Mitchell, Joni -The Hissing of Summer Lawns (Vinyl)

Joni Mitchell -The Hissing of Summer Lawns (Vinyl)

The Hissing of Summer Lawns is personal protest music and barbed social commentary as only Joni Mitchell can deliver. The follow-up to her most commercially successful album pursues adventurous jazz-dictated directions, abstract impulses, and tough-minded lyrics that stand in contrast to much of her prior work. As does the songwriting, which sees Mitchell turning further away from introspective portraits and sketching third-person narratives that put her in the roles of observer, mythologist, and impressionist.
