5 stars Joni defines blue in her own elements-high notes and creativ
Blue is great CD to analyze. At first listen, it's hard to catch what Joni is Blue about. Her voice is so angelic and fun that one tends to overlook the darkness of some of her lyrical phrasing. The title track is full of emotion, power and thirst. It's obvious that Joni was full of love and trials. Joni tops off this incredible album with "The Last Time I Saw Richard." What an excellent summary of an excellent album- "only a phase, these dark cafes."

5 stars Blue is "pure" Joni...
For anyone who is a purist and appreciates the artist and her guitar, Blue is a perfect album. I always just allow it to carry me away every time I listen to it. From her soul searching in "My Old Man" and "This Flight Tonight" to her relationship conundrums in "River" and "A Case of You", this album never disappoints. The special treat for me remains in her story telling rendition of "The Last Time I saw Richard", delivered in her so utterly unique style. Do yourself a favor and get "Blue"....you won't be.

5 stars straight to the top
i considered myself a joni fan and had a half dozen albums but not "blue". so when i finally got it i could rank it against all those other joni albums which i adore. after one play "blue" headed the list. it is astonishing, it has the most tender song ever written, "little green" and how about those lyrics in "all i want"!!!! thats love, warmth, truth and an overlooked quality of joni's - humour, all in one song...this album is essential (why did i leave it so long)

I have had a copy of "Blue" for many years, but it was a bad tape recording, so I was pleased to finally get the CD. Every song is beautifully performed, lots of feeling, great lyrics, and although it was recorded some years ago, it remains one of my all time favourites.

Joni Mitchell Court And Spark CD  (1974)

Blue album
CD $8.49  5 stars Top 500 Audio Samples Definitive Album
All tracks have been digitally mastered using HDCD technology. COURT AND SPARK completed Joni Mitchell's transition from folk-singer to sophisticated rock auteur. In addition to her meticulously crafted melodies and evocative, image-rich lyrics, the songs here are breezy and immediately appealing. This is in part due to Tom Scott's L.A. Express, a sinuous jazz-based combo, but also to Mitchell's knack for pop hooks, which abound on COURT AND SPARK. The album's accessibility made it Mitchell's most commercially successful, yet the personal intensity and insight of her songwriting never wavers. "Help Me" was a hit single, as was "Free Man in Paris," an expansive pop frolic that is reputedly a dig at industry mogul David Geffen. Mitchell returns to the terrain of piano balladry on "The Same Situation" and "Down to You"; yet even on these, as on the excellent social satire "People's Parties," one can hear the influence of jazz on her vocal phrasing and intonations. The rock-&-roll romp "Raised on Robbery" and the bluesy, comic swing of "Twisted" mix things up a bit, showing the artist's increasing ability to master and manipulate any form. COURT AND SPARK is one of Mitchell's finest albums, confirming her standing as one of the most important and subtle talents of the rock era. All songs written by Joni Mitchell except "Twisted" (Ross/Grey). Live Recording Personnel: Joni Mitchell (vocals, piano, Clavinet); Dennis Budimir, Jose Feliciano, Larry Carlton, Robbie Robertson, Wayne Perkins (electric guitar); Tom Scott (reeds, winds); Chuck ...

Joni Mitchell Hejira CD  (1976)

Blue CD music
CD $6.39  4.9 stars Top 500 Audio Samples Definitive Album
All tracks have been digitally remastered using HDCD technology. 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. Live ...

Joni Mitchell For The Roses CD  (1972)

Blue music CDs
CD $9.45  5 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
Between the stark, confessional singer-songwriter format of BLUE and the artful, streamlined jazz-pop of COURT AND SPARK, Joni Mitchell released this excellent transitional album. Located firmly between these stylistic poles, FOR THE ROSES looks to Mitchell's folky beginnings with wistful, piano-driven ballads like "Banquet" and the acoustic guitar lilt of the title track. At the same time cuts like "Cold Blue Steel and Straight Fire" push toward the unconventional melodies and rhythms--heavily influenced by jazz--that she would explore more fully on albums like HEJIRA. "Electricity" and "Let the Wind Carry Me" blend singer-songwriter styles with jazzy flourishes (as on the saxophone accompaniment and swooping wordless vocals on the latter), while the record's hit single, "Turn Me On I'm a Radio" is breezy, harmonica-driven pop. But while the styles diverge, Mitchell's lyrics are sharp as ever, exploring human relationships with a storyteller's eye for detail and a poet's feel for phrasing and image. The sense of painful, incisive honesty that comes across on BLUE is here as well, ...

Joni Mitchell Clouds CD  (1969)

Blue songs
CD $6.39  5 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
All tracks have been digitally remastered using HDCD technology. Mitchell's second album, like her first, focuses almost exclusively on her acoustic guitar and voice. Though the sound is similar to her debut recording, there's a lot of progression evident in the songwriting here. Mitchell comes across as the quintessential folk poet, highly literate, guardedly emotional, somewhat collegiate, but full of enough talent and idiosyncrasy to pull listeners into her web. "Both Sides Now," a beautiful low-key anthem of disillusionment from which the album's title is derived, became something of an anthem for the Woodstock set. Other, less well-known tunes like "That Song About the ...

Joni Mitchell Ladies Of The Canyon CD  (1970)

Blue album
CD $8.49  5 stars Top 500 Audio Samples Definitive Album
Joni Mitchell's third release found her moving away from the wistful folk of her debut and CLOUDS, branching out into the progressive pop and jazz elements that would define her best work. The bright, poppy "Big Yellow Taxi," the album's single, is here, as is her epoch-defining "Woodstock," a soulful, stirring song about the 1969 rock festival that was later covered by Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young. But the material on LADIES OF THE CANYON is uniformly strong, demonstrating the mature style and vision that made her one of the leading voices of the '70s. On songs like, "Conversation" and the title cut, Mitchell's lyrics begin to turn toward to the quirky, personal poetry of interior landscapes, focusing with a writer's eye on scene, detail, and the dynamics of human relationships. Her instrumental palette is broadened too, with colorful, textured arrangements that make greater use of piano, as well as strings, reeds, electric keyboards, and percussion. Some songs, like the sweet, chiming "The ...

more about the musicFor saxophone player Olaf Schönborn's Q4 (sax, acoustic guitar, double bass, percussion) it's music that's so melodic that it can be played on the radio - without being smooth jazz:Relaxed, yet full of energy; - flowing, yet deep and intense - clear yet full of improvisation and surprise.PRESS REVIEWS:reviews Q4Jazzzeit (Austria), April 2008:5 stars — excellentStereo, 05/2008one of the most remarkable albums of the last months. Radio Jazz is one hour of disport. It’s a pleasure to listen to this album over and over again. Full of little details that add up to something great. It fits almost every occasion and has the potential for becoming one’s favourite album.Audio, 04/2008:the 12 songs are catchy, elaborate, melodic and rhytmically interesting. The transparent combination with acoustic guitar, bass and percussion instead of drums, the very round and well-mixed sound make this CD a treat for hifi lovers.Groove FM: cd of the monthThis ist he perfect CD for our radio station! Schönborn shows with this album that jazz is far more than just intellectual music. It’s jazz but it’s catchy and groovy. And to our listeners we suggest: buy this record, since you will not be able to find better radio jazz elsewhere.3sat.de:cd of the monthSaxophone player Olaf Schönborn creates with „Radio Jazz“ a relaxed athmosphere yet keeping the tension. It’s easy to listen to and a lot of fun.Jazzpodium, April 2008:extraordinary beautiful music that makes you relax without being boring. Schönborn plays calm and at the same time full of energy.Concerto (Austria), 2/2008:Music as you would like to hear it on the radio. It swings, it grooves, it sways — the knees start to move with this music. Saxophonist Schönborn’s first CD as a leader does not sound like a debut but it’s a masterpiece. Exciting and fresh sounding.soultrainoline.deFinally jazz from Germany that touches the soul and heart - and makes you move!In an unusual acoustic setting without drums with a light Latin touch, his sax leads us through 9 original compositions, 1 pop cover version and a DJ remix.Radio Jazz is also a non-nostalgic reminiscing of the "good old days" when we would spend every free minute listening to our radios - before there was streamlined "format radio"- a time when you would still discover a lot of new, surprising and creative music on the radio - and we think that radio could still fulfill this today! Or as "Queen" put it in their song "Radio - someone still loves you"more about the bandSaxophone player Olaf Schönborn, born in 1967, has performed on many important Jazz Festivals such as the Montreux Jazz Festival, North Sea Jazz Festival Den Haag, Edinburgh Festival, German Jazz Festival in Frankfurt, Leipzig Jazz Festival, Jazz Festival Toulon (France), Szeged Jazz Festival (Hungary).
