A classic

 Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: This is one of my all-time favorite albums. All the songs are amazing and have held up well over the many years since it was released in 1976. Joni's voice is in great form, though some may say it is an acquired taste. The songs are often a little on the long side by today's standards, but you shouldn't let that deter you from listening to them. I haven't heard all of Joni Mitchell's many albums she's released during her lengthy career, but I would bet that Hejira is one of her best works -- very individualistic but also accessible.

Hejira by Joni Mitchell

 Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: I have always loved and admired Joni Mitchell's music, her poetry and the depth of her lyrics. She is an artist who has consistently grown and changed throughout her career, always becoming stronger and more interesting, following the influences of jazz greats, while always maintaining her own unique qualities. Hejira is my new favorite album of hers, ordered while I was looking for a few of my other favorites which I only have in vinyl. I would highly recommend it both for the music and the poetry, which is wonderful.Hejira

Review Comments: "The whole Hejira album was really inspired . . . I wrote the album while traveling cross-country by myself and there is this restless feeling throughout it . . . The sweet loneliness of solitary travel."--Joni Mitchell.

Hejira ranks among my three favorite Joni Mitchell albums (the other two being Court and Spark and Blue), and it is one of Joni Mitchell's best albums, considered by many critics as the "high-water mark" of Mitchell's career. Blending folk, rock and jazz, and driven by Mitchell's riveting guitar and Jaco Pastorius's fretless bass, it was a success both critically and commercially upon its 1976 release. Mitchell wrote most of the beautiful songs on the album while driving cross country, infusing her definitive folk-rock sound with intimately poetic, confessional lyrics. Hejira features a perfect arrangement of meticulously-crafted songs and Mitchell classics ("Coyote," "Amelia," "Hejira," and "Song For Sharon"). The album also features an impressive list of backing musicians: Larry Carlton on acoustic & electric guitars, Neil Young on harmonica, Tom Scott on horns, and Jaco Pastorius on bass. The complete album tracklist includes:

1. Coyote 5:01
2. Amelia 6:01
3. Furry Sings The Blues 5:06
4. A Strange Boy 4:19
5. Hejira 6:42
6. Song For Sharon 8:37
7. Black Crow 4:22
8. Blue Motel Room 5:04
9. Refuge Of The Roads 6:42

Review Comments: There's something about the music of Joni Mitchell that is completely absorbing and mesmerizing!! After hearing the re-working by Herbie Hancock of her material, I'll still opt for the real thing!!
