5.0 out of 5 stars A good summary of a noteworthy career, November 27, 1999

This is an ideal intro album for those wanting an album that covers the range of Baez's career, but one that also updates the material she had recorded on Vanguard pushing 40 years ago. The duet/coffee house approach with assorted artists works well with the women Baez chose to include on this album; among my favorites are the duets with Tish Hinohosa, the Indigos, and Dar Williams. If you haven't listened to Baez for a number of years, this is the album to reintroduce you to what is still the best voice in the business. The years have been extraordinarily kind to her voice, as evidenced in this album.

4.0 out of 5 stars Aging Well, April 13, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Ring Them Bells (Audio CD)

I love this album. I've always loved Joan Baez, but thought that sometimes her recordings were a little stiff (I didn't want to hear more than a couple of her songs in a row). But this recording is refreshingly ragged and relaxed. When I first heard her sing "Don't think twice" with the Indigo Girls, I felt like the song was new again, as it always should have been. If you love Joan, if you love folk music, I highly recommend this cd.

I have followed her throughout her career, and there are many Joan Baez songs I 'like'. This was the first CD by Ms. Baez I purchased, though. Ms. Baez' voice has aged very well, at the age she is now she is much more pleasant to listen to.

My very favorite on this CD is the recording of "Don't Think Twice", which she performs with the Indigo Girls, but there is no one who does justice to Dylan music as well as Ms. Baez does. It's become one of my favorite CDs.
