   I love Joan Baez. Thank you for sharing this.

   Thanks — I’m continuing to enjoy your selections. I’ve heard the song a number of times but never thought about it much, and would have assumed that it was an Appalachian folk song, but I see that it is an old English ballad. Cool.

   Let’s remember Joan Baez as she recovers from falling out of her tree house. http://www.mercurynews.com/san-mateo-county/ci_16654409?nclick_check=1

   I also recommend her version of “Cantique de Noel” (perhaps my favorite of this song–makes it more like a folk hymn again) and also “The Carol of the Birds.”
