This Flight Tonight: The Songs Of Joni Mitchell

This Flight Tonight is a tribute to Joni Mitchell, featuring her classic song from the 1971 album *Blue*. The event celebrates Mitchell's original recording, which she wrote and produced, playing guitar and singing, with pedal steel guitar by Sneaky Pete Kleinow.

Attendees can expect an evening of Mitchell's music, including the title track that tells of regrets on a flight. The song was later famously covered by Scottish hard rock band Nazareth in 1973, becoming a hit in Canada, West Germany, and the UK. Nazareth's version, produced by Roger Glover, reached number 11 on the UK Singles Chart.

The show offers a chance to experience Mitchell's songwriting in a live setting, with the story of how Nazareth's cover impressed Mitchell herself. She once opened a London gig with a Nazareth song, highlighting the cross-genre appreciation.
