 Complete A&M Recordings ...At Last
Submitted on: 2009-06-18 |

It is great to finally have all of the A&M stuff together but I agree with some of the points made by others. I feel that it is a bit of a mess as a set and not terribly well thought through as far as the packaging goes. I got the one with no track list on the discs and the only easy guide as to what is on the discs is on the back cover of the box and that is not set out very well either. I have made up my own detailed track list to slip into the booklet. As someone else said, there are no reprints of the original covers and the way the albums role over from one disc to the other looks lazy and as if whoever put it together just didn't really care about doing it right. What a shame. I would have been most happy to pay a little more for some thought, insight and effort deserving of the legend that is Joan Baez.
That said, it is all here finally and to that end, a most welcome addition to my huge Joan Baez collection. |

| Joan Baez is an acquired taste. I acquired the taste in the late sixties and it's as strong as ever. This back-catalogue replaces some of my most favorite albums. It has a place of honor in my collection. Gracias a la Vida, Viva Joan Baez! |

| It was refreshing to hear again one of the great voices of the protest era! The recordings were of excellent quality. |

The best of the best of Baez

After pleading and cajoling with A&M records for years, they finally remastered the recordings Joan Baez made while with their label and released them in one package. Her most politically sound and vigorous recordings were during this turbulent time in US history.
"Where Are You Now, My Son?" contains an audio recording of Baez' visit to Hanoi during Christmas of 1972 which included some of the worst of the US bombing raids. The plaintive voices of parents whose children have been killed by American bombs dropped from the sky is heartbreaking all these decades later.
The A&M collection also includes "Gulf Winds", of which the autobiographical song of the same name is worth the price of the entire set. It is Baez, a guitar and her voice telling her childhood in her own words. It is hauntingly beautiful as it explores concerns that are still of interest as she describes what it was like to grow up a brown-skinned girl in a world that values only white. "From Every Stage" is a live recording featuring Joan acoustically and with a band. One of the show stoppers on this album is her rendering of "Lily, Rosemary and the Jack of Hearts" from the recently released "Tangled up in Blue" by Bob Dylan. This CD includes two pieces never released before to sweeten the deal. This really is a wealthy of goodies for Joan's fans. |

Joan's best Record on this great CD set
Submitted on: 2006-09-10 |

For years I have been looking to replace my lost, "Come from the Shadows LP".On this great collection of Joan Baez recordings is the complete album.
Come from the Shadows contains memorable tracks such as Prison Trilogy,Imagine,and To Bobby.
This disc is worth the money of the set on its own however the other recordings contain some classic Joan.
Highly recommended for all Joan Baez fans. |
