This album is my favorite, too. She definitely scrambled time and seasons as she got through to millions of us. The sound and the words are stamped on my soul throughout this life and probably the next one. "Hejira" was Joni's tome to immortality.

Joni has always reflected our own rythms, real fealings including love and some unique kind of angst. I really don't know where she finds it, let alone the beauty in her expressions. Now that is audio art!!!

Gosh.. I just adore these songs by her. I feel like the songs from Hejira (two so far) have affected me more than all her others, not that they aren't as good. Thank you so much for posting these. I hope she doesn't mind, lol.

Ya know... I'm a "hrad rocker" I suppose.... Zeppelin and Black Sabbath and such... but I had a friend where the rule was we'd each get to play a side of a cassette whilst watching the sunset and "enhancing" ousrselves in the mid to late 70s at this really cool beach place to park.
Well... I turned him on to some "deep cuts" of Zeppelin...... he put on "Hejira" ... and God painted a picture during it.
Just amazing.
And Jaco ! ;-)

A talent unmatched, in my humble opinion. The lyrics to this album are pure genius. Just staggeringly beautiful.

This is the best album
Lyrics are just the best on all songs
Hejira is outstanding those words still play on my mind decades later; We're only particles of change I know I know
Orbiting around the sun
But how can I have that point of view
When I'm always bound and tied to someone.
No one writes like that anymore.

The first time I heard this song I was stationed at NADC Warminster and a friend of mine from DC, my friend Dennis, had this joint playing in his room at the barracks. I knew it was Joni MitchelI, but I had never heard it before. The song is so beautiful it stopped me in my tracks and melted my heart. Wow. That was so long ago and the song still has that same effect of my heart. Beautiful.

For me it’s the cord changes, alternative tunings, and the imagery of her lyrics that make her the greatest songwriter of our time. Pure art! Joni was and always has been years ahead of her time. Hejira, Court and Spark, and Blue have been my favorites.
