Watch Joni Mitchell Sing “Woodstock” Last Night with Glen Hansard, Kathleen Edwards, Cold Specks and Others

Jun 19th, 2013 in Music

Last night the much-loved Joni Mitchell performed a few songs, including her chestnut Woodstock at Massey Hall in Toronto at a tribute concert arranged in her honor by the Toronto arts festival Luminato. Watch below as Mitchell sings the song with, amongst others, the help of Glen Hansard, Kathleen Edwards, Al Spx (of Cold Specs) and Rufus Wainwright and Brian Blade’s band. Check out the (unfortunately) partial recording below, with Mitchell sounding great and dancing shoe-less (like the old days), and the other vocalists contributing mightily.  At bottom is a more polished snippet regarding the event via CBC News.  Check out Kathleen Edwards’ smiling, pinch-me moments while singing with Mitchell).  Great to see Joni back in her rightful place on stage singing her masterful songs.
