 Star of the Sea January 4, 2009
Richard L. Clark (San Francisco)
When I first heard "The Day After Tomorrow", I have to admit that I was disappointed with the loss of range and power in Ms Baez' voice. After a few listens,however, I warmed to her warm tones and stripped-down intimacy. At 67 years, the 60s Madonna evokes the Catholic Madonna and one longs to be wrapped in the arms of her wisdom and life-experience. It could be the spirit of Mary or it could be the spirit of Isis; whatever it is, in this CD, Baez welcomes the loving return of a lost generation, staggered by 2 disastrous wars and political agony. The maternal spirituality is strongest in "God is God", "Mary", "The Lower Road" and "Scarlet Tide." This is Baez' best effort since "Gone from Danger". She lets us see her in her deep strength and her diamond-edged fragility.

I am a long time fan of Joan Baez. I have followed her music since her first album when I was in college. Sadly, this is the worst cd that I think I have ever listened to and I'm very sad that it is her's. The song selection is dreary and boring and the voice not quite as good as her last album. A little too much religion for my personal taste. But the reviews on this cd when it came out were excellent and so I bought one for myself and sent another one to a friend for Christmas. I feel like calling him and apolgizing for the horrible cd.
STILL THE BEST December 21, 2008

After 50 years, she still speaks to me. Just a fabulous album. The Day After Tomorrow is going to be worn out if that's possible. I love the entire album, but agree I wish it were longer!

I'd rate it zero stars if I could December 15, 2008

Pretty much a waste of time, talent, and my money. What a mismatch of Baez and Earle. This cd is without any redeeming features whatsover....Too many songs with same or near same tempo....lack of any real melody.
I heard Joan in Philadelphia, and she sounded great! This thing sounds as though it was recorded in somebody's bathroom. Baez just sounds tired on most of the songs. She deserves better material and better recording quality.
I'll continue to enjoy Joan Baez in her live concerts, but she seems to be snake bitten these days with her recordings.
Too biblical December 8, 2008

Is she going through a born-again-Christian phase? This is not what I expected from Joan and is heavy on religiosity. I'm disappointed and won't buy another of her CDs again.
