What's the cheapest, most frequently used
method of changing moods and feelings,
picking yourself up or getting thoughtful,
forgetting it all or drowning in self-pity?
If you said greens and reds, do not pass go,
do not collect $200, because it's music.
Radios and record players are really
manipulators of mood and attitude, if you let
them be.
With the radio, you're at the whim of some
disc jockey who's been told to play mostly
forget-your-troubles music. So people who
want complete control over the mood
usually turn to their stereos, and that's where
Joni Mitchell comes in.
Her first four albums (Song to a Seagull,
Clouds, Ladies of the Canyon and Blue)
represent an intensely personal experience.
She used almost no backup at all, so it's just
you listening and Joni pouring her heart out
in your living room.
Most of the things she has to say in these
albums are either depressing, thoughtful, or
deeply emotional. And most importantly,
there are overtones of sadness, of pessimism,
of loneliness, and they leave their impression
on you.
. So if you wanted to get depressed,
emotional, or challenged into thought, you
spun a Joni Mitchell album. This
understandably created a small but die-hard

audience for her records most people don't
really want music that depresses them,
makes them think or turns their thoughts to
old lovers. At least not very often.
Enter album five, For the Roses. Good
news for people previously turned off by her
music the new record is not nearly as
depressing and is not as much of a personal
challenge to the listener. Even though the
music is more accessible, the emotionality
remains, with overtones of pessimism and a
sort of sadness that things turn out as badly
as they do in love.
Now, the latest, Court and Spark. Good
news for everybody. This is the tightest, most
ambitious album musically to come along in
a while from anybody. For you Joni Mitchell
freaks, a little bit of everything she's ever
done right is in this album, along with some
new directions. The diversity of the album is
its most outstanding characteristic.

The Last Detail Tale of two sailors
taking a third to prison. A marvelously
robust and human film, both funny and sad,
with an unusual understanding of certain
types of emotions. Superlative acting. CH
The Sting Con comedy is itself a con
with some pretty moldy material being
turned into excellent entertainment by some
talented hands. It's too big and tends to
drown in overproduction, but it's a sure fire
audience pleaser. CH, D
Serpico True story of an honest cop. It is
sloppily done and much too vulgarized. Still,
the film has an understanding of some of the
subtleties of corruption, and the story itself
packs quite a punch. Worth seeing for
that. D
The Exorcist William Friedkin brings to
this devil film the same slam-bang direction
he brought to The French Connection. Some
of it is effective at the moment, but the film as
.a whole is pure manipulative trash.
Disgusting in more ways than one. CH, D,

Court end Spark's instrumentalists are as
good as Joni has ever found I cannot say
enough about her woodwinds and reeds
man, Tom Scott, who overtracks to make an
entire wind section at times.
Two of the album's best songs would be
nothing without the excellent trumpet of
Chuck Findley. And JonPs choice of layed
back, subtle percussion work from John
Guerin, and big, driving bass lines mostly
from Wilton Felder are the cement that
holds the whole album together.
Backup vocals come from a group ranging
from Jose Feliciano to David Crosby to
Ch'eech & Chong, plus Joni overtracking
time and again. The whole sound is smooth
and together, with things going on below the
surface as well as in the lyrics.
And the lyrics of Court and Spark
represent some of the new directions for Joni
Mitchell. There are two songs for fun a

rock'n'roll and a blues and the remaining
nine are in varying degrees about love and
the times we live in.
There isn't much pure social comment,
and none of the songs are pure love songs
ma;t are a blend of the two. Questions fill the
entire album a tone of bewilderment at
where America is going.

Of all the things in Joni Mitchell's earlier
works, everything is there in Court and
Spark except the pessimism. You get the
feeling, in the midst of her questions, that
maybe even she now feels there can be
answers.
