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."
