Joni Mitchell: Shades Of Scarlett Conquering (demos, 1975)A kind person sent me a link to this somewhat less than entirely legal site which had all the unreleased - largely acoustic - demos from Joni's (notice how I called her "Joni" there, like we're mates) 1975 smasheroo, The Hissing Of Summer Lawns.
Some of them just aren't as good as the finished versions. Edith And The Kingpin, for instance, has this really annoying phrasing. But this is just, um, lovely. The finest, mildest, most heart-warming speech impediments in pop, that's our Joni.
Check back tomorrow for more Unreleased Canadian Folk Rock, cos I've lined up a doozy!
Enjoy!
