''Night Ride Home'' is the fourteenth album by Canadian singer-songwriter Joni Mitchell, released in 1991. It was the last of four albums she recorded for Geffen Records. Songs on the album include "Cherokee Louise" about a childhood friend who suffered sexual abuse, "The Windfall (Everything For Nothing)" about a maid who tried to sue Mitchell, and the retrospective single release "Come in from the Cold" about childhood and middle age. The title song "Night Ride Home" (originally titled "Fourth of July" and first performed during promotion for her previous album in 1988) was inspired by a moonlit night in Hawaii. () Though the album contained no charting singles, the track "Come in From the Cold" received airplay on AOR stations. This was Mitchell's first album not to be distributed by the WEA family of labels. She had been signed to WEA's Asylum and Reprise labels in the past, and Warner Bros. Records had been the distributor for Geffen Records from 1980-90. That year, Geffen was sold to MCA Music (now Universal Music Group), as a result, the album was distributed by Uni Distribution Corp. (the distribution arm of MCA Music), which also took over the rest of the Geffen catalogue. , the album has sold 238,000 copies in the US to date. ==Track listing== All songs, words and music by Joni Mitchell; except where indicated #"Night Ride Home" – 3:21 #"Passion Play (When All The Slaves Are Free)" – 5:25 #"Cherokee Louise" – 4:32 #"The Windfall (Everything for Nothing)" – 5:15 #"Slouching Towards Bethlehem" – 6:54 (based on a poem - The Second Coming - by W.B.
