- Herbie Hancock-River the joni letters
It was pleasure listening to this CD. The music is wonderful.A must have for all lovers of jazz.
Rating: - Excellent!
I am a big Joni Mitchell fan and I would think that Herbie Hancock did her proud. The fact that she herself is featured on the cd attests to that. The selection of vocalists covering her songs is perfect. Nora Jones did a fine rendition of Court and Spark and I am so impressed with Tina Turner in Edith and the Kingpin. I manage a retail flooring and decorating showroom and I play all my favorite cd's for customer's listening pleasure throughout the day. I have had several people comment on this cd when it plays. "Great music," one woman said as she hummed along. It would make for lovely dinner music too. In my opinion, it's perfectly produced and arranged.
Rating: - a very moving, worthwhile purchase
Love Love Love this man's music. Great for driving, musing, or back ground music.

In response to another review, this IS written by a 20-something who appreciates both these artists.I've been listening to Joni since I was a little kid. My mom had stacks of records that we, as children, would listen to over and over again. Joni Mitchell, thankfully, was in the pile. I have grown to love her music and, more importantly, lyrics since those first childhood rainy afternoon sessions. And having listened equally to the local library's jazz album collections, Herbie Hancock is also in the top ten of my personal jazz favorites list.
If you love the stylings of Herbie and Joni's musical sensibility, you will enjoy this album. As a tribute to JM by HH, I really enjoyed this cd. I would love to see future collaborations. I think it could have done with better selection of the other artists covering the vocal tracks, with the exception of Tina Turner. Whereas Tina Turner brought out the soul of the lyrics, Corinne Bailey Ray did a lousy job. I love that song, but this rendition is so bad I skip the track.
Here's to bringing great/timeless music to younger generations and I hope to see another album from the two of them again!
Rating: - Old Head Music
I don't know what this music sounds like to someone who is 25. I have been listening to Herbie and Joni for 35 years, and for me this collection celebrates each one's artistry. Maybe you need to be a fan of both to really appreciate this; I'm delighted to hear Joni as interpreted by Herbie Hancock. Herbie Hancock! The collection of brilliant guest vocalists is icing on the cake. Pour a martini, shut out the world, and drink in this rich reading of Joni's compositions.
