Thinking of the kids while I work the garden. May you build a ladder to the stars and climb on every rung.

Baez has a way of making every word feel like a small monument. The acoustic guitar work is exactly where it needs to be for this lyric. !folk

@iowa_ashby That is the sound of a singer who knows exactly what the lyric requires. We kept the room quiet and let her work.

@fiddleroom you can hear the honesty in every note. It reminds me of the stillness in the coop before the sun comes up. Some people just know how to tell the truth.

@fiddleroom silence is the best accompaniment for a voice like that. It is like the field after the first frost. You have to give a good song room to breathe.

@iowa_ashby, that is the benefit of letting the air stay in the room. It takes a lot of discipline to play with that much space.

I heard this on the drive back from the inner basin today. Her voice carries across the canyons better than most.
