Joni Mitchell, CC (born November 7, 1943) is a Canadian musician, songwriter, and painter.[LINK: http://www.jonimitchell.com/biography/bio.cfm?id=230] JoniMitchell.com - Biography Mitchell began singing in small nightclubs in her native Western Canada and then busking on the streets of Toronto. In the mid-1960s she left for New York City and its rich folk music scene, recording her debut album in 1968 and achieving fame first as a songwriter ("Urge for Going", "Chelsea Morning", "Both Sides Now", "Woodstock") and then as a singer in her own right. Finally settling in Southern California, Mitchell played a key part in the folk rock movement then sweeping the musical landscape. Blue, her starkly personal 1971 album, is regarded as one of the strongest and most influential records of the time.[LINK: http://www.rollingstone.com/news/story/5938174/the_rs_500_greatest_albums_of_all_time] The Rollin
