More of the Music of Joni Mitchell
Hot Stamper Pressings of Personal Favorites Available Now
One of our favorite Joni Mitchell albums. A Desert Island disc for me & one of the few good reasons to listen to new music in the 80s.
My personal Must Own Joni Mitchell list includes:
- 1968 Song to a Seagull
- 1971 Blue
- 1974 Court and Spark
- 1982 Wild Things Run Fast
WTRF is a TAS list Super Disc with many good qualities, but you’d never know it from the typically lean, bass-shy pressing you might find on your turntable.

You can count on the fact that our Hot Stamper pressings will be unusually rich and full-bodied, with lovely warmth and presence. (more…)
