Amanda Ghost interviews the original female singer/songwriter, Joni Mitchell , who is about to release her first album of new material since 1998.
Singularly reflective, experimental and sophisticated, the Canadian-born, jazz-influenced folk giant has also nurtured a successful career as a visual artist. Now 63, she remains best known for the songs Both Sides Now, Big Yellow Taxi and Help Me, and enjoys an intense near-cult following. This two-part tribute features Mitchell in an intimate conversation in which she discusses the many aspects of a career spanning four decades. Producer Paul Sexton
