This album is just one of a very large collection I now have - the previous owner purchased the albums at the time of issue , and assures me many were played Once to transfer on to cassette tape. The album sleeves have been stored in thick pvc sleeves since issue - hence the condition is outstanding.

Personnel: Joni Mitchell (vocals, piano, clavinet); Larry Carlton, Wayne Perkins, Dennis Budimir, Robbie Robertson, Jose Feliciano (guitar); Tom Scott (reeds, woodwinds); Chuck Findley (trumpet); Joe Sample (electric piano); Max Bennett, Jim Hughart, Wilton Felder (bass); John Guerin (drums, percussion); Milt Holland (chimes); David Crosby, Graham Nash, Cheech Marin, Tommy Chong, Susan Webb (background vocals). COURT AND SPARK continued Joni Mitchell's transition from folk-singer to sophisticated rock auteur. Crafted songs are bathed in a warm, textured backing, courtesy of Tom Scott's L.A. Express, a sinuous jazz-based combo. Her expressive voice weaves in and around engaging melodies that support and enhance the imagery suggested by evocative, personal lyrics. The title track alone is worth the price of admission, but the gorgeous lilt of "Help Me" and the elegant sweep of "Free Man In Paris" show an artist in firm control of her craft. A measured, thoughtful album, COURT AND SPARK confirmed Mitchell as one of the most important and subtle talents of the rock era.

I add new listings most days ....... Please take a look

I usually start auctions at a low price to generate interest in bidding

All items are graded Audio / Visually , and played on a high grade system

Please feel able to bid with confidence , as a collector myself I understand the requirements in the gradings of discs and sleeves , and how important it is to recieve items in the condition as advertised

I grade items ( using the UK Record Collector Grading System) beneath a light , to be sure of condition

I do not believe it is necessary to use the eBay buzzwords such as STUNNING !! RARE !! AWESOME !! , padded out with grossly long winded 'descriptions' ..... Many of the 'experts' who use this method of selling also add technical information , which is totally unfounded and does not correspond with the actual facts , and would be laughable but for the fact it is totally misleading. I take time and care to graded items correctly , and only list quality records , with concise , accurate grading descriptions

I have been a lifelong music fan , my first concert visit was in 1957 (Birmingham Town Hall Skiffle Contest !) and have bought records of all the great music since 1959 , and had the privelege of seeing most of the great artists 'live' ( I saw The Beatles twice and Segovia !)

I began selling professionally in 1976 , and have a wide knowledge of the items I sell (and always learning !) having bought copies of my own at time of issue , always being interested in the sleeve , label and disc variations. If you have any queries , I will do my best to answer correctly

Please check my feedback ratings , you will see that a large amount are from repeat buyer ( many thanks !) .... and in the event of genuine complaints will remedy the situation as soon as possible
