The record was a smash, reaching number two on the charts in March of 1974; spawning three hit singles ("Help Me", "Free Man in Paris", and "Raised on Robbery"); and cementing Mitchell's position as a commercial as well as an artistic force.Sean Nelson, a well known musician himself (Harvey Danger, the Long Winters), is particularly well equipped to understand all the elements that went into the making of this classic album, and he does so with clarity and wit.Disclosure: As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
