Recenzii
A welcome addition to the serious scholarship on the creative contributions of Joni Mitchell. Approaching her work from fresh and surprising angles, the authors provoke a spirited conversation-eloquent, funny, cutting, dense with allusion. A loving look at the legacies and contradictions of a towering figure of popular music.
There's still a lot to explore in the work of Joni Mitchell. This eclectic collection of texts looks at some of the lesser-known aspects of her musicianship in a way that reflects the multiplicity of Mitchell and her audience.
Joni Mitchell has been widely acknowledged as a central figure in popular music, yet as far as serious inquiry goes, she also seems perpetually underserved. This may be because much writing about Mitchell either veers precipitously into the personal and emotional, or focuses determinedly on technical analysis of her music. This anthology crucially aligns both approaches as a way of challenging the boundaries between the pop heart and the scholarly mind. Decades-long conversations about Mitchell, feminism, and race are advanced in new ways here, while wholly surprising inquiries into her relationship to disability and queerness vastly expand the conversation. And in every essay, there's a sense of what Mitchell calls 'solid love'-tested and blessed-the kind of deep work on a crucial artist that only comes from a scholar's self-aware commitment to her work over time.
