Almost famous (Joni Mitchell)

This is Joni Mitchell in 1967 singing "Song to a Daydreamer" or "Blue on Blue" and staying for an interview on CBC television show "Take 30".

I may be breaking copyright (this video was found in the CBC archives), but I thought it was a great shame that this video was not on YouTube. You can also find this video at: http://archives.cbc.ca/arts_entertainment/music/topics/2462/

love playing this song on guitar, it's so so beautiful.

"daydreaming can get you into a lot of difficulty sometimes..if it's not used properly.." truer words were never spoken.

This is the first time I have seen this - it's really great to see this early, early interview when Joni was in the early days of her career. She mentioned singing those old traditional ballads and "House of the Rising Sun." It would be great to see her singing some of those songs.

Thanks for posting this!! Much appreciated! I love the early material of Joni's from the 60's.

what a gem! Even at this stage the light of a true genius shines. No wonder Crosby, Nash, Stills, Young, Page, Plant, Dylan and countless others fell in love with her
