And just as essential. I believe that Joan's first three albums were her most astoundingly successful of her entire career and many of the songs she sang on this album were sung by others as well, Peter, Paul, Mary, Mary Hopkin.to name a few. Highly recommended.
When I hid away in the attic with my guitar, the record player and your first album, I learned every move I was going to use on the girls until I worked my way up to you. It's been 50 years since and I believe I'm ready.
This was the best thing I ordered (Ever). Her voice, her music brings you back to another time. Thank you.
I found some of the energy of the era revive within me. All the great Joan Baez tunes are here. Listening to it, I found myself back in my dorm room in college, singing along, remembering the words after all these years. What a great time to be young and what a scene to witness. If you loved her then, you'll love her again when you listen to this CD.
This early Joan Baez folk vocal and guitar CD is a gem from the past. Her pure, powerful vocals can bring chills to the listener on songs like "Plaisir D'Amour", "Banks of the Ohio" and "Lily of the West". These are not originals, but she takes over ownership of a number of them. I think this disc is the best of early Baez.
