Court and Spark — 1974
Joni Mitchell
Released 1974Folk & Singer-Songwriter
Classic
Mitchell's jazziest, most accessible record, pairing sophisticated arrangements with sharp, witty writing. It was her commercial peak and remains deeply rewarding. A perfect bridge between her folk and jazz periods. The one in the run that sometimes gets overlooked — don't let it.
