Joni Mitchell

Wonderful. The folk period albums are beautiful; I have no problem calling some of them masterpieces, but the wonderful artistic shift that began in '74-'75 and the dive into Jazz in the following years ('76-'77 and especially '78-'80) sends me into nothing less than a mystical ecstasy. Mingus is a masterpiece, she is wonderful, Pastorius, Shorter, Hancock—oh my goodness, what a delight! Those years remain the most brilliant for her, artistically.
