Odetta - I Know Where I'm Going (Scottish folk song)
Blues/folk singer Odetta sings the Scottish folk song, "I Know Where I'm Going."
Odetta - Mr. Tambourine Man
Lyrics:
Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
I'm not sleepy and there ain't no place I'm going to
Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
In the jingle-jangle morning I'll come following you
Though I know that evening's empire
Has returned into sand
Vanished from my hand
Left me blindly here to stand
But still not sleeping
My weariness amazes me
I am branded on my feet
I have no one to meet
And the ancient empty street's
Too dead for dreaming
Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
I'm not sleepy and there ain't no place I'm going to
Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
In the jingle-jangle morning I'll come following you
Take me on a trip upon your
Magic swirling ship
My senses have been stripped
My hands can't feel to grip
My toes too numb to step
Wait only for my boot heels to be wandering
I'm ready to go anywhere
I am ready for to fade
Into my own parade
Cast your dancing spell my way
I promise to go under it
Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
I'm not sleepy and there ain't no place I'm going
Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
In the jingle-jangle morning I'll come following you
Though you might hear laughing, spinning, swinging
Madly through the sun
It's not aimed at anyone
It's just escaping on the run
And but for the sky, there are no fences facing
And if you hear vague traces
Of skipping reels of rhyme
To your tambourine in time
I wouldn't pay it any mind
It's just a ragged clown behind
And if to you he looks blind
I wouldn't worry, it's just a shadow that you are seeing that he's chasing
Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
I'm not sleepy and there ain't no place I'm going
Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
In the jingle-jangle morning I'll come following you
Then take me disappearing
Through the smoke rings of my mind
Down the foggy ruins of time
Far past the frozen leaves
The haunted, sheltered trees
Out to the windy beach
Far from the twisted reach of crazy sorrow
Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky
With one hand waving free
Silhouetted by the sea
Circled by the circus sands
Driving memory and fate
Deep beneath the waves
Let me forget about today until tomorrow
Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
I'm not sleepy and there ain't no place I'm going to
Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
In the jingle-jangle morning I'll come following you
Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
I'm not sleepy and there ain't no place I'm going to
Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
In the jingle-jangle morning I'll come following you
Though I know that evening's empire
Has returned into sand
Vanished from my hand

Odetta Holmes - Tomorrow Is A Long Time
From her album "Odetta Sings Dylan". Obviously it was this version that inspired Elvis Presley for his cover.
Odetta - House of the Rising Sun
"If only one could be sure that every 50 years a voice and a soul like Odetta's would come along, the centuries would pass so quickly and painlessly we would hardly recognize time" - Maya Angelou
Odetta - Livin' with the blues
Uploaded on Jan 25, 2010
Odetta is one of the most influential artists of the 20th Century. By combining the power and grace of an opera singer with the earthiness of a blues singer and the conviction of a folk singer, Odetta became a commanding, stirring singer unlike any other.
Odetta released her first album, Odetta Sings Ballads and Blues, in 1956. This is some two years before the beginning of the folk revival with which she is usually associated. The power of her singing seems to connect her to an earlier folk music, more elemental and raw than her late-50s and early-60s peers. Unlike the Highwaymen or other popular interrupters of classic folk songs, Odetta seems closer in both approach and presentation to Leadbelly. Her interest in folk music appeared to be less of a personal "revival" or awakening, than a continuation of a living tradition. She was referred to as the "female Leadbelly."
Bob Dylan was major inspired by Odetta - - in 1956 her album, "ODETTA Sings Ballads & Blues," inspired him to trade in his electric guitar for a Gibson acoustic guitar,and got him into folk .
Livin' With The Blues collects a number of Odetta's blues songs recorded for Vanguard during the 1960s, including several that have been previously unreleased. The majority of the songs feature Odetta singing and playing guitar with bassist Bill Lee holding up the bottom end. The other material includes Odetta singing folk and blues with piano, bass, and drum accompaniment.

In conversation with Dame Janet Baker
Published on Aug 30, 2013
In what was one of the most special hours of my life, I had the great privilege of sitting down with legendary artist, Dame Janet Baker, to discuss her career, her artistic integrity, and her view on the power of music. Celebrating her 80th Birthday, a 20-CD set of her greatest recordings was released, and it seemed a good occasion to look back on her storied, impeccable career. Filmed on site at Wigmore Hall in London.
