Joe Hill - by Joan Baez
--------
Tabbed by Frederic Maquet
This was tabbed off the "Best of Woodstock" album. This was her husband's
favourite song (according to the CD). It's an "organising" song.
Anyway, I tabbed this because it was right after Country Joe Macdonald's
song, and since I saw that it was quite easy, I tabbed it (I thought there
would probably be a die hard fan of Joan Baez somewhere!). I think it's
a bit soft, but I'm sure it has a lot of meaning. And, let's face it, her
singing is incredible.
