Wikipedia's entry on Joni Mitchell

Comparisons:

She's the one other artists are compared to. Most folk and pop artists owe a debt to her pioneering work with folk, jazz, and pop music.

Covers/own material:

Own—she's one of the most noted songwriters of the '60s, '70s, '80s, and '90s. Does occasional jazz covers and collaborations.

General comments:

The woman with the guitar like none other and the courage to forge her own path. (fleur)

Joni Mitchell is a perfect example of great explicit songwriting that doesn't come across as either dull or preachy. Not every song is completely clear in terms of what she's singing about, but so many of them are. I think of some of the songs on For the Roses and Court and Spark (my two personal favorites of hers)—such clearly drawn stories and thoughts, but full of wonderful images and metaphors and evocative atmosphere. (jwermont@sonic.net)

Even though Joni is primarily known for her singing and songwriting, she is a very inventive guitarist. She makes wonderful use of alternate tunings in her music. She does some very interesting and intricate finger picking on some of her songs. She also explores interesting harmonic territory on her jazzier outings. (wpm@value.net)

My favourite period of Joni Mitchell's music is the middle, folky-jazzy period. I also like her earlier folk albums, but don't care enough about her recent albums to buy them so far, but I've gradually been filling in my back catalogue of her music after I started with Court and Spark as a teenager but ignored her until discovered the amazing Hejira when I was in my 20s. After that I kept up with her until she turned toward more mainstream pop music with Wild Things Run Fast and Dog Eat Dog. (Neile)

Joni is a frustrating case of being frozen in the public consciousness, because she has continually been producing AMAZING work all along and yet the public talks about her as if she were already dead. (Joni has said these exact words on occasion.) When someone says they recently became a Joni Mitchell fan, that means a friend recommended Court and Spark, not that they're in even remotely in touch with what the artist is ACTUALLY doing nowadays. My point about Joni is that she made leaps and bounds in lyric writing after 1971, creating some of the most lyrically beautiful and most intriguing, poetic songs ever written; I still do consider her to be the best lyricist in popular music. (hotel_america@hotmail.com)

Recommended first album:

Shadows and Light for a live collection of her folky jazzy period, Hejira for the best of that, or Court and Spark for the transition from her folk to more jazz-influenced music. Turbulent Indigo seems to be the best-liked of her more recent works.
     If you just want a survey of her work, you wouldn't do too badly to pick up her two live discs, Miles Of Aisles and Shadows And Light and the two compilations, Hits and Misses. There will be some duplications and omissions but you'll get an idea of the range of her career. (Neile)

Comments:

Joni Mitchell's first, eponymous album is a wonderful debut, showing the richness of her songwriting skills and her vocal talent. Already the songs show her magical touch with lyrics that seem both personal and universal, and that create indelible moods, ranging from longing ("Michael From Mountains" to exuberance ("Night in the City") to loss ("Marcie") to magic ("The Dawntreader"). Each song has a unique personality. A classic. (Neile)

Comments:

In sound very like Joni Mitchell, this is a beautiful, emotive collection of songs with such classics as "Chelsea Morning", and "Both Side, Now", songs that many of us grew up with. The album is worth exploring for the lesser-known songs, too, like "That Song About The Midway" (which reminds me of her later work in albums like Hejira), well, heck, for the whole collections of songs. Another classic, with a sense of personal depth rare in folk music. (Neile)

Comments:

Has three of her biggest "hits": "Big Yellow Taxi", "The Circle Game" and "Woodstock". She's still in her folk mode, but the songs are getting a lot more pop-influenced. Not my favourite of her early albums, but it still has wonderful moments. (Neile)

Comments:

A classic and an essential album for Joni fans. This is one of the first more jazz-influenced collections of her music, though it still falls solidly in the folk camp. This is an album of classic songs like "This Flight Tonight", "Carey", "California", "A Case of You"—you could list every song on this album. "The Last Time I Saw Richard" is one of Joni Mitchell's classic songs that sounds as though it comes directly from her life—that sense of honesty is magical. (Neile)

Just plain wonderful songs. A Desert Island Disc for me. (dlw@sympatico.ca)

This is one her Joni Mitchell's more confessional collections—several of the songs seem very personal but some are just fun. Has some classic songs, as well as her version of "Twisted." A classic album as a whole. (Neile)

"Same Situation" is my all-time favourite Joni tune. (JavaHo@aol.com)

It was the first Joni album I owned, and it's probably still my favorite...every song is a pop masterpiece, and the album works SO well as a cohesive whole. However, while I think these are probably some of Joni's best songs, I prefer the more esoteric lyrics of The Hissing of Summer Lawns and Hejira. (hotel_america@hotmail.com)

Comments:

This is an album conceived as a whole piece, and is a more serious collection of songs than any of her previous albums. Though there are some fun songs, like "In France They Kiss on Main Street" most are moodier, haunting, like "Edith and the Kingpin" and the title song. An amazing work, full of impressionistic lyrics that paint strong emotional indictments but also a celebration of love. (Neile)

Comments:

Hejira has the best lyrics of any album ever. (afinney@ozonline.com.au)

Hejira is a stark collection of confessional roadsongs, painted in the wintry tones of an upright bass and a skeletal, sketchy guitar lines. It's literary, absorbed, each word as considered as the cut a jeweller makes to perfect his creation. This album is one of the cornerstones of my tastes and sensibilities. A masterpiece. (ethereal_lad@livejournal.com))

Yes, it's a masterpiece—I can't recommend this album enough. Every song on it is powerful and intricate. The sound this album creates is wonderful, as are the lyrics. "Song for Sharon" is one of the most affecting songs I have ever heard about women's lives and choices. (Neile)

Not as good as some of her other stuff, but hey that still makes it pretty darn good; I find it a bit too repetitive. (mjmjminla@yahoo.com)

I'm slowly trying to get all of her albums, but I had to start here—for Jaco Pastorius' bass if nothing else. Wow. This is an all-time classic album. (meth@smoe.org)

Hejira is one of my favorite albums of all time. (valrichardson@igc.org)

Wonderful work on this double album. I have a vague feeling that the vinyl version I used to have was longer than this, but this still holds together, and has stood the test of time. Has wonderful material on it, like "Talk To Me" and "Dreamland", songs you want to play and keep playing. (Neile)

Comments:

This is Joni Mitchell and Charles Mingus' tribute to each other, and most of the music is his (all except "God Must Be A Boogie Man"and "The Wolf That Lives in Lindsey"), while Joni wrote all the lyrics. There's a lot of fun stuff here, but it may be too jazzy for a lot of pop lovers. It took a while to grow on me, but now I love it. (Neile)

Comments:

Recorded live at a concert in California in 1979. The cd is missing 3 cuts that were on the double vinyl album ("Black Crow", "Don's solo", and "Free Man in Paris"). The musicians backing her are some of the best contemporary jazz players around, and so this is a delightful live collaboration on a wonderful period of Joni's musical career. This is highly recommended if you want a sampler of this phase of Joni Mitchell's career. (Neile)

This has some catchy songs on it and some strong political commentary (like "The Three Great Stimulants", but like Wild Things Run Fast I basically find it more pop than my tastes run, with songs like "Lucky Girl". It's just not a sound that I like to hear that much. (Neile)

I finally decided that these songs are too strong to pass by, even if the tattered state of her decimated voice is almost too depressing to bear. The entire album is excellent—Joni's best work in years. (meth@smoe.org)

Even on first listening it was clear that this is on par with some of Joni's classic stuff. (mjmjminla@yahoo.com)

Really like this more than any other Joni album I've heard. Really strong songwriting and Joni's voice sounds great but is a little more restrained and easier to listen to than on earlier albums. Pretty jazz-pop arrangements with some Kenny G.-ish saxophone work (God, that makes it sound terrible I realize), but it all makes for a very listenable album. "The Magdalene Laundries" is definitely my favorite track. (jjhanson@att.net)

I'm not sure is these are songs they hoped would be singles or if it's a compilation of Joni Mitchell's own choices of her songs, but it seems like a pretty good sampler of some of her most powerful work. (Neile)

Comments:

I must say I'm a little disappointed. It's got such a *pop* sound to it...like it came from the '70s instead of the late '90s. And I swear that Joni sounds so much like Kate Bush sometimes.... (Riphug@aol.com)

I got it as soon as it came out, but I haven't even listened to the whole thing yet. Nothing has really caught my attention so far, and I always seem to reach for other discs first. From what I've listened to, it is fairly indistinguishable from Turbulent Indigo, which is not necessarily a bad thing, but I was hoping for something a little different. Hopefully I'll like it more once I spend more time with it; I've been looking forward to this album for a really long time. (eperkins@surfbest.net

at first I didn't like it at all. the guitar sound she uses on her vg8 is so samey throughout the disc...however after a while the songs really started creeping into my brain. unfortunately not all the tracks are great—i was expecting a work on the order of turbulent indigo, which i consider a career highlight for joni. and some of the tracks that i've known for a while through other recordings just don't have the spark of the renditions i'm used to (eg: the original recording of "man from mars" on the grace of my heart soundtrack, the just-joni-and-acoustic-guitar versions of "facelift" and "crazy cries of love").
     overall though, it's the songs that stand out over the sometimes plain/inferior/unimaginative arrangements on the cd. "harlem in havana" is a great piece of storytelling, as is "love puts on a new face" and "no apologies". however "lead balloon" says it all in its title...and the track "taming the tiger" i find to be on the cloying side, even though it's interesting vicious indictment of the current music/radio/mtv scene is nicely contrasted by the child-like "nice kitty-kitty" refrain.
     i had been anticipating this recording as a breakthrough of sorts for joni, but the REAL astonishing stuff she's currently into isn't even on this cd. these are the vocal recordings she's done recently with other artists—with herbie hancock on his new gershwin cd, and in particular the stunning version of marvin gaye's "trouble man" she does on kyle (son of clint) eastwood's new cd. this one track totally blows away the entire tiger cd by miles, in my opinion!!!
     from what i've been hearing she's intending to record a cd of jazz/pop standards with a jazz group/big band/orchestra in the near future. if the incredible version of "trouble man" is any indication of what she's planning, it will be a killer project! (cjmacs@micronet.net)

I was able to get completely through this once. BORing! Some albums I have difficulty with at first, but I get the feeling it'll be worth it to try again. I don't get even an inkling of that with this one. One of the few discs I own that I'm actively considering selling back. But others have said it took a few spins to grow on them, so I'm going to give it more of a chance too. (meth@smoe.org)

Mmh. Don't really know what to think about this one. It starts very promisingly with "Man From Mars", one of her best songs. All in all a solid work but not very inventive. (Dirk.Kastens@rz.Uni-Osnabrueck.DE)

Taming the Tiger was far from the mark of something I care to listen to at any meaningful frequency. (dlw@sympatico.ca)

One of the biggest disappointments of the year. I was looking forward to this release especially since I loved Turbulent Indigo so much. "The Crazy Cries of Love" is a wonderful song but was done much better when she was on the Canadian show Rita & Friends a few years ago. I haven't given up on it so maybe a few months down the road it will hit me. One thing that does bother me about the album is the guitar sound. It was so bright and clear on Turbulent Indigo but sounds washed out on Taming the Tiger—I think she's using a MIDI guitar. I can understand her wanting to do that live but why on the CD?
