The Best of Joan C. Baez only contains recordings from the 70s, and this for the A & M period of Mrs. Baez. Their biggest hits such as The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, Diamonds & Rust, Gracias A La Vida or Imagine. All titles that until now sings in her concerts Joan. This Best Of collection also some musical gems from the spring as Baez Sweeter For Me or Prison Trilogy can be heard. All in all a recommendable collection for beginners. A somewhat more extensive Best Of collection offers "Rare, Live & Classic" which covers Joans career from 1959 to 1989. And who would like to discover the rock Baez: Play Me Backwards (Virgin 1992), Gone From Danger (Capitol 1997), Dark Chords On A Big Guitar (Koch / BMG 2003).
