Free Music Notes for Both Sides NowFree Music Review: Joni Mitchell / Both Sides Now Hit: 5 StarsI have the HDCD and this DVD-A really shines! A big overall far more dynamic sound. Great!
Free Music Review: Both sides now Hit: 3 StarsIt is a good selection of Joni's music with classics including "Chelsea Morning" as well as "Both sides now". Enjoy!
Free Music Review: Fantastic Hit: 5 StarsIf you like the classic Joni Mitchell - this will be a surprise. She comes on as a throaty jazz/blues singer. It is not contrived - she has assumed and become one with this style.
She sings some of her classic - A Case of You - with a new, slower, and very satisfying version.
The orchestra and recording quality are first rate.
Highly recommended.

Free Music Review: 5 Stars for the title song Hit: 5 StarsIt isn't possible for me to listen this version of Both Sides Now without being emotionally moved. The rest of this cd is icing on the cake.
Definitely not everyone, not even a lot of hardcore Joni Mitchell fans - I wouldn't put myself in that camp - this collection of jazz standards and one remarkable remake of one of her early classics is one fantastic package.
Free Music Review: Joni's Missed Sell Hit: 4 StarsUpon sampling this cd, I was elated that Joni had recorded such established jazz classics with an accomplished and stylized rendering. After several intent listenings, I've changed my mind: Age has crept into her voice, thinning its power, even if for the sake of the material. Still, on certain numbers I feel it detracts rather than enhances; her unique sound is sacrificed. There is a sorry uniformity to her approach, and while I feel the entire work is good, it seems lacklustre despite obvious effort on Ms. Mitchell's part.
