graceful and gifted artist...gracis por todo musica...Pave Paradise and Put Up A Parking Lot...prescient prophetess of many ages and guide to times when biodiversity is at a crisis.

Hi Su - I work for NZ On Screen now (this website), but coincidentally I was the director of this piece many years ago when working for TVNZ. You mention the songs sounding very "produced" - and I wanted to comment on that. We had no idea she was going to perform for us. We were just a basic TV interview crew, and she happened to pick up her guitar and sing. But it was the days of film, so our soundman was recording onto one of the old-fashioned Nagra recorders, and they were amazing. But mostly I think it sounds so great because Joni is so great - just a beautiful clear singer. When she did Night Ride Home that was a completely new song to us, but of course it ended up the title track to her next album...

I think I will always love and admire Joni Mitchell

Why does this sound so produced? It sounds like it came right off the album... which was said to be recorded a couple of years later.

Suicidal child of 75, waiting for Armageddon, forbidden and outcast, looking for love, and found Court and Spark in a school library. You saved me. thank you

This is wonderful! Thank you from Toronto.

Most precious! Thank you!

Joni Mitchell has been one of my musical heroes for the better part of the last five decades… Oy vey, did I just say that? Well, she has!! Now she is, from what I hear, another hero of mine, just on a different level. I am a self diagnosed Morgellon's patient having been symptomatic for eight years. If there is any information that you've found valuable please forward to me at [email protected]. I'll peruse it while I'm listening to Ms. Mitchell's music!! Thank you. Peace and love to you and yours. Dawna-Jo Buchalter

Joni Mitchell's Music was the backdrop to our Student Lives from 1969 to 1973, and we still listen to her Words and Music, frequently,and named our Second Daughter Joni [now 30 years young] Residing now in Queenstown South Island.
Wish that Joni Mitchell would re visit the UK and do some performances and Interviews and show recent Art Works.

.

One of my all time favorite composers, singers, and musicians...She still resonates as strongly through me today as the very first time I heard her several decades ago...

As I look across this room, I see the one and only record album that I keep as a prized piece of art...."For the Roses". That's how much Joni Mitchell means to me.

THANK YOU JONI .. WONDERFUL ..
PEACE AND LOVE
