Rest in peace, Clive Davis 💙
Joni first met Clive in 1978, when they were both invited to guest lecture at Yale University. What began there grew into a decades-long friendship. His extraordinary influence will continue to be felt across the music industry for generations.

‘Blue’ celebrates its 55th anniversary today with new audiophile editions from Rhino High Fidelity on limited-edition reel-to-reel and vinyl.
Released June 22, 1971, ‘Blue’ is universally recognized by music critics as one of the greatest albums ever made. Written and produced entirely by Joni, the album was captured during intimate sessions at A&M Studios in Hollywood. The arrangements rely primarily on piano, acoustic guitar, and Appalachian dulcimer, creating a singular work that feels less like a performance and more like a confession.
The reel-to-reel was duplicated in real time from a 1:1 copy of the original flat analog master tape, resulting in a master-quality listening experience that captures the full dynamics of the recording without surface noise or groove wear of vinyl. This reel-to-reel edition is limited to 350 copies worldwide, available exclusively at https://t.co/XMkYDruVau.
The vinyl edition was cut from the original master tapes by Kevin Gray, and is pressed on 180-gram heavyweight vinyl at Optimal in Germany. It comes with a heavyweight glossy gatefold jacket and an exclusive insert featuring a new Q&A with Joni. This vinyl is limited to 5,000 individually numbered copies and is exclusively available here https://t.co/GsYdygHlln.
