Year : 1976
Almost entirely written during a road trip across the US, "Hejira" is easily Mitchell's most experimental album, with songs that touch upon a range of subjects and emotions. It is also her most cohesive album, with song after song merging effortlessly. Her soft guitar hooks and Pastorius' bass coalesce beautifully in songs like "Coyote", "Hejira" and "Black Crow". Fellow folkster Neil Young pitches in with a harmonica cameo in "Furry Sings The Blues".
Personal Picks : It's a short album. I recommend listening to it in its entirety.
