Joni Mitchell draws freely on her heroes and influences, and in her turn inspires and informs the work of countless others; thus are the genes of our musical heritage passed on to new generations. The love of jazz glimpsed in COURT AND SPARK and THE HISSING OF SUMMER LAWNS is wanton in HEJIRA. The arrangements are loose and the melodies seductively free-flowing. The lyrics, too, have broken free of rigid verse and rhyme structures and tend towards prose poetry. The cloak of introspection that weighs down on much of her work is lighter here; though far from mainstream. The chiming flanged guitar throughout, is inspired.

5 stars BEYOND FIVE STARS.
Joni gets a broken heart and drives off to find herself, and perhaps America. Letters home to Sharon, thoughts on others who just take off, all in asides the listener can eavesdrop on. The apex of the confessional songwriter form. It does not get any better, tho many of Jonis' other albums come close. Every sentient being should have this as a cornerstone of their collection.

5 stars that high lonesome roadway sound
Even though Joni Mitchell is both a icon and an iconoclast, this album has been overlooked and deserves a wider audience. Minor chords and ennui abound. Beautifully sung, superlative material. When everything falls apart and you toss off whatever harness that you bear, this is your soundtrack. "Hejira" contains two of her all-time classics, "Coyote" and "Blue Motel Room". I've found that albums with lyrics sometimes don't make good traveling companions. This is the exception.

4 stars My only female singer
Joni is my only singer she knows how to play with great musicians and with my mentor Mr Pastorius I like this album it is one the first I listen and I have all the LPs with Pasto and Wayne Shorter. Thanks again Cduniverse!

5 stars timeless
This work is indeed a masterpiece, one of the finest albums ever made. It is still my favorite Joni Mitchell album, after hearing all of them over the last 25+ years, when I first heard Hejira. Joni Mitchell sees straight through you - it's haunting. If I could only have one CD, this would be it.

5 stars pure joy
Never have I heard an album as perfect as this one. Every song is a journey of discovery, heart, beauty and creativity. Both lyrics and music do not follow any rules or logic, but rather flowing in a space so free and inspiring. This just might be the best album ever made.
