Joni Mitchell
Joni Mitchell Archives — Volume 1: The Early Years (1963-1967)
THE FIRST disc in this expansive account of Joni Mitchell’s coffeehouse years is a portrait of the young singer as a Joan Baez of the North. By late 1966 and early 1967, Mitchell is performing standards from her own book, predicting the solitary grace and confessional fortitude of the singer-songwriter era.
