Mr. Hooves and I just got the streaming Netflix and this was something of interest to both of us. So, we watched it. We have seen her in person at Wolf Trap in Virginia a couple of times and always enjoyed her.

anyone interested in the 1960's and folk music.

learning more about her and Bob Dylan. One of her best songs was written about him. I did not know that.

a little sad listening to The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down and Diamonds and rust. I learned how close a friend she was with Martin Luther King, Jr. I had no idea about that relationship.

I think you learn about the 1960's and it is a time of great anxiety and change. I enjoyed listening to her music again, especially my favorite, which is "Diamonds and Rust."

I didn't realize she went to North Vietnam a la Jane Fonda. They didn't really make it clear if she did this before or after Fonda. That sort of turned me off a bit, but she believed what she believed at the time, I guess.
