This spellingbindly pure performance from Joni Mitchell never fails to inspire. As a sixties girl, she was unrivalled when it came to writing songs about politics and for capturing the mood of beatnik folkies at a time of great promise and happiness (wars and political drama aside). Her unique guitar style is something that made everything she composed as fresh as the hippy daisies she probably wore in her hair.

Enjoy the video below of her performance on the Johnny Cash show in 1969.
