1969: Today's issue of Rolling Stone announces that Joni is hanging it up.
An excerpt:
"Joni Mitchell has announced her public retirement, claiming her
performance schedule has made it impossible to continue a song writing
career and develop her interest in painting. "She hasn't been able to write
since trying to become a super star," [Elliot] Roberts said. "Next fall,
after she gets some more material together, she may want to do some
isolated concerts again, but I doubt it. Performing just isn't what she
wants these days."
