Joni Mitchell — Travelogue

in
By Geoff Dennis (CHARTattack) December 10, 2002 3:20 pm
Joni Mitchell’s fragile voice and sweet, pure lyrics are the centre points of her work. Usually, it’s just her and the acoustic guitar, the perfect less-is-more sound. However, every so often, more can be magical, especially on Travelogue, a two-disc gem that captures Mitchell’s unparalleled presence with a full orchestra. The results are songs...

Joni Mitchell — The Beginning Of Survival

in
By Sofi Papamarko (CHARTattack) September 14, 2004 1:24 pm
This compilation of Joni Mitchell's most socially-conscious songs from the ‘80s and ‘90s isn't so much a "Best Of" as it is a hand-delivered present (wrapped in 100 per cent biodegradable, natural, hand-dyed paper, of course) to the tree-hugging set. Mitchell describes The Beginning Of Survival as "an essay, a tragedy, an opera, a...

30. ALANIS MORISSETTE Jagged Little Pill (Maverick) 1995 With her diary-style rants and ex-boyfriend-crushing anger, Alanis Morissette shed her pop diva skin for a pair of leather pants and multi-million dollar success. Imbued with the sort of troubled girl angst that gets girls spending money and enough chunky guitar to get the boys shelling out...
