CD Reviews

Again, not just a pretty voice
J. L. Hodges | Tulsa, OK United States | 11/25/2001
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Although she lamented and mocked an early description of her voice as "the achingly pure soprano", it serves her well on this mostly acoustic live recording. Her facility for language renders her music a gift to the entire planet as she reaches into the lives and people of many cultures. Whether it is a song she has written, or that of another, her heartfelt presentation makes it hers to share with her audience. From Paul Simon's lament "The Boxer" to the Broadway favorite "Don't Cry for Me, Argentina" to the 60's protest "Blowin'in the Wind" she entertains and enlightens. The raw feeling allowed by the live recording adds an intimacy and connection with Baez and her audiences around the world."
