Pressed at Optimal in Germany

Without a doubt, one of the most important and influential artists in all of contemporary music, Mitchell is a legendary singer/songwriter and musical icon. Since her 1968 debut LP, the five-time Grammy winner has released a long string of stellar albums as emotionally powerful as they are stylistically diverse. Her 1971 poetic masterpiece, Blue is now completely re-mastered and pressed on 180-gram  vinyl. .

Featuring such memorable songs as "Carey," "All I Want," "California," "A Case of You," and "River," Blue raised the stakes of confessional folk-pop to new levels of honesty and openness. Mitchell's music moves beyond the constraints of acoustic folk into more intricate and diverse territory, setting the stage for the experimentation of her later work. Unrivaled in its intensity and insight, the entire album is perfect from start to finish.Sonically and musically, we cannot give this pressing a high enough recommendation.
 
"With song after song of regrets and sorrow and a smoky-blue cover shot of Mitchell on the edge of tears, this may be the ultimate breakup album. Its whispery minimalism is also Mitchell's greatest musical achievement. Stephen Stills and James Taylor lend an occasional hand, but in "California," "Carey" and "This Flight Tonight," Mitchell sounds utterly alone in her melancholy, turning the sadness into tender art." - rollingstone 
 
"Sad, spare, and beautiful, Blue is the quintessential confessional singer/songwriter album. Forthright and poetic, Joni Mitchell's songs are raw nerves, tales of love and loss (two words with relative meaning here) etched with stunning complexity; even tracks like 'All I Want,' 'My Old Man,' and 'Carey' – the brightest, most hopeful moments on the record – are darkened by bittersweet moments of sorrow and loneliness." –  Music Guide
