The Asylum Albums (1976-1980) will be released on June 21 in 5-CD and 6-LP 180-gram vinyl (a limited edition of 5,000) versions, as well as digitally. These sets are available to order here.

Accompanying the set is a heartfelt essay penned by Meryl Streep, a lifelong fan of Mitchell’s work. She writes: “It’s not just the artifact – music and lyrics – that Joni gives us. Her artistry leaves us, ourselves, changed. She has shifted things around inside us. And that’s how artists change the world.”
