She's trying to do Joni does Jazz.

Or like that Tina Turner cover of 'Edith'.

The '80s Joni Mitchell when she went right off jazz affectations are excruciating.

The final track, Stuttering, was another single which failed to chart. It's one of those songs about stuttering where the artist actually stutters their words.

There's something of the 1980s Stevie Winwoods about it.

It is over.

It was a disjointed, laborious album that lacked memorable songs and conviction.

Now to look back at the the thread and see what everybody else made of it. Excited
