This is the acclaimed 4th studio album by Canadian singer - songwriter Joni Mitchell. Widely hailed by music critics as one of the greatest albums ever made, Mitchell was already successful with her first three albums, 'Song To A Seagull', 'Clouds' and 'Ladies Of The Canyon'. In early 1970, she took a break from performing and while traveling in Europe, wrote many of the songs on 'Blue', such as 'Carey' and 'California'. Mitchell found inspiration in different aspects of relationships, from the initial infatuation to insecurities, having been in relationships with Graham Nash and James Taylor. Despite simple accompaniments on piano, guitar, and Appalachian dulcimer, 'Blue' is a turning point in 20th - century popular music. It comes on clear colored vinyl, is an indie exclusive, housed in a gatefold jacket, and is a limited - edition release from 1971, reissued by Reprise in 2024. A must - have for every vinyl collection!
