Joni Mitchell documentary on CBC Radio 2
Inside the Music is a smart, thoughtful radio series that ran recently on CBC Radio. Each episode is a stand-alone doc about an essential Canadian album (we’re waiting for the canonization of The New Pornographers‘ Mass Romantic, but this is still good stuff). In the segment on Joni Mitchell’s Blue, Katrina waxes whiny about her angsty teen relationship to the record. She’s in good company, sharing the stage with Camille Paglia and Sheila Weller, who wrote an interesting book about Mitchell/Carly Simon/Carol King. Listen to all of the episodes here and read more about Weller’s book, Girls Like Us, here.
