You missed my point, Andrew...I wasn't talking about co-production, I was talking 
about the *compositions* they did together, which are:

>From DED:
Tax Free
Fiction

>From CMIARS:
Lakota
Tea Leaf Prophecy
Snakes And Ladders
Reocurring Dream

>From NRH:
Nothing Can Be Done

You'll notice that none of the songs you mention (outstanding compositions all) credit 
Klein as a contributor. Of the above that I've listed, in my opinion Lakota is the 
only one that holds a candle to Mitchell's own compositions. Joni herself stated that 
their writing styles were not compatible, and I don't think it's any small coincidence 
that NRH, hailed by many as a return to form after the abysmal CMIARS, trimmed the 
Klein compositions down to one, arguably the weakest track on the record.

Of course, just my opinion...

Bob
