hi This is unclassifiable music. It is the most enigmatic of Joni's work IMHO. her voice, like it or not, that phrasing is sublime. I LOVE this album and if it doesn't get Grammy nominated I will be astounded. Does it miss this years nomination cycle?. If it does all the better as I think it will have more time to be absorbed and appreciated for next year :-). Did I say I LOVE this album ?.
I have been a Joni Mitchell fan for 33 years and never has a CD ( or LP :-)) sounded so complete a piece of work as this one does. The orchestra and the others seem to be in total sympathy with her voice. For years I have been waiting for an album of this quality without even knowing it. Now it is here I m cherishing it. After this any other CD is just music, this is like music only better :-) Did I say I LOVE this album? Best wishes, Paul Headon Wales. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
