Album Notes Also available with "Court And Spark" on 1 cassette.NOTES:Personnel: Joni Mitchell (vocals, guitar, piano); Stephen Stills (vocals, various instruments); James Burton (electric guitar); Bobby Notkoff (strings); Graham Nash (harmonica); Tom Scott (woodwinds, reeds); Wilton Feider (bass); Russ Kunkel (drums); Bobbye Hall (percussion).Recorded at A&M Studios, Los Angeles, California.All tracks have been digitally remastered using HDCD technology.A gigantic leap from the frail folky to a major writer of breathtaking depth. Critics were unanimous in recognizing the first icon of 70s singer-songwriters. Combining folk roots with pop sensibility and delicately laced with jazz (just listen to the soprano saxophone at the end of "Cold Blue Steel And Sweet Fire" by Tom Scott), this marked the first in a series of classic albums from Mitchell. The outstanding use of metaphors in "Electricity" comparing love to electricity has rarely been bettered. Using lines such as "the masking tape tangles, it's sticky and black" and "but the lines overloaded and the sparks started flying," Mitchell was on a roll. Similarly stunning was "You Turn Me On I'm A Radio." Editorial Reviews Rolling Stone Magazine (01/04/1973) Rolling Stone (01/04/1973) | |||||||||||||
Reviews  Joni MitchellReview created: 14/10/06 by:  I love this album and have done since I first heard it over 20 years ago. Great to get it on CD, now that my tape is distorting her singing! This is Joni Mitchell at her sweetest. Mostly she sings accompanied by her piano playing with occasional guitar. I recommend it for a quiet moment in your life.
