Yep...I'm a black man from the Southside of Chicago, and I dig Joni...
I dig the more commercial shit she did like Clouds, Blue, and Court and Spark to her "fuck you I'm Joni Michell" work like The Hissing of Summer Lawns, Hejira, and Mingus. It's all about her lyrics, cadence and counter melodies...She's one of those artists that you have to at least listen to even if you don't dig her genre of music (which is all over the place...Joni was a bad chick...)
GOAT of his era......long live Prince.....God is alive....
