WE CAN THINK OF NO OTHER MORE INFLUENTIAL OR IMPORTANT FEMALE SINGER -SONGWRITER OF THE PAST 50 YEARS THAN JONI. OVER THE YEARS, JONI MITCHELL DEFIED CATEGORIES, DATED EVERYONE OF ANY RENOWN IN SHOW BUSINESS, AND CREATED SOME TRULY LUMINOUS, GORGEOUS MUSIC, THE IMPORTANCE AND SHEER HONESTY OF WHICH TRANSCEND

Quadraphonic recordings of the early 70's may have died an ignoble death because of their hopeless incompatibility with the existing stereo and mono equipment (they can be played on stereo equipment, but not to the full effect) yet, they live on in the hearts of the collectors, and for good reason: some of the finest audiophile recordings ever made - whether rock, soul or classical, were released on some of these, little known and poorly advertised, albums. And, what a gorgeous presentation these recordings are: Sheets of sounds, cascades of orchestration ranging from pianissimo to crescendo, textures which do not exist in any audio- or virtual space and channel separation that is truly a jaw-dropping experience. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the classic rock recordings of the late 1960's and early 1970's, such as this, Joni's multi million seller, which remains hers greatest and most popular work to date. The sound of this recording is descending upon listener as if coming directly from the Heavens. As the sound start swirling from your 4 channel surround sound, you will have a feeling that you are hovering above clouds, watching the universe from some other perspective. This is one of the rare opportunities to acquire this great album in its true, original, primordial audio format., no longer in print, and no longer easily obtainable.). A stunning, jaw -dropping, mouth-watering audiophile experience, not to be missed.  Finding a still sealed original QUAD copy?!?! Forget it – not even a HOPE!!! This may be the last one you will ever see.

·      CONDITION:

·      THE RECORD

(IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!; we  grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight)

(a)         THE ALBUM IS STILL FACTORY SEALED AND IS BELIEVED TO BE PERFECTLY MINT. Please note: sealed items are assumed to be mint and are sold as-is, as we have no way of inspecting them.

(b)         The record is believed to come in its original (quad-specific) stock inner sleeve.

(c)          The record is pressed on a RELATIVELY  thick, inflexible vinyl. This is NOT a thin, flimsy ('dynaflex' type),  vinyl, but not the thickest, most rigid vinyl, either.

(d)         Quad pressing of this title is much rarer, and by far more  preferable to its stereo counterpart. The mix is more natural, humane, "organic" and in some instances (we cannot guarantee) the mixes may be somewhat different than on the stereo version. We estimate that stereo copies of this album outnumber quad by a ratio of at least 30:1.

(e)         Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!

·                          THE COVER

COVER IS STRONG NEAR MINT, STILL SEALED AND COVERED IN ITS ORIGINAL ►SHRINK WRAP

The following flaws or imperfections are noted on the cover:

-       Cover has a small cutout saw-mark (an indent about 3-5 mm long ) on one of its seams.

-       Minor shelf wear noted on the bottom seam (nothing significant)   (VISIBLE ON BACK SIDE ONLY)

NO OTHER VISIBLE FLAWS OR IMPERFECTIONS ON THE  COVER
