Album Review
Sad, spare, and beautiful, Blue is the quintessential confessional singer/songwriter album. Forthright and poetic, Joni Mitchell's songs are raw nerves, tales of love and loss (two words with relative meaning here) etched with stunning complexity; even tracks like "All I Want," "My Old Man," and "Carey" — the brightest, most hopeful moments on the record — are darkened by bittersweet moments of sorrow and loneliness. At the same time that songs like "Little Green" (about a child given up for adoption) and the title cut (a hymn to salvation supposedly penned for James Taylor) raise the stakes of confessional folk-pop to new levels of honesty and openness, Mitchell's music moves beyond the constraints of acoustic folk into more intricate and diverse territory, setting the stage for the experimentation of her later work. Unrivaled in its intensity and insight, Blue remains a watershed.

Original Tracks?
I loved this album when it was released in 1971. I probably listened to it over 500 times on my stereo (on vinyl). But somehow I don't think these are the original tracks from that album. They sound like studio cuts from a decade later or perhaps remastered cuts with the original orchestration changed. It is deeply disturbing to me to listen to Carey, This Flight Tonight and River and feel something is missing. It you were not an early 1970s Joni fan, you might not have this feeling and, of course, these songs and this album are unique creations in the history of folk rock. I just want my original cuts back. Can anyone help me with this?
Joni's best
By far the best Joni Mitchel album. If you like folk music you must get this album. If you like rock and roll you must get this album.
