Joni Mitchell Archives Vol. 2 follows the format of last year's acclaimed first volume.  (See TSD's interview with Archives co-producer Patrick Milligan here.)  Over 5 CDs or 10 LPs and nearly six hours of previously unreleased studio, live, and home recordings, it chronologically traces Mitchell's musical journey in the period that yielded her first four albums: Song to a Seagull (1968), Clouds (1969), Ladies of the Canyon (1970), and Blue (1971).  Those albums have recently been collected in a companion box set, The Reprise Albums 1968-1971. Once again, Cameron Crowe's conversation with Mitchell about this era will be included in the box's booklet.
