What a birthday gift Joni Mitchell got today. One of our great artists celebrates her 77th birthday today. It’s been a great life and a great career. She’s been so influential and given us such happiness, we can only send her our best wishes for terrific health and well being for years to come.

Joni’s gift to us, of course, is her new collection of archival material on Rhino. You shouldn’t miss it. I listened to it on Spotify but you must have the CDs and the book to dig down deep. So many great versions of “Both Sides Now”! And the the next box will be the home run!

Showbiz411 is now in its 13th year of providing breaking and exclusive entertainment news. This is an independent site, unlike the many Hollywood trades that are owned by one company. To continue providing news that takes a fresh look at what's going on in movies, music, theater, etc, advertising is our basis. Reader donations would be greatly appreciated, too. They are just another facet of keeping fact based journalism alive.
Thank you
