JOAN BAEZ - 80th BIRTHDAY!

 JOAN BAEZ

80th Birthday


My favourite perhaps of all her songs though I bought her single 'There But For Fortune' (by Phil Ochs) There but for Fortune / Plaisir d'Amour 1965 as a mere schoolboy (12 - I've said I was a precocious little sod?), this beautiful song of lost love is about her love affair with Bob and hence one of her heartfelt best. . . . . . . . . it haunts me still

Happy Birthday Joanie!
