Joni Mitchell – Blue (1971, Canada)

Our next spotlight is on number 281 on The List, submitted by baz.

Because k.d. lang’s cover of Joni Mitchell’s “Case of You” last spotlight was so good, here’s the masterpiece that has the original, from another absolutely iconic Albertan and Canadian.

On the back of a cartoon coaster
In the blue TV screen light
I drew a map of Canada
Oh, Canada
With your face sketched on it twice

Blue is Mitchell’s 4th LP, and probably her most well-known. If you’re not familiar with her work, this is a great place to start.
