Following on the success of Paul McCartney's 'Memory Almost Full' album, released on Starbucks' Hear Music label, Joni Mitchell will issue her upcoming long-player as the second album on the ubiquitous coffee chain's new musical outlet. The esteemed Canadian singer-songwriter's impending record, to be called 'Shine,' will be Mitchell's first collection of new material since 1998's 'Taming the Tiger.'

Mitchell has called the LP, currently scheduled for a late September release, "as serious a work as I've ever done." The 10 songs on 'Shine,' which promise to touch upon political, environmental and theological themes, will include a remake of one of her most famous songs, 'Big Yellow Taxi,' as well as the new 'If,' based on the Rudyard Kipling poem.
