Blue (Joni Mitchell album) – Wikipedia<\/a><\/p>\n

Blue<\/b><\/i>\u00a0is the fourth studio album by Canadian singer-songwriter\u00a0Joni Mitchell<\/a>, released on June 22, 1971, by\u00a0Reprise Records<\/a>. Written and produced entirely by Mitchell, it was recorded in 1971 at A&M Studios in\u00a0Hollywood<\/a>, California. Created just after her breakup with\u00a0Graham Nash<\/a>\u00a0and during an intense relationship with\u00a0James Taylor<\/a>,\u00a0Blue<\/i>\u00a0explores various facets of relationships from love on “A Case of You<\/a>” to insecurity on “This Flight Tonight<\/a>“. The songs feature simple accompaniments on piano, guitar and\u00a0Appalachian dulcimer<\/a>. The album peaked at number 3 on the\u00a0UK Albums Chart<\/a>, number 9 on the\u00a0Canadian\u00a0RPM<\/i>\u00a0Albums Chart<\/a>\u00a0and number 15 on the\u00a0Billboard<\/i>\u00a0200<\/a>.<\/p>\n
