Ms. Baez's most successful album, artistically and commercially... and she recorded it on her own terms and direction. The material she chose to cover includes songs originally by Jackson Browne, Stevie Wonder, her forever love Bob Dylan and the Allman Brothers. But it was the title track that must have brought her the most satisfaction, as it was self-penned.

In the early 60s Baez represented the popular face of folk music, touring and singing at political events. She championed the work of Bob Dylan, her choice of material gradually moving away from traditional folk towards more politically aware work. Baez recorded for Vanguard for 12 years, from 1960 until 1972. This compilation includes all her hits, both British and American, from that period.

Assembled from Joan's nationwide tour of Autumn 1961 through to the Spring of 1962, Joan Baez in Concert showcased the wide variety of material that Joan featured in her show, ranging from gospel (Gospel Ship), blues (Babe I'm Gonna Leave You), message songs (What have They Done to the Rain) to African traditional (Kumbaya) through to Brazilian love songs (Ate Amanha, which is sung in Portuguese throughout). It was Joan's version of Babe I'm Gonna Leave You that brought the song to Led Zeppelin's attention, although their version would end up entirely different from Joan's!
