Joan Baez - Baez Sings Baez, Volume 1: 1967-1971 (A Fabio from Rio Guest Post)

Here's an album that was entirely made by guest poster Fabio from Rio. I just helped it along here and there, for instance making the cover art. Recently, Fabio really got into the music of Joan Baez, and devoured all 40 or so of her albums. He thought she was almost entirely about singing cover songs. But as he listened to those albums, he discovered many good songs that were written by her. So he came up with the idea of compiling all of her original songs, to show that she's had a lot of songwriting talent, as well as singing talent. He found about 70 songs, enough for five albums. This is the first one.

A well known Joan Baez compilation album has the title "Baez Sings Dylan," and consists just of her covers of Bob Dylan songs. Fabio came up with the idea of riffing on that, and calling this series "Baez Sings Baez." So that's what we're calling it. And the font type, color, size, and so on is a close match to the "Baez Sings Dylan" cover.

Fabio has a lot more to say about this. But, like guest poster Mike Solof does, he prefers to put his comments in a file that's included in the download zip. So please give that a read to learn a lot more. 

Everything here comes from officially released studio albums, so the sound quality is excellent. 

This album is 57 minutes long.

I mentioned above how I made the cover art as an homage to the cover of the official album "Baez Sings Dylan." Fabio selected the photograph. All I know about it is that it dates to 1965.
