03 Sep 16 - 10:32 PM (#3808272) Subject: Joan Baez Portrait(label) recordings CD From: Thomas Stern FYI - BGO in the UK has released a 2 CD set (priced as 1 CD) containing 3 albums issued on the PORTRAIT label (EPIC/CBS/SONY). The albums included are: BLOWIN' AWAY LP 1977 Sailing (G. Sutherland) Many A Mile To Freedom (A. Capaldi, S. Winwood) Miracles (J. Baez) Yellow Coat (S. Goodman) Time Rag (J. Baez) A Heartfelt Line Or Two (J. Baez) I'm Blowin' Away (E. Kaz) Luba The Baroness (J. Baez) The Altar Boy And The Thief (J. Baez) Cry Me A River (A. Hamilton) HONEST LULLABY LP 1979 Let Your Love Flow (L. E. Williams) No Woman, No Cry (V. Ford) Light A Light (J. Ian) The Song At The End Of The Movie (P. Pettis) Before The Deluge (J. Browne) Honst Lullaby (J. Baez) Michael (J. Baez) For Sasha (J. Baez) For All We Know (S. M. Lewis, J. F. Coots) Free At Last (J. Baez, G. H. Jackson) EUROPEAN TOUR LP 1980 (UK Version) The Boxer (P. Simon) Don't Cry For Me Argentina (T. Rice, A. L. Webber) Gracias A La Vida (V. Parra) The Rose (A. McBroom) Donna Donna (A. Zeitlin, S. Secunda) Diamonds & Rust (J. Baez) Jari Yahamouda (A. Hamza) Cambodia (J. Baez) Soyuz Druzyei (B. Okudzava) Here's To You (J. Baez, E. Morricone) Blowin' In The Wind (B. Dylan) The thick booklet contains notes,texts, credits, drawings from the original issues, PLUS an essay on Baez's career and recordings by John O'Regan, and a list of website resources. My only complaint: BGO missed the opportunity to provide collectors with a comprehensive collection of Baez's issued CBS recordings. The EUROPEAN TOUR album provided here is the version issued on LP in the UK. There were 4 countries which issued selections from that tour, UK, SPAIN, GERMANY, FRANCE. Each album contained a core selection of songs, plus songs unique to each country's release. The FULL selection of 19 songs, rather than just the 11 tracks on the UK album SHOULD have been made available to fans and collectors of Joan Baez recordings. The Boxer (P. Simon Don't Cry For Me Argentina (T. Rice, A. L. Webber) Gracias A La Vida (V. Parra) The Rose (A. McBroom) Donna Donna (A. Zeitlin, S. Secunda) For Sasha (J. Baez) Maria Dolores (F. Garcia, J. No Nos Moveran (raditional) Diamonds & Rust (J. Baez) Jari Yahamouda (A. Hamza) Rossinyol (raditional) Cambodia (J. Baez) Soyuz Druzyei (B. Okudzava) Plaisir D'Amour (M. il Tedesco) Pauvre Ruteboeuf (Ferre, Ruteboeuf) Le Deserteur (B. Vian) Kinder (Sind So Kleine Hande) (B. Wegner) Here's To You (J. Baez, E. Morricone) Blowin' In The Wind (B. Dylan) In addition, there were a two tracks issued by COLUMBIA in an Earl Scruggs album. My Home's Across The Blue Ridge Mountains Love is just a four letter word Anyone know of additional material issued on the COLUMBIA family of labels by Joan Baez ???? The CDs as issued by BGO are a welcome addition to the Baez CD discography, at a bargain price, with excellent annotations. BGO missed the opportunity ot provide the complete recordings of this period in Ms. Baez's career. Perhaps they can issue a supplemental disc containing those rarities. Best wishes, Thomas. |
