Joni Mitchell - Blue

Numbered edition Hybrid SACD

Joni Mitchell's exponentially influential and emotionally candid fourth record

Blue would literally change everything shortly after its release in June 1971. But what's even more remarkable about Joni Mitchell's exponentially influential and emotionally candid fourth record is that, more than 50 years later, the largely autobiographical work continues to alter contemporary music, cultural, and songwriting landscapes.

Deemed the third Greatest Album of All Time by Rolling Stone; universally celebrated by critics, fans, artists, and educators; and defined by a spell of disarmingly vulnerable songs at once confessional, intense, spare, honest, painful, hopeful, and exquisite, Blue charts love, spiritualism, independence, and loss like no music before or since. It is the epitome of brilliance — and sounds more intimate, involving, and inescapable than ever on Mobile Fidelity's numbered edition Hybrid SACD.

Reference mastering posted on 04/04/2024 5 Stars Comparing the earlier audiphile effort (DCC Gold cd / Steve Hoffman) this mastering can easily be better than that which widely considered to be a reference mastering among the audiophiles - to date. This has smoother, parallelly rich-in-detaills sound. Hardly any trace of a "forced digital processing" especially in treble. Eliminated distortion. Beautiful vocal sound. Sounds smoother than DCC Gold cd.. Airy and easy "light as feather" - very pleasant listening. Congrats Mr. Britton!
