Between the previous Jefferson Starship set and Joan Baez's set, famous actor Marlon Brando gave a speech about the importance of education to the vast stadium audience that went over very well.
Rolling Stone Magazine pointed out that Baez was given a difficult task of following that speech with her mellow solo acoustic folk music. But that's what she did, and the audience seemed to enjoy it.
Baez played some of the best songs from her career up until that point. Note though that one of her best known songs and biggest hits, "Diamonds and Rust," was released as a single in April 1975, a few weeks after this concert. So she didn't play that one.
This album is 31 minutes long.

The cover is another case of an exact photo from this concert. In this case, I actually found a decent color one, but I liked this black and white one more. So I had it colorized using the Palette program. But I also looked at that other actual color photo to make sure I got the colors of her clothes and guitar just right.
UPDATE: On October 7, 2024, I upgraded the photo with the use of the Krea AI program.
