-Michael Fremer, Analog Planet
This elevated body of work helped define the singer-songwriter era. Canadian folky Joni Mitchell moved to the States in 1965 and soon emerged as a female hero, sporting a fearless heart, a probing mind, and a road-worn Martin D-28. These (mostly) solo-acoustic albums birthed many of her best-known songs. Part romantic and part cynic, she wrote poignantly of bleak winters on the Saskatoon prairie, womanhood, famous lovers, her estranged daughter, and Laurel Canyon. Her poetic musings were delivered in a pure voice. She could cut to the bone and was unwavering in her feminism, but she also waxed topical, as on the sentimental hit 'Big Yellow Taxi' and the austere generational anthem 'Woodstock.'
-Greg Cahill, The Absolute Sound, October 2021, Music 5/5, Sonics 5/5
