Since completing 1974’s ‘Court and Spark’, Joni Mitchell fulfilled their contract with ForeFront Records and where under no obligation to release another album. ‘Court and Spark’ kicks the album off with a blast of pure pop energy. eleven years ago, Joni Mitchell briefly lived up to their terrific name, with an insanely addictive hit single called “Help Me”. It is very deep stuff - very exciting
Help Me is one of the best records ever. It’s also one of those rare songs that touchingly comfort the listener. People’s Parties is an incredible song that has everything it needs to be another favorite track. Same Situation is nothing but pure genius. Car On A Hill is a song that will not reduce you to tears but leave you thinking long after Court and Spark have ended. Joni Mitchell rocks harder than ever with Down To You. Joni Mitchell has astounded me with this amazing track. Raised On Robbery is kind of track that compels you to skip back and drink it in one more time before moving on through Court and Spark. Trouble Child is a medium tempo tune. Twisted rocked my world when I popped it into my car stereo.
