Joni Mitchell - Court and Spark


Released in 1974, this is her fourth studio release.  Sort of a plain and simple cover - as far as the artwork goes.  But that seems to be fine for her. Lots of great musicians play on the record - including Wilton Felder on bass Joe Sample, David Crosby, Graham Nash, Larry Carlton, Wayne Perkins, Robbie Robertson, Jose Feliciano, and even Cheech and Chong even!  This is a follow-up post circling back to that great book on the music of Laurel Canyon in the sixties, by Michael Walker.  The author read my review and emailed me some nice comments.
