Title: De-Klein
Review: Far from her best...so far it is hard to recall that she ever produced her best while listening to this mess. Klein is short for DeKlein in my book. His bland overcooked production turned Mitchell from her most exciting path (her jazz explorations) to boring MOR dreck. Why she continues to use him as a producer remains a mystery. As a longtime Mitchell fan I often feel robbed of several years that could have followed through on the promising directions of Summer Lawns and Hejira. Instead he lead her in a downward spiral and finally inactivity. His track record speaks for itself, producer of an audiophile who's who of bland singers marketable only to the absurd egos of audiophillia, who typically listen to snippets of sound, rather than whole songs, let alone whole albums. Sadly his latest victims are Luciana Souza and Raul Midon, both of whose talents he has squandered, as sis his norm.
