Joan Baez & Mary Chapin Carpenter ~ STONES IN THE ROAD ~
"On 1992`s "Play Me Backwards", Joan chose to include Carpenter`s previously unrecorded "Stones In The Road" -- is it possible that Joan`s version was at least partly responsible for the reluctant country star pulling in the reins on her big production style, and getting back to her acoustic folkie roots on her 1992 studio album, coincidentally named after one of its tracks, "Stones In The Road?."
@SLFinSF This was written by Chapin- she only let Joan record this before she herself used it.

Chapin wrote this song. Love Joan Baez but she doesn't have the gift of words that Chapin does.Give her albums a listen. This is biographical.She was 10 when RFK train went by her hometown in 1968. " My father held me on his shoulders....."

I love them both. I have just love one longer than the other. Neither has gotten the credit they deserve.

This song was written by MCC, not Joan Baez. Joan covered it in her album Play Me Backwards before MCC recorded it--but it is still a MCC song

I never knew Joan Baez wrote this -- and now that I do, of course, of course -- it is clear as a bell to me. I love you Joan -- Gail Zermeno (one of my sister's best friends) used to bring your son, Gabriel, to our house in Palo Alto when I was a little girl...
