Great soongwriter, marvelous singer, but why does Mitchell always have a cigarette in her hand!? God knows, Joni's smokin' enough without the tobacco (LMFAO)!
Brilliant song, brilliant woman! Joni Mitchell knocks me on my ass and I get up and happily come back for more. One of the finest artists of this generation or any other. I've been loving her music from day one and every time I come back to one of her songs, I hear something new and wonderful. THAT is great artistry!
Hey Ricadia, very well put. I'm doing an album-by-album review of her first decade of music making at my blog 'sounds from the funky goat'. If you love Joni, have a read. Hope you like it! I think it's the very cool Don Alias on congas. How amazing Joni is: from 'Song To A Seagull' to stuff lie 'Don Juan' and 'Mingus', and all of it sublime!
This is one of the greatest songs ever recorded IMO, nothing gut voice and percussion but unmistakable melody. Even by the standards of the great Joni Mitchell, this is simply outstanding

Don Juan's Reckless Daughter is one of the most overlooked and underrated albums in contemporary music.
There isn't another popular music artist with this woman's songwriting and musical range, versatility and lyricism.
Genius. Often assigned, but rarely merited. Joni = genius
