Product Description

From Amazon.co.uk

She has only had a few bona fide hits, but after almost 30 years, she's finally delivered a 15-song compilation of her signature songs that will be a CD point-of-departure for casual fans and newcomers well into the new millennium. The companion Misses volume is an intriguing curio that might rather more generously have been marketed as a bonus disc. --Jeff Bateman


Chronique amazon.fr

Joni Mitchell n'a eu que quatre titres classés dans le Top 40 américain, dont une version live de "Big Yellow Taxi" enregistrée à Miles of Aisles mais ne figurant pas sur cette collection. Après presque 30 ans, Joni nous livre enfin un florilège de 15 titres écrits de sa plume. C'est le CD idéal pour entrer dans le prochain millénaire. --Jeff Bateman

4.0 out of 5 stars The Blonde In The Bleachers, April 27 2004
joni is the blonde in the bleachers to graham nash..that interesting circle of talented artists that hung around laurel canyon....sharing and inspiring the great american music that followed the Byrds breakthrough...joni was one of the matriarchs, along with cass elliot, of that important movement...its repeated, crosby stills and nash sang their first official harmonies together at joni's house...and joni could easily hang with the boys...she could write and chord with the best of them...buy this "Hits" album to sample joni, understanding you omit so much when you deny yourself the opportunity to play her stand alone albums and grow your mitchell ear organically...joni said recently "once people awaited me like the rain,now the janitors of shadowland flick their brooms at me",...quite a journey,no,yes...?? however,to "get joni" you really ought to go back to the beginning and play the olde stuff....follow the incredible anthology of this chain smoking,smart,hip,golden girl...though joni wrote woodstock,her agent denied her the opportunity to actually be there because of time constraints of a concert committment that weekend...all in all "Hits" is just a shortcut to meaningful understanding of joni and her music...better than nothing....but you owe yourself the experience of getting back to the roots of this artists prolific body of work...buy this cd first if you must, and then graduate to Clouds,Blue,For the Roses,Court and Spark...like Hemingway,you cant appreciate The Old Man And The Sea...without first reading A Farewell To Arms...this cd though,is just a swatch of joni's body of work.. better perhaps than no beginning at all...listen to joni's rendition of chinese cafe/unchained melody,an old righteous brothers hit at your earlist convenience..."the blonde in the bleachers,she flips her hair for you...she tapes her regrets to the microphone stand..she says you cant hold the hand of a rock and roll man,very long"...i submit youll hold the hand of this rock and roll lady for a very long time...without regrets...

5.0 out of 5 stars hippie flowerchild Joni Mitchell's Hits, April 23 2004
By I ain't no porn writer (author, "Crippled Dreams") - See all my reviews
I love this album. It has many of her early and best songs. I listened to it constantly when I first got it. Several of the songs gave me just the most incredible inner spiritual experience of delight, that almost otherworldly feeling you get when you're deeply moved or stimulated by a work of art, be it a painting, a book, or a piece of music. If you get this "Hits" album, don't lend it to a friend. I did, and never got it back :)

5.0 out of 5 stars New Joni Fan, Jan 17 2004
By Aaron (Ohio, USA) - See all my reviews
Ok, so i wasn't around in the late-60's and early-70's when Joni Mitchell came onto the scene. So I obviously missed this music the first time around. I've always been a fan of the singer songwriters of this era such as Carole King, Carly Simon, and Elton John, but seemed to overlook Joni Mitchell *big mistake.* I got this for Christmas and enjoy it very much. I'm a teenager so I'm not very knowledgable about this type of music, but I love Joni Mitchell's voice and songwriting style. True, she only had four top 40 hits, her biggest being the top 10 hit "Help Me" yet she has managed to be one of the most influential women in music. My favorites are "The Circle Game", "Help Me", "Come In From the Cold", "Big Yellow Taxi" and "Both Sides Now."

This collection definitely made me a fan and has intrigued me to check out her muisic catolgue furthur. :)

5.0 out of 5 stars Roadmap to Joni Mitchell
