Welcome to the official RU-vid channel of Joni Mitchell, whose songs “River,” “Both Sides Now," “California,” and albums ‘Clouds,’ ‘Ladies of the Canyon’ and ‘Blue’ compose only a fragment of a multi-disciplinary artistic output that has been embraced across generations, inspired multitudes of artists, and earned every conceivable accolade.
One of the world’s most remarkable and beloved artists, Mitchell has influenced musicians across a vast cross-section of genres with her ethereal songs that reflect social and environmental ideals. The prolific singer-songwriter-painter-poet has not only written and produced her music, but also designed most of her album covers and packaging. A journey into Joni Mitchell’s artistry is one of a highly original, harmonically innovative, and emotionally charged, familiar yet fresh adventure.

I was 20 when this album came out. I’d just given up a baby girl for adoption and had been in relationships of little commitment. I bought the record and put it on my stereo in my tiny apartment…. When Little Green started I sobbed and sobbed. I cried through many of these songs . Joni Mitchell is my heart ❤️. My daughter found me later in her adult life.

I too was about 20 when I first heard this album. Why do they say that this about her baby was some kind of secret till the 1990s? All I remember is that I and my friends at the time all knew exactly what Little Green was about. Do I remember wrong? I guess not, since Linda had this experience. Thanks for telling about it.

I'm 73, and I've adored Joni since my late teens. I discovered her after her first or second album (I don't remember which). I was living in NYC, and she was giving concerts in NYC, some of them in very small venues such as night clubs. I saw her at one of those night clubs. Because I had made a reservation, when I arrived, they took me to the first row (a wooden bench) and asked the other patrons to scoot over, so I watched Joni give her concert about ten feet away from me. (The stage was very small.) Unfortunately, I was so new to her music then that I didn't recognize any of her songs, having listen to one album just once or twice. Now, in my old age, I have listened to each song perhaps fifty times. My feeling about Joni is that she was the greatest singer-songwriter (up through her album Hejira). She sang with more feeling, nuance and sensitivity than any other singer. Starting with Don Juan's Reckless Daughter, she started to sing in a more stylized way which I couldn't relate to. Her first eight albums are her best work. I'm happy for all you young people who have discovered Joni. She may be the best singer you will ever listen to.

The most beautiful music I've ever heard. The most beautiful vibe. And as a student of jazz and songwriting, she was one of my biggest influences. I learned that you can break all the rules, if you stick to your truth; creating beauty. Joni is the truest Folk Musician. I am grateful to have owned her other albums; Mingus, Hejira, Don Juan's Reckless Daughter, Court and Spark, and The Hissing of Summer Lawns.

@@tamara8908 Hi. Yes, I listened to the radio, my red Panapet with the leash chain. Growing up in NE Wisconsin, I would tune into WLS Chicago when I went to bed. The first memorable song I listened to was Badfinger Day After Day. If WLS played Joni I have no recollection of her. My early teens i listened to whatever my sisters played The Raspberries, 3DN, America. I later loved Boston, Zeppelin, Fogelberg. Quite varied. You?

OMG! I just heard River for the first time. It's hauntingly beautiful, freeing yet mournful at the same time. Halfway through Joni's song, the blue chill reached me. It's as if the music came alive. Joni's music is sublime with the combination of unique cords, lyrical timing and meaningful poetry. Joni is like no other musician. Thanks for allowing RU-vid to post this.🌺

@STREET_ARTISTS Год назад

When I first listened to Blue, I knew beforehand that I was getting myself into a classic. Whenever I read about Joni's career this one was always mentioned as the one that got her reputation and status as a major singer songwriter. Suffice to say, it did not disappoint. Not in the very least. Every song in it is a gem. It was also at the time, one of the most confessional albums ever to be released by a musician. And I really must include Laura Nyro's equally influential New York Tendaberry in this particular cannon. For me, they will always be sister albums in the way they use sparsity in music terms to convey complex emotional states. I also read that this album was borne out of a depressive period of Joni's, hence the album's title. And listening to it, you can clearly identify this in the songs. Feeling anxious for something she cannot attain in "All I Really Want", or lovesick in a relationship she knows it's going to end in "My Old Man" and especially in "A Case of You", getting the most of a good day in the bittersweet "California", or just going through Holly Golightly's "mean reds" in the closing track "The Last Time I Saw Richard". She knows this is only a phase that she has to go through and that's how she closes the album, ever the sage. What she probably didn't know is that we would all be listening to this album some 51 years after its release date and still relate to it. Thank you Joni, for this most precious of gifts.

@joane.3533 Год назад

Giving up anything is hard to do but sometimes it's the best and most right thing to do. There are many ways to give up a child: one is to adoption and the other is to lose a child to death sometimes it takes many years to deal with the letting go Johnny has captured this perfectly in little green Bravo. Just because you get let a child go doesn't mean that you're not still a mother. Motherhood is forever

@dooneparkinson2383 Год назад

I spent my teens listening to Joni, Carol King, Leonard Cohen , Don Maclean and later Tracey Chapman , the music, the song the lyrics were enough without the stage performance to take you on a journey…words and melody winding around your body and mind , taking your emotions on a journey , like water, soothing and sad sometimes and in to the heart of relationship.Her Melodie’s are so reflective of the tone of your mind when it is travelling unguarded.

One of the very best albums ever. She was a huge influence on me when I was living as a ski bum in Sun Valley in the 70's. Such a magic time, partly due to her music and the music of other special people like Crosby, Stills, and Nash, Seals and Croft, and others.

I love Joni Mitchell so much ever since the 60's. I played her music all the time. Blue is my favorite. I just received 2 books from a friend. "Joni Mitchell, The Complete Poems and Lyrics. And Morning Glory On The Vine, early songs & drawings. Your voice goes straight to my heart. We have something in common, I got polio when I was 5 years old (70 now). I was in insolation for months. It effected my right leg. I have been wearing a brace since. I graduated from high school in 1971. I am an artist also; it keeps me from depression. Been loving you forever. Peace Joni Mitchell.
