8 - Joni Mitchell: Dog Eat Dog (Part Three)

  • Summary

  • In this 4 part series, we dive into Joni Mitchell's 1985 album "Dog Eat Dog," a polarizing departure from her iconic 1960s folk roots. Embracing the digital soundscapes of the time, Joni channeled her frustration with the era's religious, political, and social controversies into a blunt political statement. Joining us to dissect this controversial chapter in Jon''s career is Jacob Ketcham.

    In this episode (Part 3) we will discuss the tense recording sessions and the release of Dog Eat Dog, what songs were popular in 1985, the reception of the album, and why we think it failed.
