Hejira - Joni Mitchell (1976)

I was going to write up her live album Shadows And Light because it featured Metheny and Pastorius in the band, but honestly, the original albums are better.

Mitchell was a great guitarist and singer, whose tastes ran as much to jazz and art pop as to the folk artists she’s often grouped with.

This is a classic album full of evocative lyrics and lovely melodies.
