rating: 5 QuoteA Blessed voiceQuote
The crisp rendition on this remastered cd does full justice to Joan Baez's heavenly voice. This is one of her best sets as it has several hits and lesser known gems and very few low spots, which mar some of her albums. A must have if you love her voice and her poetry. November 6, 2007

I first bought this album on vinyl in the 1970s, loved it and lost it. It's such a pleasure to have it again on CD format. This is Joan Baez with her beautiful voice at its best. Enjoy. October 10, 2007

i seem to have overlooked this item among others for some time. Joan Baez's musical interpretations have always been a favorite of mine -- since the time of my youth -- and she's one of the very few artists who's cover versions i can live with. this is release belongs to a selection of CDs i must have as a complete set. few bonus tracks here though, that weren't released with the previous CD release. :-(

rating: 5 QuoteManufacturing defect on remastered "Blessed Are"Quote
When this remastered disk came out, I was excited because "Warm and Tender Love" was on the second disk. Went to Tower and bought the CD; when I got home, the set contained two disks, both DISK #1. So, I took it back to Tower and exchanged it for a new copy. I opened it before I bought it, and the new copy also contained two disks, again both DISK #1. Last week I ordered a copy from Amazon.com and I received it on Friday. The set had two disks alright, but this time they were both DISK #2. After calling Amazon and finding out how to return the disks, I called Vanguard Records and reported the manufacturing defect. Vanguard Records is going to send me the COMPLETE RECORDING. If you have encountered copies of this album with the same problem, contact Vanguard Records in Santa Monica, CA. The album deserves 5 stars for content. The music is beautiful and Joan, as always, is exquisite. February 6, 2006

Some of us old foggies couldn't get enough of Joan Baez during her most productive years. Many of us have multiple LPs of Joan's extensive library of folk music. From the guitar chords of the opening of Blessed Are . . . through the final song on the extra CD - Warm and Tender Love - - - this music and performance not only are beautiful, they bring back fond memories of the meaningful 1960s and 1970s - a period of incredible change for our culture. Joan Baez, through her music and persona, was and is a reminder of all that was good about that time. November 17, 2005
