More Than Blue: The Genius of Joni Mitchell's 'For the Roses'

103.3 Asheville FM WSFM
January 18, 2018

Recorded on January 18, 2018 as part of Asheville FM's "Music Matters" Lecture Series:

Most people hear the name "Joni Mitchell" and think of her fourth album, Blue. Or they think of her sixth album, Court and Spark. But in between was For the Roses. Lush and somber, stentorian and joyous, wise and wistful, it's a gem of 1972, when Mitchell's voice was at the peak of its versatility.

Join AshevilleFM's Sarah B as she shares her love and knowledge of this often overlooked album, its context, and its ever-compelling creator.
