We worden de laatste tijd verwend met de mooiste box-sets, maar Joni Mitchell houdt het simpel. Haar studioplaten uit de periode 1968-1979 zijn verpakt in een eenvoudig boxje met tien cd’s zonder ook maar een enkele bonustrack. Toch is dit boxje zijn geld dubbel en dwars waard. Voor een spotprijs krijg je immers acht onbetwiste meesterwerken en twee hele aardige platen in je bezit. Het zijn platen die de vrouwelijke singer-songwriter muziek op de kaart hebben gezet en tot op de dag van vandaag invloed hebben. Met name Clouds, Ladies Of The Canyon, Blue, For The Roses, Court And Spark en The Hissing Of Summer Lawns zijn platen van hoog niveau, die na al die jaren nog niets van hun glans hebben verloren en bovendien allemaal anders klinken. The Studio Albums 1968-1979 is een muzikale ontdekkingsreis die iedere muziekliefhebber gemaakt moet hebben.
