I love Joni Mitchell so I could not bring myself to give her zero stars. Yet I strongly dislike this album. What I loved about her music of the past was gone from the Both Sides Now. She is a singer and song writer so great that she did not need to over-orchestration on this cd. I thought her songs came across so much better with just her voice and an acoustic guitar. Plus most of the songs aren't even hers! If you loved songs like The Circle Game, California, and the old Both Sides Now, this is not for you.
