Sad it's about war, but she has an amazing voice and a talented guitar player too!

I was a Marine stationed on Okinawa in 1967, and I was to muster out of the service shortly after I returned to the States. Once I became a civilian again I had become such a fan of Joan that I was determined to travel to see one of her concerts. But, I met the girl who is now my wife of 49 years and suddenly Joan Baez moved down the list of my priorities. Now folk, that's what love can do to a man. ❤

I love this song!

One of my all time favourite songs

Classic!

The most Beautiful Lady and voice on EARTH.🎉🥳

She and Joanie Mitchell should sing together one day at Alabama Dixie Bar.

From 1971 to 1978 .. in just 7 years, we found ourselves in a new music era.

How do you figure? 🥴 If you talking about materialism creeping in, that would be in the '80s. There was still hippie vibes in the late '70s.

One of the most beautiful songs of all times.

I remember listening to this when I was a kid .from London England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧

A beautiful voice enough said we grew up with the song old school

The most unforgetful Rebel song of all time has been sung by many voices but never like Joan Baez.

this kind of music is not written today

It is and released by small labels or the artist themselves. It's just not aired on main stream radio but the march of time the generations change and their ears don't want to hear this in large doses.

This is a very great song. You can feel it move right to your heart❤😂❤😂❤

Brilliant performance, showing Joan's relaxed, sassy, but fun attitude with the crowd. Shame they didn't join in with the chorus.

Yup , this is the real deal . No electronic studio enhancement, no auto tune, smoke, dancers, and other BS. Just one acoustic guitar and not even a drum player.

I'm in love❤❤❤❤ one of the best female rockers of all time and one of my best favorites

True talent.

What a great voice she has.

One of the great talents of my generation.

Levon Helm of THE BAND wrote this great song which Joan Baez made a tremendous hit. One doesn't have to be Southern to appreciate the sentiment.

wow

The time will come and old Dixie will rise again!

Robbie Robertson from The Band wrote this song.

She is so outstanding in skill and style constrasting completely the audience.

William Tecumseh Sherman had it right. “War is hell”. Understood that the most economical and fairest war is total war.

👍👏

Looks like everybody there is as high as a kite...

Beautiful performance, though she misses the lyrics again. She used to sing, "'til so much calvary came". This time, "Stonewall's Calvary came". Stonewall Jackson was a Confederate General who died much earlier. The song was about the fall of Richmond and Gen Lee's surrender to end the war. Should be "Stoneman's Calvary came", the last raid by Union calvary, which was very effective by cutting the rail line and blocking Lee's only possible retreat.

It makes me think she really didn't know the history relative to the song.

I always wonder who sang this song. Heard the song a few times growing up but never heard of her.

Nice find…where’s it from?

Levon never played it again after Joan turned it into a pop song.

After the end of the civil war i

“With my wife in Tennessee. And one day she said to me…’Virgil, quick come-see’….Baez’s fouled your lyrics. See?”

Too bad she got the lyrics wrong. It’s “Stoneman’s cavalry”

Yeah. Pretty crazy to be a civil rights activist, or to be in favor of nonviolent protest, or in favor of equal rights for women. Really radical. 😂
