I'm doing 10 Joni Mitchell album tracks

3. Little Green (track 3 on Blue)

This feels incredibly personal, even without knowing the context, which people didn't for another 20 years.

A lot of people might have picked the first two from Hejira and I wouldn't have questioned it!

Thanks. I'm only familiar with the earlier stuff but still a challenge!

Saw someone had put The Headmaster Ritual as number 1 yesterday, and had to check if it was you!

#ArtistFaveAlbumTrax
I'm doing 10 Joni Mitchell album tracks, starting with Track 1...

1. I Had a King (from Song to a Seagull)

Debut album first and what an introduction

70s Bowie is good, especially where you could choose one song from each (non Pinups) album! I'll probably do Joni Mitchell though.

I was thinking of doing one artist

The Clash - Ivan Meets G.I. Joe (Remastered - Official Audio) YouTube video by theclashVEVO

I've enjoyed Sandinista more than your average Clash fan for about 35 years, and yet it is only today I learn that it was Topper Headon who did the main vocal on 'Ivan meets G.I. Joe'

This is a great display for anyone interested in local history and Stockport.

A lot of good looking albums out today, but I'm still catching up on those from last week - Avalon Emerson might need more of my attention

Clairo - Immunity (2019)

I'm sure if I thought about it for longer I'd come up with better albums, but this was the one of my highlight discoveries of that COVID year. Prefer this album to some of her more critically acclaimed follow ups.

Forgot to do one yesterday so have had to double up today. I'm fine with this actually as there's not much between 7 and 8.

10. Joy

A more 'accessible' single from them which maybe why I have it lower in the rankings. Seems a bit odd placed as the final album track as well imo.

Cheers, on further inspection it was familiar. Hadn't clocked the Manchester link originally

Email header showing a headline for a news article. The headline says 'Meet the AI goth helping Manchester's far right'

Didn't have this headline on my bingo card for 2026 @manchestermill.bsky.social

Love those notifications about artists you 'follow' on TIDAL when a random act with the same name gets lumped in with them.

I'm guessing this isn't the same Habibi as the Brooklyn indie 5-piece I'd prefer to hear about?

When I lived in Chester, and had hair, I used to go to Bromley's on Northgate St. Glad it's still there but it may have changed in the last decade!

I recall there was also a random one at the back of Boot's/Tesco near the gun shop (Queen Street) which was quieter and cheaper.
