@@FactsVerse Honestly, I have to listen 👂 to some of her songs before I can answer that, but I truly respect ✊🏽 her impact on the musical culture. I’m sorry that I couldn’t answer your question.
I first heard Joan when she came and sang at my High School in 1955. I was not particularly influnced by her, as I had already taken up guitar and was singing a lot at summer camp and in my High School Acapella Choir. I was a pretty good singer, but I admired her guitar work. After 70 years of singing and playing I still admire her guitar work. She plays with a strong but delicate style. Unfortunately, for me, everywhere I sang I was compared with her all my professional life. Being a soprano didn't help me. But I must say, I admire her and always have. She used her fame to work for non violence, peace, integration with all the world's people. She brought songs like Joe Hill to a wider audience. I knew about Dylan, whom I also have always admired. There is one album that I think stands out among all the albums she had made. It is called "Baptism" & is wonderful poetry, some set to music which she sings. The cover is a painting of her profile. There are marvelous poems but I doubt that many have heard of it. She has earned a rest and she feels her voice is not what it was. Mine still is and I am so grateful. I'm 83. I chose to work with families, passing on old songs to new ears. Joan came into our Palo Alto gallery a few times & people would ask who that woman was. We found her very nice and appreciative of our work and yes, her charisma was intense. Oakland CA 2023
She has always had one of the most incredible voices in music. I love her version of Forever Young! As for her relationship with Dylan, it is pretty much summed up in her song Diamonds and Rust. Many thanks to her for all the great quality of her work. I sometimes think entertainers don't fully appreciate the value of their contributions to our society. I hope she does so.
Joan Baez, 82? She looks extremely well for her age...she is aging very gracefully. Wondered about her and Bob Dylan, now I know...they were both music icons in their day. Thanks for the update, Facts Verse! 👍🤗
I loved Joan Baez and saw her in person several times. So talented and admired addressing the problems of the sixties and seventies. Also loved the protest songs of Bob Dylan. I think Folk music of the early 60s led to musical comments on happenings of the times. So very sorry Joan Baez was treated in a shabby manner by Bob Dylan. Joan Baez is an Icon and should not ever have felt less than other people. No one can sing with a beautiful voice and has her presence. She is an exceptionally talented, gifted artist. I should love to peruse her book of line drawings. Sounds fun and interesting!
We're very happy to know that you had a chance to see Joan in person! Thank you so much for sharing your life story. Which of her songs appealed to you the most?
@@kateskeyswhy do people like you have to run people down, Joan Baez is/was a tireless pitting the truth about downtrodden people of all types in the consciousness of others. Protesting against war, racism, feminist issues and for unions!
Joan was the one who introduced Bob to a wider audience when she took him to the Newport festival in 1963. It was inevitable that they would develop a romantic relationship. I always thought that Dylan must have felt a bit smothered by her and am convinced she really loved him. Her autobiography "And a voice to sing with" is beautiful. She writes among other things about Woodstock, where she appeared and some of the musicians. Janis joplin and her hopeless fall into alcoholism gets a special mention.
20aug23 An album of Joan Baez , including (Old Dixie Down,) will make a nice Christmas present, to myself.: Dec 2023.What a wonderful voice, and captivating smile.
songs I like: Silver Dagger, Donna Donna, Diamonds & Rust, Speaking of Dreams, Carrickfergus, Strange Rivers, The Moon's A Harsh Mistress, Lady Di and I, God is God, Play Me Backwards, The Things That We Are Made Of, If I Were A Carpenter, The River In the Pines, House of the Rising Sun, One Too Many Mornings, Prison Trilogy, Stephanie's Room, Forever Young, ... many more
The one song that I remember is The night they drove old Dixie down.... I remember that song because I grew up listening to that kind of music... I listen to various kinds of music today, but the oldies stands out to me...... They don't play music like that anymore........................
M'y favorite song IS spanish boots of spanish leather.She turned Dylan's composition intro a gem with her voice singing both high and low as into a conversation between two lovers separated by distance, one of which IS not sure as to his feelings. Thé background orchestration IS so créative and emphasizes every word of thé song.
Her whole childhood family members passed away. Her sister in 2001, dad in 2007, mom in 2014, and last sister in 2016. She had a husband but got divorced and never spoke to him again. Her son moved on with his own life. She lives alone but is at peace.
yes, and arrives from techno relationships archives weekly. There is a few artists out there that maybe be wise and follow the example of Joan Baez by leaving the stage. I love Joan Baez's songs and she knew when to call it a day but who knows there is a good chance the nostalgia for the winds of the old days will return and like Judy Collin will return to the stage with her voice sounding better than ever. love her!
I don't think Joan expects a personal apology from Bob after all these years. many interviews suggest otherwise. They are ok with each other, so I doubt this "regret".
It’s incredible to realize that Mimi’s first husband, Richard Farina, was killed violently and ironically at the age of 29 in 1966. He was the greatest dulcimer player of all time , accompanied by Mimi.
RIP Dave McGowan! Thank you for your stellar research into the reality that the entire music industry was a military psyop. Joan sings a song about human sacrifice taking place in Mexico; Bob Dylan during an interveiw on 60 Minutes admitted to selling his soul for fame. These people are very dark
Thank you Joan. Your a beatulfull person both inside and out as long as you can strum and hum please don’t stop playing how about a show for st Jude’s childrens hospitel maby get a bunch of different mushians to get involved like USA for Africa concert I know we are all getting older Just one mour show for the sake of all the children that are sick and suffering the money earned just might be the donation that finds that magic bullitt. Magic cure
Dylan is a scumb bag for how he treated her. If it wasn't for her getting his career started when she protested on stage and refused to sing unless they let him sing and that's just one of many things she did to help him get started. And he was not even man enough to apologize to her!
Misinformation again Tim, Baez is still making music in her home studio in Hilo, Hawaii, as well as public concerts around the country. You might consider having a "talk" with your writer(s) and researcher(s).
Hilo? I thought she was in the oak and redwood Forests of No. Cal. Haven't seen her at Merrie Monarch or the Farmer's Mkt. You never know. Hilo has an amazing bunch of artists and musicians. Auntie Edith Kanaka'ole in who's Tennis Stadium Merrie Monarch takes place is honored and is on the new US quarters.
That's comical...that she had a powerful voice?! ..she could have been a high school choir aspirant...she leaned left..thus the complimentary words used to describe her.

thankyou, Joan, for being a part of my life.
Thank you too for your message for Joan. Which of her songs appealed to you the most?
Obviously, young man, you are not old enough to have been there, otherwise you would know she was the best of them all.
She was born rich and launched a career via daddy money.

Absolutely! What is your favorite song of JOan?
Sweet Sir Galahad the way she originally played and sung it.
Sweet Sir Galahad was about Mimi's boyfriend who she later married Milan Melvin who used to sneak into her bedroom window.
M'y favorite song IS spanish boots of spanish leather.She turned Dylan's composition intro a gem with her voice singing both high and low as into a conversation between two lovers separated by distance, one of which IS not sure as to his feelings. Thé background orchestration IS so créative and emphasizes every word of thé song.

"Love Is Just A Four Letter Word " Dylan wrote it. Joan owns it.
Favorite song: Love Song to a Stranger. Yes, knew about love affair with Dylan.

Never heard any of her music but I am familiar with who she is

I read her autobiography and she did not mention a romance with Bob dylon.. where is her son, Gabe and ex-husband, Dave now.
Dixie...typo

Joan Baez wanted change, well we got change all right, and it sucks for the nation and the world now.

It's becoming to be a real joke with these fun facts. Like he thinks Tom Selleck is Dead. 😊
The Night They Drove Old Duxie Down was her best song....Bob Dillon is a wank!
