JONI MITCHELL - BLUE (180g LP)


Classic Joni Mitchell Done Right on 180g LP

Warner Brothers' All-Analog Blue Mastered From the Orginal Master Tapes and Pressed at RTI

Pristinely Mastered 180g LPs of Mitchell's Ladies of the Canyon, Court and Spark, and The Hissing of Summer Lawns Also Available

Warner Brothers Records continues their unparalleled audiophile LP reissue run with an astounding pressing of Joni Mitchell's Blue. Mastered by Steve Hoffman and cut by Kevin Grey at RTI on 180g vinyl, this is hands-down the very best pressing of Joni’s 1971 masterpiece.

Without a doubt, one of the most important and influential artists in all of contemporary music, Mitchell is much more than a legendary singer-songwriter icon. Since her 1968 debut LP, the five-time Grammy winner has released a long string of stellar albums as emotionally powerful as they are stylistically diverse. This is her 1971 poetic masterpiece, now completely re-mastered and pressed 180-gram HQ vinyl. Even the original artwork is replicated on this gatefold release.

Featuring such memorable songs as 'Carey,' 'All I Want,' 'California,' “A Case of You,” “River," Blue raised the stakes of confessional folk-pop to new levels of honesty and openness. Mitchell's music moves beyond the constraints of acoustic folk into more intricate and diverse territory, setting the stage for the experimentation of her later work. Unrivaled in its intensity and insight, the entire album is perfect from start to finish. Sonically and musically, we cannot give this pressing a high enough recommendation.

“Blue is clearly Mitchell’s masterpiece...the reissue has far greater presence and physicality and is more immediate, dynamic, detailed and especially transparent. Highest recommendation and a most highly anticipated reissue that lives up to every high expectation. Congratulations to all involved in the AAA vinyl reissue of Joni Mitchell’s Blue!”

'This is a really wonderful album; Joni just laid it all out there for the world to hear. I feel this new version is the true giant killer. Parts were cut, plated and pressed at RTI and the actual 1971 Reprise master tape was used in disk cutting. Most of the songs on this vinyl version were cut without ANY equalization at all so this will be the closest you will ever get to the sound of the true master tape!”
– Steve Hoffman, Mastering Engineer
