For so long I rebelled against the term, ‘I was never a folk singer.’ I didn’t think it was a good description of what I was. And then I listened and . . . it was beautiful. It made me forgive my beginnings. And I had this realization . . . Oh God! [Laughs I was a folk singer!” / Joni Mitchell Photos: Joni Mitchell's personal archive except back cover, © Al Blixt Dedicated in memoriam to Elliot Roberts Many of these recordings were produced informally and on non-studio-grade equipment. There are some occasional, inherent audio anomalies, but we feel the historical significance, the music, and the performances far outweigh any of those audio imperfections.
