5.0 out of 5 stars A Classic, October 16, 1999
By A Customer
This book is filled with classic folk songs/ballads/hymns/lullabies, etc. that shouldn't be forgotten. They're songs for adults and children alike that have formed the roots of many current songs and stories.

5.0 out of 5 stars Guitar Lessons With Joan, May 25, 2006
This review is from: Joan Baez Song Book (Hardcover)
In 1965 - this book taught me how to play guitar. The songs are shown in their original keys and are not easy for a beginning guitarist. HOWEVER, all songs are transposed and with the use of a CAPO (song book says CAPO at 3rd Fret) you are playing the same chords Joan plays. If your guitar is tuned.. you play right along with her.. sure beats Volga Boatman!

5.0 out of 5 stars I play guitar but....., December 18, 1999
Haunting, beautiful melodies..Timeless tunes the likes of "Jackaroe" & "Fenerio" make this a treasure.. the only thing missing is Joans' perfect voice!
