Joan Baez in Concert - History

History

It was Baez's version of "Babe, I'm Gonna Leave You", more commonly associated with Led Zeppelin, that brought the song to Jimmy Page and Robert Plant's attention. Malvina Reynolds' "What Have They Done to the Rain" (about nuclear fallout) was the first "topical" song Baez ever recorded. "Até Amanhã" is a Brazilian love song and is sung entirely in Portuguese.

The Vanguard reissue contains three previously unreleased tracks, "Streets of Laredo", "My Good Old Man" and "My Lord What A Morning."
