Haim‘s Alana Haim has recalled the time she thought her mother might have been Joni Mitchell.Speaking in a new interview, the singer and her sibling bandmates Danielle and Este have opened up on their love for the ‘Big Yellow Taxi’ singer-songwriter and her 1974 live album ‘Miles Of Aisles’.“That was pretty much the only CD that was in our mom’s car – I don’t think she knew how to change the CD, so every time she turned on the car, that’s what would play,” Alana told Rolling Stone.“And because I was so young, and because my mom knew all the songs and would sing every word, I thought my mom was Joni Mitchell at one point.
