"new" Joni Mitchell album


Today I bought the just released "Songs of A Prairie Girl" that I though was a new album. It turns to be a collection of songs from previously released albums with the exception of a remixed song and one that was edited. There is no clear indication on the cover that it is re-released material.

There is sticker that says " A new collection curated by Joni Mitchell" that is so ambiguous to me that it says they are trying to hide the fact that these are old recordings. If you have a limited collection of Joni Mitchell or none at all it is a fine collection of songs, but I have an extensive collection so I would never have bought this if I had known what it was.

Shame on them for deceiving me or shame on me for being deceived?

How did you miss the song titles? That should have made it obvious the 'collection' was made up of previously released tracks.

If the album has not been previously released, then it is technically a 'new' collection, however misleading it may sound.
