rock critics have tended to "respect" her more than champion her and she's constantly been compared to tracy chapman which must be infuriating - joan is less of a folkie and much more of an auteur (though still sort of a folkie sometimes) but it would be nice if she had the chapman-esque renaissance she deserves because she's been slept on for too long

years before I knew about the whole gay sitting trope I used go through my mother's LPs and just stare at the album art for to the limit and if an album cover can change your life maybe this one did. I wasn't that impressed with the naked version of electric ladyland which my mum was proudest of owning but I just couldn't get enough of whatever joan was doing on that cover

Joan is definitely in my all time favourite artists. Such a pure talent. Walk under ladders is perfection.
