5.0 out of 5 stars Great Music - Overpriced Package, February 24, 2000

Joni Mitchell as turned out a wonderful collection of songs, Very pleasant to the ear. Unfortunately, as a dedicated fan I purchased the Limited Edition version of the CD. Mine came loose in the shipping resulting in scratching (it is very poorly secured). Lithos are very poor quality, I can't even begin to consider them limited edition quality, (were better on the last album by far). Wait for the regular CD, sans overpriced packaging and you'll love it!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Revelation, February 9, 2000

This is not your father's Joni Mitchell. Nothing in her career prepared me for this album, not even her fine "Mingus" project. Joni's interpretations of these songs are warm, vulnerable, technically beautiful and (note to those who fear Joni is out of her element) completely authentic. Her phrasing is impeccable, and her mature voice is husky, flexible, gorgeous. Her new versions of "A Case of You" and the title track brought me to tears.

One caveat: the packaging on this limited edition is beautiful, but impractical. The CD is not secure in the box, and mine arrived scratched. As difficult as it may be, it would be prudent to wait for the traditional jewel-case release in March if you want to ensure yourself a playable copy.

3.0 out of 5 stars GREAT MUSIC - HORRIFIC PACKAGING, February 18, 2000

I have always loved the music of Joni and this CD is the best thing she's done in a long time. I especially enjoy her re-recording of "A Case of You". However, the packaging in this Limited Edition is absolutely terrible! It is certainly not worth paying almost triple the price of a regular CD. I highly suggest that you wait until it is released in March without all of the fancy packaging.
