338. Joni Mitchell - The Hissing of Summer Lawns

Release Date: 1975
Label: Asylum

Joni Mitchell surprised me last time out with the beautiful 'Court and Spark'. This time round she disappoints me. By the time we get to this album, Joni has ditched her sweet, accesible music and melodies for something more experimental and jazz-influenced. It isn't terrible, in fact, some of it is quite nice, but compared to Joni's ealier works it pales. Perhaps it is one of those albums that need to grow on you. 

Rating: 7/10
