The three hundred and thirty-eighth album: Joni Mitchell - The Hissing of Summer Lawns
Joni Mitchell's folk is pleasantly welcoming, the jazz and pop sounds feeling immediately recognisable and comfortable with her vocals shaping the music around it. While certainly not always a conventional sound, it feels incredibly familiar and warming to listen to. It's not very complex, but the jazz sound works well with the focus on the vocals and it creates an atmosphere in my mind that I really appreciate.
