Change main picture

[edit]

I got to this page via a random click (via the Steve Jobs 'Think Different' page, if you must know). It seems to me that the idea that the most recent picture is the best one to use is a mistake if the person concerned is quite old, and one of the pictures of a younger Joan Baez should be used for the description box instead. --Brian Josephson (talk) 09:22, 17 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that a more recent photo is better for the lead, as is the case with many other bios. I have restored the 2016 photograph that was previously in the article. Although the 1973 photograph is good quality, I think this image is also good quality and should not have been removed, unless anyone disagrees with me about this. —Vigilant Cosmic Penguin (talk | contribs) 03:49, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Baez-Dylan songs

[edit]

A couple important songs were missed in this paragraph. Dylan co-wrote “Oh Sister” with Jacque Levy as a direct answer to “Diamonds and Rust “. He announced that it was for a friend in the audience at the premiere, and Joan was in attendance. She wrote her answer into the song “Oh, Brother!” Both songs should be added to the paragraph after discussion of “Diamonds and Rust”.. 2600:1702:3510:2660:A109:A74C:B8CD:FBEC (talk) 03:24, 15 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
