The 1980 double live album Shadows and Light was Joni Mitchell's second live album and her last release with Asylum Records. She recorded it during the tour for Mingus in September 1979 at the Santa Barbara Bowl. Except for the performance of her classic song "Woodstock," the album focused on songs from her most recent albums, like "Amelia," "Dreamland," and "The Dry Cleaner from Des Moines." The Persuasions, a vocal group popular in the 1960s, also appeared on two songs: the title track and a cover of "Why Do Fools Fall in Love."
