The title of this week's episode comes from a term that legendary rock photographer Norman Seeff uses to describe a truly innovative artist, one who is willing to risk sacrificing their career in order to expand beyond their creative comfort zone. He calls these people “boundary dweller artists.” Norman says that he sees Joni as the archetype of this concept. Her evolution to incorporate jazz influences in the 70s, threw some of her fans for a loop, but as we've heard in previous episodes, Joni was not concerned with what others think. Working with the likes of Wayne Shorter, Herbie Hancock and Charles Mingus, Joni pushed her own boundaries. She pushed Norman's boundaries, too. His photo sessions with Joni Mitchell spanned over 15 years and 12 sessions, and his photography of Joni has appeared in the album packaging and covers for Court and Spark, Hissing of Summer Lawns, Don Juan's Reckless Daughter, Hejira, Dog Eat Dog, and her Hits and Misses compilations. Norman Seeff tells host Carmel Holt that Joni is one of the most courageous people he's ever worked with, and in this fascinating episode that traces Norman's road to Joni and where it led him, we learn how the process of writing and compiling his book Joni: The Joni Mitchell Sessions he realized that he had not only captured Joni's metamorphosis but he also had been led to the guiding philosophy about creativity and the artistic spirit that has guided his work, and his personal evolution.

THE HISSING OF SUMMER LAWNS by Joni Mitchell (Asylum, 1975)Hail, hail Joni Mitchell! A survivor with a roller-coaster history of adventures, both artistic and existential. She's still standing, albeit with a cane - (Polio couldn't fell her; an aneurysm? Piffle!)  From folkie goddess who pierced her madrigals through with a brutal, autobiographical honesty, through her jazzbo period where challenging experimentations were offered with Amazonian bravado. After Blue, my favorite Joni record was Mingus, wherein she introduced me to an hitherto unknown (to me) bass maestro by way of a seamless collaboration. She was loved by many, but was impossible to control, so her romantic paths were marked with scorched earth, but the genius gentlemen left behind could only carry the torch in her name through the ensuing decades. The Hissing of Summer Lawns was dissed upon its release, coming, as it did, on the heels of her biggest hit, Court and Spark, but is now recognized as a masterpiece. She's spreading out here, sonically and vocally. Her fascination with jazz voicing, the impressionist lyrics, a Burundi Drumline, tasty samples and loops - it was all ahead of its time. But, then again, so was Joni. 

"The Hissing of Summer Lawns," released in 1975, is Joni Mitchell's seventh studio album, showcasing her continued evolution as an artist. This album marks a departure from her earlier folk sound, incorporating elements of jazz, pop, and world music. It features complex arrangements and sophisticated lyrics that explore themes of suburban life, cultural expectations, and personal freedom. Notable tracks include "The Jungle Line," which samples African drumming, and "In France They Kiss on Main Street," reflecting her innovative approach to music production and storytelling. " The Hissing of Summer Lawns" is celebrated for its bold experimentation and remains a pivotal work in Mitchell's discography.Listen to the album: ⁠SpotifyApple MusicLinks:Official websiteContactSupport us on PatreonDISCLAIMER: Due to copyright restrictions, we are unable to play pieces of the songs we cover in these episodes.

Joni Mitchell's songs have soundtracked our lives and her pioneering work changed music forever. Jesca Hoop explores her extraordinary story to reveal the life behind the legend.In episode four we follow Joni from 1974 through to 1978. In 1974 Court and Spark is released to huge acclaim but already Joni is heading in new directions musically. This is the era of The Hissing of Summer Lawns, Hejira and Don Juan's Reckless Daughter. Through '74 and '75 she tours extensively and joins Bob Dylan's Rolling Thunder Revue. Her creative restlessness and refusal to be put in a box take her in new directions, but also into controversial territory. “I've always been a creature of change” – Joni MitchellThrough archive, fresh interviews, narration, immersive sound design and an original score, we trace the story of an extraordinary life and explore what makes Joni Mitchell a singular artist: the genius of her lyrics; her incredible talent as guitarist, painter and producer; and her restless drive for innovation.In Legend, we follow Joni from her ‘flatlander' childhood on the Canadian prairies, through the folk clubs of Toronto and Detroit, to a redwood cottage in L.A.'s Laurel Canyon, to a cave in Crete, to a deserted desert highway, to recording studios and stages around the world. From her earliest home recordings to masterpieces like Blue, Court and Spark, and Hejira, we explore some of the stories behind her best-loved songs and celebrate her remarkable return to live performance in 2023: “like seeing, in the wild, a rare bird long feared extinct” (Lindsay Zoladz). Our guide through the series is the California-born, Manchester-based musician, Jesca Hoop. Jesca speaks to musicians like Blake Mills, Allison Russell, Holly Laessig and Jess Wolfe, who have played alongside Joni, and we hear tributes from those, like musician John Grant, who have been inspired and influenced by her music. We also hear from Joni's friends, including Larry Klein and Graham Nash; and from music critics and biographers, including Ann Powers, David Yaffe, Lindsay Zoladz, Kate Mossman, Barney Hoskyns, Miles Grier and Jenn Pelly.The Joni Mitchell Story comes from the production team behind BBC Radio 4's award-winning podcast Soul Music – “… the gold standard for music podcasts…” (Esquire).Producers: Mair Bosworth and Eliza Lomas Production Coordinator: Andrew Lewis Editor: Chris Ledgard Story Editor: Emma Harding Story Consultant: John Yorke Sound Design and Original Music: Hannis Brown Studio Engineers: Ilse Lademann and Michael Harrison Commissioning Editor: Daniel Clarke

Joni Mitchell ist eine Ausnahmeerscheinung in der Popmusikwelt: Dichterin, Komponistin, Künstlerin ohne Grenzen. Bekannt wurde sie als junge Frau im Kreis des Laurel Canyon in Kalifornien Ende der 60er Jahre. Ihre Lieder ragten von Anfang an heraus, die Texte waren ebenso persönlich wie poetisch, ihre Kompositionen waren innovativ und erfinderisch. Lieder wie „Woodstock“ oder „Big Yellow Taxi“ sind bis heute Hymnen einer Generation. Ihr Album „Blue“ wurde zum Maßstab für viele Singer-Songwriter. Joni Mitchell, selbst eine begabte Malerin, versteht sich eher als Künstlerin denn als Popstar. Sie reiste musikalisch weiter zum Jazz und Fusion, kehrte aber in den 80er und 90er Jahren zum Popmusik zurück. Peter Urban hat Joni Mitchell mehrfach persönlich erlebt und interviewt. Im Gespräch mit Ocke Bandixen ordnet der NDR Musik-Experte ihre Stellung in der Musikgeschichte ein und erklärt, worin ihre große künstlerische Bedeutung liegt. Peters persönliche Playlist: Urge for going (1966) – erschienen auf Hits (1996) und Songs of a Prairie Girl (2005) Song to a seagull (1968): I had a king, Cactus tree Clouds (1969): Chelsea morning, Both sides, now Ladies oft the canyon (1970): For free, Ladies oft the canyon, Big yellow taxi, Woodstock Blue (1971): All I want, Little Green, Carey, Blue, River, A case of you For the roses (1972): Let the wind carry me, For the roses, You turn me on, I'm a radio, Blonde in the bleachers Court and Spark (1974): Court and spark, Help me, Free man in Paris, Down to you The Hissing of Summer Lawns (1975): Edith and the kingpin, Don't interrupt my sorrow Hejira (1976): Coyote, Amelia, A strange boy, Song for Sharon Wild Things Run Fast (1982): Chinese Cafe/Unchained melody, Man to man Chalk Mark in a Rain Storm (1988): My secret place Night Ride Home (1991): Night ride home, Passion play (When the slaves are free) Turbulent Indigo (1994): Sunny Sunday, Sex kills, The Magdalene laundries, Not to blame, Borderline Both Sides Now (2000): Both sides, now (Orchesterversion) Außerdem: Archives – Volume 1: The Early Years (1963-1967), erschienen 2020 Archives – Volume 2: The Reprise Years (1968 – 1971), erscheinen im Oktober 2021

The dry summer has played havoc with some South Australian lawns. Stefan Palm joins Jon Lamb and ABC Radio Adelaide's Deb Tribe with advice on how to bring your lawn back from brown to green and tackle winter grass. Also Jon launches his 2019 tomato survey and he needs your help.

In this month's episode we take a look at the events that would result in Joni Mitchell's evolution as an artist on albums like Court & Spark and The Hissing of Summer Lawns.

This week we return with another installment of Contrarian's Canon, our semi-regular series with Ryley Walker where we talk about great albums that for some reason have been maligned or forgotten about in the course of music history. This time, we explore an under-appreciated should-be classic by one of the greatest singer-songwriters ever, Joni Mitchell. While Mitchell is rightly celebrated for landmark '70s albums like Blue, Court & Spark, and The Hissing of Summer Lawns, she continued to put out excellent albums as she entered her 40s. After a fallow period in the '80s, Mitchell forged a comeback with 1991's Night Ride Home, an album that nodded to the jazzy folk sound of 1976's masterpiece Hejira while also reflecting on the changes in her life as a middle-aged artist.  For Walker, Night Ride Home is one of the best albums that Mitchell ever made, and for him the highlight "Come In From The Cold" is one of her best ever songs, with a sophisticated musical and lyrical structure that is communicated with simple, straight-forward grace. We both also confess our love of other early '90s albums by boomer-era rockers, including Jackson Browne's I'm Alive and Van Morrison's Hymns to the Silence. Are these late-career landmarks worth revisiting, or have Ryley and I slipped into an adult-contemporary coma? Step into the smoothness with us!

Playlists for all past Sets of Jazz Gumbo will be found at jazzgumbo.blogspot.ca “Cape Town Fringe”, the long piece in the middle of the Set, sounds to me like I imagine South Africa feels and tastes. It’s a folksy, repetitive number that’s also bright and somewhat festive and also easy-going and fluid. It was my introduction to the music of Abdullah Ibrahim a few decades ago, when he still performed under the name Dollar Brand. It made me a fan. The next of his albums that I got hold of is titled “African Space Program” and features an album cover photo of the broad, dusty Savannah – a nice play on the concepts of folkways and modern progress. I hope you relax into the easy rhythms of the piece. I also came to know Joni Mitchell’s music way back then – must’ve been the 70’s. A friend told me about this album. “The Hissing of Summer Lawns”, is another title that I love, with album art depicting a group of people carrying a python across an expanse of green that fronts a cityscape of both residential homes and skyscrapers. Art & Music. Ideas, Images & Sounds. Mostly old classic works this Set. But give a good listen to the very outstanding newer music. Buble with an oldie but goodie, Ashley Henry with a dynamic pulser, and Polish Mazolewski teaming with American Gonzalez for a very playful and conceptual piece. Thank you for your Ears and for sharing the Love of this Music! Thrive! Kirby

Meet Jesal and Rochard. We are the Transatlantic Rebels. In Episode 27, we take a look at 3 pivotal albums by one of Rochard's favourite singers, Joni Mitchell. Since Jesal is the relative newbie to Joni, Rochard picked out "Court and Spark" (1974), followed by "The Hissing of Summer Lawns" (1975), and finally "Hejira" (1976). (Apologies for the slightly muddled vocals from Jesal, last time that bloody happens). Jesal is from the UK, and Rochard is from America. We like to talk in depth about albums, films, TV shows and books. Rochard has a background in TV, acting, writing and many other areas of art creation. Jesal has a background in music: DJ, producer, artist, critic and other stuff. Enjoy! And follow us on Twitter - @T_Rebels
