BLUE
Joni Mitchell
Again one of the albums I bought when it came out . . . . . a seminal classic album and though I have kinda left it behind a little still feel it worth revisiting the earlier stuff . . . . . .the jazz influenced stuff has lost a degree of its lustre for this listener though maybe 'Miles of Isles' is still up there. . . . . . Blue is still up there 'Songs to A Seagull', 'Clouds', 'Ladies of The Canyon' but others not so much anymore so from maybe Mingus and even Don Juan I have given them a miss

one of the seminal moments in music and of course bought when it came out . . . I had been doing this since the first album I bought 'Clouds'
:
“…So I bought me a ticket
I caught a plane to Spain
Went to a party down a red dirt road
There were lots of pretty people there
Reading Rolling Stone reading Vogue
They said “How long can you hang around?”
I said a week maybe two
Just until my skin turns brown
Then I’m going home to California ”

River | Joni Mitchell possibly IMHO one of the best songs ever written
