The Reprise Albums (1968-1971) Debuts Newly Remastered Versions Of
‘Song To A Seagull’, ‘
Clouds’, ‘Ladies Of The Canyon’, And ‘Blue’

On 22 June this year Joni Mitchell‘s ‘Blue’ will be 50 years old. To mark the occasion, Rhino is releasing a four album collection called The Reprise Albums 1968-1971, the next instalment of the Joni Mitchell Archives series.

Process which involves going back to the original multi-track tape and remixing as well as remastering of Song To A Seagull (1968) and remastered versions of Clouds (1969), Ladies of the Canyon (1970) and Blue (1971).

The reason Song To A Seagull has been remixed is because “The original mix was atrocious,” according to Mitchell. “It sounded like it was recorded under a jello bowl, so I fixed it!”
