Product Description This is the first comprehensive documentary to chronicle the private life and public career of Joan Baez presented here as a deluxe edition with the extended 2.5 hour edition DVD and CD soundtrack. How Sweet The Sound features performances, and interviews with David Crosby, Bob Dylan, ex-husband David Harris, the Reverend Jesse Jackson and Roger McGuinn, in addition to revealing historical archival material. Accounts and footage of Baez’ controversial visit to North Vietnam, Martin Luther King Jr. outside a California prison, where he visited Joan to offer his support after she was jailed for staging a protest, Joan at her first Newport Folk Festival in 1959, and Joan as a teenager performing at the historic Club 47, are all woven into the story so viewers can experience scenes from Joan’s life that have never been uncovered. The CD soundtrack includes material spanning Joan’s career, including many never-before-heard performances and studio recordings that span her career. BBC1 will be screening the documentary How Sweet the Sound as part of the Alan Yentob Imagine series. Amazon.co.uk Review The DVD is NTSC Region 0.
