Customer Reviews
This is a masterpiece, both of Joni and Jaco
Hejira is an excellent collection of songs that you will listen to over and over, the interplay between Joni and Jaco Pastorius on bass is incredible. The songs are deeply emotional, compelling and deep, a far cry from the pop schlock we are subjected to today.
Hejira, by Joni Mitchell.
Hejira is, simply put, Joni Mitchell's finest album. Which is saying a lot.
Many of the songs were written by Joni while she was on the road with Bob Dylan's Rolling Thunder Review, and reflect the abstraction and solitude one can feel, even while surrounded by others. 'The fine white lines of the freeway' indeed.
The lyrics are sheer poetry, some of Joni's best, and are carried along by the stripped-down production, which features Joni's creative guitar wizardry in tandem with some of Jaco Pastorius's finest fretless bass work on record.
Highlights include 'Amelia' (Which is worth the price of the album in itself), Song For Sharon, The Refuge Of The Roads... There's really not a weak track on Hegira.
When introducing someone to Joni, Hegira is always my choice. I've probably gifted 30 copies of the album to friends over the years. It's Joni at her creative peak, the musicianship is impeccable, the lyrics shimmer with truth and scatter light like a mirror ball.
You simply can't go wrong with Hegira. 5 Stars.
Hejira
One of the best albums ever written. As far as songwriters go Joni is at the very top and this album is perfect from start to finish... Not to mention her signature guitar playing which in itself is remarkably different than most others. She is constantly underwritten by today's pop culture... She is a standing force in music.
