The star says she did not get the recognition she deserved in the 1970s due to music industry sexism.
Many of Joni Mitchell's albums, including Blue and Ladies of the Canyon, are considered masterpiecesJoni Mitchell has said her music did not get the recognition it deserved in the 1970s due to music industry sexism.
"It took to this generation, they seem to be able to face those emotions more easily than my generation," she told Sir Elton in an interview for his Rocket Hour radio show on Apple Music. Her gift is for writing deeply personal, folk-inspired, song-poems that explored the darker sides of life and love. Tracks like Both Sides Now, A Case Of You and River are considered standards.
US President Joe Biden paid tribute to the star at the ceremony, saying: "Her gift touches the range of human nature and the sense of struggle and how we overcome and how we love." The singer also addressed how her voice had changed over the years as a result of smoking and ill-health - noting that she opted to play guitar on Just Like This Train during her Newport concert instead of trying recreate the original's soaring vocals.
