The Joni Mitchell Renaissance
  + stars: | 2023-06-17 | by ( ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: 1 min
Last summer at the Newport Folk Festival, fans of the singer Brandi Carlile were treated to a shocking surprise: a guest appearance by Joni Mitchell, who had been barely seen in public since recovering from an aneurysm in 2015. The joyful performance went old-school viral — a cross-generational feel-good sensation. This month came the second wave of the comeback: a nearly three-hour Joni Jam at Carlile’s Echoes Through the Canyon festival in Washington, that featured Mitchell singing and playing electric guitar accompanied by acolytes: Annie Lennox, Allison Russell, Wendy and Lisa, Sarah McLachlan, and others. On this week’s Popcast, a conversation about how Mitchell was received during her career peak, the recent steps she’s taken toward public performance and how she is remaking her own music in her later years.

After the first few songs — including rousing, singalong renditions of “Big Yellow Taxi” and “Raised on Robbery” — a recognition seemed to ripple through the crowd: Mitchell’s voice had grown even stronger, richer and nimbler in the year since those Newport videos went viral. In that previous performance, Carlile had often guided Mitchell or taken on lead vocal duties herself. But at the Gorge, Mitchell was once again in control. Mitchell held court in pigtail braids, chic sunglasses and a floral silk shirt that billowed in the canyon winds. Part of any Joni Jam is not just singing with Mitchell, Carlile told the crowd, but singing for her.

A powerful god-figure, the High Evolutionary has genetically altered Rocket, other animals and even children to create a perfect race to inhabit his imagined utopia. But the shift also feels belabored and emotionally manipulative; scenes upon scenes of shot, blown up, tortured and incinerated C.G.I. It seems “Guardians” needs this much gratuitous trauma bait to establish its stakes and prove that the bad guy is, in fact, bad. Something like Thanos Lite or a knockoff Dr. Frankenstein, the High Evolutionary represents one of the central problems the franchise is facing in a post-“Endgame” M.C.U. “There is no god — that’s why I stepped in,” the High Evolutionary says at one point.

[1/3] Musician Ozzy Osbourne takes part in a Super Bowl ad for Workday, in this undated handout photo provided by Workday. Big-name celebrities are not uncommon in Super Bowl ads. A 30-second Super Bowl spot this year sold for a little over $7 million, according to a person familiar with the ad sales. “Advertisers want people talking about their brand, and not just during the 30 to 60 seconds of (Super Bowl) air time,” Rucker said. Some stars will poke fun at themselves or their careers in Super Bowl ads.
