Joni Mitchell - Shine (Hear Music, 2007)

The best thing about the cover for this record (Joni's first for Starbucks' label, where she shares the roster with Macca -- 10 bucks says Elvis Costello signs next) is that thick blue patch that obscures one-third of it. Shades of Blue, Pt. II? (Bleu Deux is catchier.) Not that I'm holding my breath here...but let's hope that ballet scene doesn't mean this is a collaboration with Tim Rice.

[EDIT: Okay, so apparently that thick blue strip isn't part of the original cover shot, and I'm guessing you remove it with the disc's plastic packaging. I'd recommend keeping the CD wrapped in plastic, if possible.]
