Joni Mitchell Blue - Wow help me Agoners

I just got this CD and I love the honesty and emotion of it. Her voice is wonderful. I have some of her newer ones, but her voice and her raw emotion are so much better on Blue.

The recording is a little thin and wonder if there is a better version out there? Where do I get it? Last, can you Joni fans tell me which other albums are like Blue. I want to buy more of her stuff, but want the emotion, voice and style of Blue.

I know I should be more familiar with Blue as I am 44, but I just played it for the first time today. Now this is art!

For those who may not have seen Steve Hoffman's comments on how he mastered this LP and why it will sound different than an original pressing, you can read is remarks here:

My system is down for my move, so I can't offer any opinion on the results.

Dodgealum, you're welcome. Most of the comments I've read so far are in accord with yours: a very good reissue. I look forward to listening to my copy. I don't doubt Albert's experience with the LP, so maybe there is some variability in the pressings - it is after all a manual process.
