Joan Baez's Diamonds and Rust in the Bullring
Recorded live in Bilao, Spain Bullring (1988) (gee... I love live performance more and more)
1. Diamonds & Rust
2. Ain't Gonna Let Nobody Turn Me Around
3. No Woman, No Cry
4. Famous Blue Raincoat
5. Swing Low Sweet Chariot
6. Let It Be
7. El Preso Numero Nueve
8. Llego Con Tres Heridas
9. Txoria Txori
10. Ellas Danzan Solas
11. Gracias A La Vida
12. No Nos Moveran


#1 is about her relationship with Bob Dylan
#11 is about a sweet little bird whose owner likes it so much that he cuts its wings in order to keep it aroun. and then realizes, of course, that is it not the same bird anymore.
I like all of them, though I know no spanish (for #7-12, except #11 in Basque)
The cover drawing is by Baez herself.
