FREE: Joan Baez, 20th Century Masters the Best of Original recording remastered

The listing, Joan Baez, 20th Century Masters the Best of Original recording remastered has ended.

This compilation includes some of Baez' best post-60s tracks including her commercial successes Forever Young and a live version of her greatest hit The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down. Fountain Of Sorrow is an exquisite interpretation of the Jackson Browne song, Love Song To A Stranger is magnificent lyrically and I also like her version of Janis Ian's poignant Jesse.
In The Quiet Morning, her moving tribute to Janis Joplin, is a rare track as the album whence it comes (Come From The Shadows) has not yet been re-issued on CD. Gracias A La Vida, from the album of the same name, is a beautiful Spanish song by Chilean artist Violeta Parra. Of course this collection is quite incomplete as it lacks all her great music from the 1960s, a very fertile period.
So in addition and in order to get the complete picture, I recommend the albums Hits: Greatest And Others, the very comprehensive Diamonds compilation, her Dylan album Any Day Now plus the excellent Farewell Angelina and In Concert Volume I from the early sixties, for its pristine early folk sound. This Millennium Collection does showcase some of her most beautiful songs from the early to the mid 1970s and provides a satisfying listen.
