  • 20Th Century Masters Press Release
    1 FROM “THE NIGHT THEY DROVE OLD DIXIE DOWN” TO “DIAMONDS & RUST,” NEW COMPILATION COLLECTS THE BEST OF JOAN BAEZ If Bob Dylan is the king of modern folk, then Joan Baez is surely the queen, with her sweeping soprano making her one of the most recognizable voices in music. But for the greatest artists, their songs resonate far beyond the music itself. Of no one is that truer than Baez. Since her first album 40 years ago, she has chronicled and perhaps helped mold the political and social changes that have swept across not only the U.S. but the world. On The Best Of Joan Baez edition of 20th Century Masters/The Millennium Collection (A&M/UMG), released October 19, 1999, 11 of her most popular and significant songs have been digitally remastered using the latest 24-bit/96k technology and brought together on one album. Spanning her A&M career from 1972-1976, The Best Of Joan Baez features the two most cherished songs for Baez fans--a live version of her 1971 #3 hit “The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down” (written by Robbie Robertson and originally recorded by the Band) and her acoustic 1975 Top 40 tribute to Dylan, “Diamonds & Rust.” Also included is her cover of Dylan’s classic “Forever Young” as well as covers of songs by Jackson Browne (“Fountain Of Sorrow”), John Prine (“Hello In There”), Janis Ian (“Jesse”) and her sister Mimi Farina (“In The Quiet Morning,” an homage to Janis Joplin). Another highlight is “Dida,” a breezy acoustic duet with its author, Joni Mitchell.

  • President John F. Kennedy's Visits to Cleveland Depicted by Photograph
    For Immediate Release Contact: Alyssa Purvis November 18, 2013 Communications Assistant O: 216-721-5722 ext. 1407 [email protected] President John F. Kennedy’s Visits to Cleveland Depicted by Photograph Collection in WRHS Research Library Images donated by Ray T. Miller, head of Cuyahoga County Democratic Party for over 20 years, capture multiple Cleveland appearances by JFK in the years preceding his assassination CLEVELAND, OH – The odds of interacting with the President of the United States today are slim. Security is endless, making it difficult to even catch a glimpse of the country’s Commander-In-Chief. Take one look at the images in the Ray T. Miller collection at Western Reserve Historical Society, and it will become obvious that times were much different during a presidential campaign in the late 1950s. The images in the collection document John F. Kennedy’s multiple visits to the Cleveland area during the years preceding and during his presidency. In many of the photos, Mrs. Kennedy is seen accompanying the President as he is surrounded by hundreds of Cleveland residents. Crowds can be seen anxiously awaiting President Kennedy’s arrival at multiple locations across town; the airport, a podium in Public Square, or a steer roast at Euclid Beach Park. The images are available to be viewed by visitors in the Research Library at the WRHS History Center in University Circle. The photos from the Miller Collection prove to be even more interesting to visitors this year, the year marking the 50th anniversary of Kennedy’s assassination. Kennedy campaigned throughout Ohio and while doing so, he congregated with prominent Clevelanders such as Carl B.
