  • Me thinks this was lifted from my old YouTube Channel. It's a nice video.

  • What you tell isn't right. I became this Video on a CD of a good friend, not from your channel.

  • Nice version but as a matter of taste I still prefer the Axton Rhonstadt one also.

  • Joan Does a pretty good rendition of this song with Hoyt, but Linda Ronstadt's version is exponentially better.

  • I admit to a prejudice in listening to this, because I have heard the version by Hoyt Axton and Linda Ronstadt from vinyl many times. As has been pointed out, the mix is bad and they are not in a studio. But I also agree that their voices and styles fit poorly in this performance. Both have sung many beautiful duets with others, but not here.

  • Baez does better when doped up. 

  • I just rediscovered this song a couple of days ago when I heard a version of it on a local folk music show. Does anyone know if Ms. Baez ever did a sols version of this song?

  • linda ronstadt's version is better by a country mile...........

  • Joan baez's voice is not suited for this song to begin with and she completely drowned out Hoyt Axton's voice.

  • Having listened to them again, I agree with you guys. Linda Rondstadt does blend better with Hoyt.

  • Cool thing about Youtube is you can compare diffrent versions of the same song. I think this one is just as good as the Rondstadt duet. Sje and Joan both have great voices.

  • une fois de plus Joan Baez chante comme une chèvre, ses vocalises ridicules dénaturent cette excellente chanson, pauvre Hoyt Axton, le diva a encore sévi, pareille mésaventure ne lui arrivera pas avec Linda Ronstadt.

  • Not only does Baez not blend well with Axton, but that danged harmonica drowns out both singers to the point that it's hard to tell what exactly the problem is.

    I think that Baez is under rehearsed in this performance, as she seems ill at ease.
