Some really good stuff here!!!

"This is legendary Baez!!! Smooth soulful melodies, intricate guitar playing and that incredible voice!!!Note: Make sure you get the Remastered version of this with the 3 extra bonus tracks (for a total of 14 tracks instead of the prior cd version with 11 tracks). Those 3 extra bonus tracks are excellent (one of them is better than any of the songs on the original album). I repeat, do NOT buy the version of this cd that has just the 11 tracks. You need the 3 extra tracks as they're essential!!!"
Vintage Joan!

"I have the LP of this album and it is almost worn thru! I decided that if it was available on CD I would get it as a birthday present to myself! I found this to be one of the best purchases I have made lately. The remastering of the original songs is perfect and the bonus tracks are great! Joan's voice is still clear and sweet and very easy to listen to. Her voice got a more raspy sound on later albums. The bonus tracks were the icing on the cake for me. She covers a wide range of folk songs, from Guthrie's "Ranger's Comand" to "Rock Salt and Nails" by Bruce 'Utah' Phillips. It is interesting to note that the people who made the labels for the album did not know that there is a substance known as Rock Salt that is often used in shotguns as a 'varment load' and therefore list it as "Rock, Salt and Nails!" No matter what you call it I found it to be one of the most haunting songs I have ever heard. All in all, if you like Joan Baez and/or folk music this is a must have. Her version of "One too many mornings" brings back vivid memories of the '60s!"
Retro enjoyment, as good as you remember

"After Eight Belles was put down at the Derby, I remembered the lyrics in Stewball, about don't bet on the little grey mare, most likely she'll stumble, most likely she'll fall... and she does, ....and pulled out my old Baez songbook, my guitar, and records. Then I ordered a few of the same but CDs. They are as good as I remember, and now I cry for Eight Belles when I hear "Stewball"."There But for fortune" is as relevent now as then, all of them are priceless, what a voice!"
