Joni Mitchell - Hejira

Hejira is the eighth studio album by Canadian singer-songwriter and icon Joni Mitchell. The songs on this album were largely written by Mitchell on a car trip from Maine back to Los Angeles, California, with prominent imagery including highways, small towns and snow. Characterized by lyrically dense, sprawling songs, and graced with the overdubbed fretless bass playing of Jaco Pastorius, whom Joni had just met, Hejira continued Mitchell's journey beyond her pop records towards the freer, jazz inspired music she would implement on later recordings.
