Great songs shame about the voices - Joni 75: A Birthday Celebration review by SH
Am a huge Joni Mitchell fan so was half looking forward to this and half dreading it ! There were some big names here but Joni's songs are very distinctive and sung soooooooo much better by her. Seal and Los Lobos were great and did them justice. The rest , not so much. I would have loved to be a fly on the wall afterwards when she was giving an opinion ! I bet it was priceless.
Graham Nash tried his best to upstage her by singing the only song NOT written by Joni ( Our House) and the look she gave him afterwards was worth seeing.
I was happy to watch it purely to see Joni (hence the 4 stars) but it just went to prove that hers are quite hard songs to sing and no one will ever sing them like her , EVER.
A quite acerbic lady but with huge talent.
