Not really my thing, but good nonetheless. She's got a gorgeous voice.

Intensity that doesn't let up. Elevated by title song, epitome of failed hopes.

"A Case of You" is my favorite song and the most-played song on my iPod. The rest of the album is almost as good. I'll take Joni Mitchell's songwriting over Bob Dylan's or Paul Simon's any day.

A pure masterpiece. So insightful and moody. How the hell did she learn this growing up in Fort MacLeod Alberta?

This is just beautiful stuff. "the Last Time I Saw Richard" floored me that someone could write so personally. Joni and Blue are amazing.
