Joni Mitchell and Neil Young: Here They Are, In The Years


Joni Mitchell and Neil Young - December, 1969
Heathrow Airport, England

The recent announcement of the discovery of rare concert recordings of Neil Young, Joni Mitchell and others from 1968 has created a slight bit of confusion.

Some publications interpreted the news that the concert recordings included Neil Young and Joni Mitchell together. However, the recordings are of separate concerts by Young and Mitchell. Nonetheless, it did allow us to compile quite a photo gallery of Joni and Neil over (and in) the years.

Here's a ring for your finger

Shines like the moon..."

    The "1975" picture is from 1976... a Joni Mitchell show that Neil came out for the encore.

    The 1977 photo is actually Neil and Joni arriving for the recording of Tears Are Not Enough, the 1985 charity single by Northern Lights (the Canadian equivalent of USA For Africa or Band Aid).

    And the 1975 photo is at the launch party of Tonight's The Night.

    The "1978" photo of Joni is actually 1967.

    And that 1975 TTN launch party was at Studio Instrument Rentals, not the Roxy (where the material was played live in 1973).

    Thanks for all the updates. Looks like we need to get busy here. Also, we'll have to look into our photo archivist's data entry... thrashette, we need you!
