Why This Record Matters
Hejira is widely regarded as one of Joni Mitchell's greatest artistic achievements, blending introspective songwriting with sophisticated jazz-influenced arrangements. The album has become a landmark recording in the singer-songwriter canon.

Collector Note
Released in 1976 on Asylum Records, this US Specialty Pressing features a gatefold sleeve and captures Joni Mitchell at one of the most acclaimed points in her career. Inspired by a series of cross-country travels, the album features richly textured performances from an exceptional group of musicians, including bassist Jaco Pastorius, whose fretless bass became a defining element of its sound. Frequently cited as one of the greatest albums of the 1970s, Hejira remains an essential recording for collectors of folk-, rock-, and jazz-influenced songwriting.
