Joni Mitchell – Live at Canterbury House: 1967 (Vinyl 3LP)

Culled from Joni Mitchell Archives Vol. 1: The Early Years (1963-1967), Live at Canterbury House: 1967 Captures a Stirring, Three-Set 1967 Nightclub Performance Recorded in Ann Arbor, Michigan!

Since her debut album arrived in 1968, Joni Mitchell’s songs have been embraced across generations, inspired multitudes of artists around the world, and earned every conceivable accolade. She is now opening her vault for the first time to create the Joni Mitchell Archives, a new series of boxed set releases that will span the next several years, featuring deep dives in to unreleased content from different eras of her storied career. Mitchell has been intimately involved in producing the archive series, lending her vision and personal touch to every element of the project.

Culled from Joni Mitchell Archives Vol. 1: The Early Years (1963-1967), the 180g vinyl 3LP release Live at Canterbury House: 1967 captures a stirring, three-set 1967 nightclub performance recorded at the Canterbury House in Ann Arbor, Michigan. More than a just historic document, these recordings crackle with energy thanks to a vibrant and enchanting Mitchell. Bob Franke, who was covering Mitchell’s show at Canterbury House for the Michigan Daily while also moonlighting as a doorman at the club, pens the liners for Live at Canterbury House. His original review for the Michigan Daily is also included.
