mostly bad I don't believe one can sing "St. Joan Baez has the wrong vocal quality for most of these songs, and the arrangements make little sense. Augustine" worse than Ms. Baez does here, four-square and lifeless, and, gee, if that song screams "Nashville" to an arranger, that person needs another line of work. . Joan Baez Sings Dylan No record store in town carried this item, but I was delighted that Amazon allowed me to purchase it for a Christmas gift!. I love her voice and these songs His words are as on point today as they were then. I saw them together at Forest Hills in the summer of 1964 and fell totally in love. Her interpretations caress the words as his hammer them home. . Nice Way to Hear Joan's Beautiful Vocal & Guitar Instruments She has made "Love is Just A Four Letter Word" her song. I disagree with the statement that Joan Baez isn't the best interpreter of Bob Dylan's compositions. I don't think Mr. Dylan has ever recorded the song and don't know if it shows up on any bootlegs or concert playlists. Joan's version of "Boots of Spanish Leather" is my favorite. I didn't really think it was a special song until I heard her interpretation of it on this record. She has of course recorded more Bob Dylan songs than these but this is a special collection. A bolt! Also buy "Any Day Now" to get the almost 12-minute version of "Sad Eyed Lady" not on the "Baez Sings Dylan" Two astounding albums, Patrick . This CD is staggering.
