Better than I remember! February 11, 2010
Eagles Journey (Hagerstown, MD)
I always loved Joan Baez as I young person! She was one of my heroes in the folk era. I saw this piece on PBS a little while ago, and I was so moved that I had to have it for myself. Such courage and beauty in this artist and activist and also in those she built the movement with! I am grateful for them and all we owe to them!

Experience the magic of Baez - both the music and the woman January 31, 2010
Paddington Bear (Australia)
A brilliant look back on Baez' life, music and activist past and present. Beautifully presented, combining footage from the times with comments from Joan today. Wow! She's still such an impressive woman in every way. It chronicles not just her music but also her part in the civil rights movement, her continuing involvement in social justice issues (including dangerous visits to both Hanoi and Sarajevo). But there's also fun and warmth; her humanity shines through - no perfect saint! A great DVD for Baez fans but also maybe to give to the younger generation who may not know the history or the songs. My daughter - 26 - loved it. I have now given it to 4 people who have all loved it!!
Joan Baez: A Legend in Her Own Time December 15, 2009

This is a complete and clear presentation of the life and many accomplishments of a legend in the history of the world and in music. It depicts the many accomplishments and illustrates why she is a living legend. There are clips of her that even she did not know existed. They show her in her very early years through her current concert tour. I would recommend this program for people who share a generation with her. I would further recommend the program to teach the younger generation how a person can live the same life that they propose. It shows why Joan is referred to as a legend.
If there were more stars, it should be rated with a lot more.
inspiration for younger folk singers December 14, 2009

This film is brilliant! I hope it inspires a new generation of protest folk singers/activists. We need to learn the lessons of the 60's generation. Activism isnt sitting behind a keyboard. They had some successes ie laws against racism etc which have been limited but better than nothing! At the same time, the 60's generation didnt go far enough. They needed to be better organised.Nowadays it may be a bit harder with big brother watching, but with a little imagination you can get around that. Today we need to reclaim democracy so that it is really by, for and of, the people, and not the multi-national corporations. Come on you young folk singers lets get it rolling!

Brings back memories to a '60's activist. Too bad so many got discouraged or weren't inspired.
