A very satisfying weekend featuring daughters and friends with a Joan Baez concert thrown in for good measure. It occurred to me as I sat listening to Ms. Baez that the best way for me to think of what she does is as being an authentically engaged person with a great voice and great taste in material. Her voice remains lovely-- she has lost some upper range, but this is compensated by a depth and warmth that makes her singing less show-offy.
Oh, and "Diamonds and Rust" is as mean a kiss-off song as anybody ever wrote.
