Thread Name: Joan Baez not a fraud exactly
Subject: RE: Joan Baez not a fraud exactly
and if you want to hear what Joan sounds like without the vibratto, just listen to her sister, Mimi Farina.

Joan's voice was a great naturally happening one---.

Also, it's dumb and quite irritating to see folks listening to an old tape and striving mightily to inflict their mod value judgments on the participants. Things were simply seen differently then. Joe Heaney was a treasure chest of things that fit another era's truths. It was a different paradigm(spelling). Anyone who heard him and learned from his massive oral memmory was a lucky person.
