Joni Mitchell Counterbalances Love and Trust with Freedom and Confusion on Court and Spark: Ranked the 110th Greatest Album of All Time by Rolling Stone.

Court and Spark, the most commercially successful album of Joni Mitchell's trailblazing career, arrived after a year in which she took some time to breathe and kept a low profile. The pause led to more breakthroughs for the singer-songwriter. Marking Mitchell's increasing drift toward jazz (and affinity for Miles Davis and John Coltrane), Court and Spark garnered four Grammy nominations, earned the Best Album of the Year vote in the prestigious Pazz & Jop poll, and ranks #110 on Rolling Stone’s list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.

Quite remarkable how good this sounds - Its an album recorded in 1974 after all.

Rob LoVerde's mastering seems to have modernized the presentation somewhat and the album jumps out of the speakers as a result. The players seeming to be in the room with you.

Certainly worth getting and (re)discovering the nuance, detail and emotion of the original recording.
