    Day After Tomorrow finds her in fine form, the famous falsetto is an octave or two down but the conviction that she brings to the songs is as strong as ever. [Oct 2008, p.106]

    At 67, Baez betrays some vocal aging, but she uses it wisely to impart extra feeling into what is often a downbeat collection of quality songs, and Earle has succeeded in his attempt not to reinvent her, but to re-create her sound and message in contemporary terms.
  3. Uncut

    Baez's worn voice retains its majesty, and also the sanctimony that has set so many teeth on edge over the years. [Oct 2008, p.81]

    As Joan ages, so does her wisdom as does her devotion solidify. This is a beautiful album, filled with images and themes that has long been the foundation of her life, vaues and ideals. Excellent job, Joan, once again, you have been a beacon,a guiding light in the storm and fog.… Expand

    Badly produced and amateurish recording especially the first three cuts where the out of tune guitar overwhelms her voice. Low production values spoil some interesting songs. One hopes her current tour does not feature too many efforts like this.… Expand
