"Blessed Are" was the second Joan Baez album I ever bought - I was probably 17 or 18 at the time. I recently replaced it on CD... and yes, several of the songs on it were her compositions. Also a few by Mickey Newbury and some others. Unfortunately the album notes on CDs are written in really teeny print, and my arms aren't long enough any more to read them very well!;o)

I believe that all the songs on "Gulf Winds" were written by Joan. That is one of my favorite albums of hers.
