This is going to date me ... yes, I surely did know the age of the song. Heard her sing it in concert ... many times over the years ... and if she's in the area, still attend her concerts.
The greater impact of pairing "All the Weary Mothers" with Scouts chosen photo is simply art, needing no explanation.
In the beginning, I made an effort to pair her songs with "action" pictures of Joan and how she looked at the time she recorded the song. Haiku47 still may mean what he said, I don`t know. I never try to mislead anyone by a picture. There are a limited amount of "action" pictures taken when she was younger and I usually don`t like a picture to be repetitive. Haiku may still be one of the thousands that still buy tickets to hear her sing today. Take care!
I simply wanted to point out that Ms. Baez's voice has changed tremendously since then. It is now much lower and mellower, but still beautiful and soulful. My point is that I should hope that HaiKu47 understands this, and is not mistaken when he says she is improving by the year after being misled by a recording made in 1972, paired with a photo from May of 2009.

Yeah, so if you "agree entirely" with him, what`s the problem?

I agree entirely with everything you say, I just hope you know this recording is more than 35 years old.

The Lady improves by the year , gaining insight, and has much to say. Her voice is still one that somehow haunts magnificently.
Scout , thank you.
