Was Joan Baez replaced?
Joan Baez in 1965:
1966:
Foan Faez in 1968:
Foan Faez 1969:
More Foan Faez 1969:
Al Capp called her "Joanie Phoney." He also angrily confronted Charlie Brill on film in the Fohn-Yoko Ono Montreal, Canada "Bed-In for Peace," stopping just short of calling Fohn an imposter but strongly implying it (for those able to pick up on it). As with his "Joanie Phoney" cartoons, people just took it as part of Capp's newly right wing political bent, but in retrospect it's obvious he was trying to lay out public clues to the CIAlebrity impostering which horrified him.

Joan Baez in 1965:
1966: Is this the same woman as in the above video? Hmmm....
An early Foan in above video (filmed in Sweden)? Or maybe the same, real Joan with makeup?

Mid-1960s Fob Fylan song about Joan Baez:
Lyrics Artists: b Bob Dylan Lyrics Visions Of Johanna Lyrics Artist: Bob Dylan
Song: Visions Of Johanna
Album: No Direction Home The Soundtrack The Bootleg Series Vol 7 2005
Translate: German | French | Spanish | Italian | Russian | Portuguese
Send "Visions Of Johanna" Ringtone to your Cell
Ain't it just like the night to play tricks when you're tryin' to be so quiet ?
We sit here stranded, though we're all doin our best to deny it
And Louise holds a handful of rain, tempting you to defy it
Lights flicker from the opposite loft
In this room the heat pipes just cough
The country music station plays soft
But there's nothing really nothing to turn of
Just Louise and her lover so entwined
And these visions of Johanna that conquer my mind.
In the empty lot where the ladies play blindman's bluff with the key chain
And the all-night girls they whisper of escapades out on
the D-train
We can hear the night watcman click his flashlight
Ask himself if it's him or them that's really insane
Louise she's all right she's just near
She's delicate and seems like the mirror
But she just makes it all too concise and too clear
That Johanna's not here
The ghost of electricity howls in the bones of her face
Where these visions of Johanna have now taken my place.
Now, little boy lost, he takes himself so seriously
He brags of his misery, he likes to live dangerously
And when bringing her name up
He speaks of a farewell kiss to me
He's sure got a lotta gall to be so useless and all
Muttering small talk at the wall while I'm in the hall
Oh, how can I explain ?
It's so hard to get on
And these visions of Johanna they kept me up past the dawn.
Inside the museums, Infinity goes up on trial
Voices echo this is what salvation must be like after a while
But Mona Lisa musta had the highway blues
You can tell by the way she smiles
See the primitive wallflower freeze
When the jelly-faced women all sneeze
Hear the one with the mustache say, "Jeeze
I can't find my knees"
Oh, jewels and binoculars hang from the head of the mule
But these visions of Johanna, they make it all seem so cruel.
The peddler now speaks to the countess who's pretending to care for him
Saying, "Name me someone that's not a parasite and I'll go out and say a prayer for him"
But like Louise always says
"Ya can't look at much, can ya man "
As she, herself prepares for him
And Madonna, she still has not showed
We see this empty cage now corrode
Where her cape of the stage once had flowed
The fiddler, he now steps to the road
He writes ev'rything's been returned which was owed
On the back of the fish truck that loads
While my conscience explodes
The harmonicas play the skeleton keys and the rain
And these visions of Johanna are now all that remain.

Always thought that "falling in love" song was a little TOO GOOD to have beenwritten by 1950s Elvis Presley tin pan alley-type songwriters, well like much of theirproduct, it reaaly WASN'T it was ripped off wholesale from this little-known old French song, This song, performed here by the REAL JOAN BAEZ, not her CIA imposter Foan who replaced Joan several years after this recording: www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZoGGQbkWLo&feature=related The Elvis/Felvis steal-song "Falling In Love" secret plagiarism of "Plaisir D'Amour": www.youtube.com/watch?v=NIfPRfALgvA"Plaisir d'amour" is a classical French love song written in 1780 by Jean Paul Égide Martini (1741-1816). It was arranged for orchestra by Hector Berlioz. Although it has been adapted as a piece of pop music, it was written in a classical style during the classical period. The song, originally composed in 1780, took its libretto from a poem by Jean de Florian (1755-1794), which is in his romance, Célestine. The classical French composer Hector Berlioz (1803-1869) arranged the piece for orchestra. Notable interpretations of the song include those of Joan Baez, Brigitte Bardot, Karen Allyson, and Charlotte Church. It was performed by Irene Dunne in Love Affair (1939 film); Maria Ouspenskaya accompanies on the piano. "Plaisir d'amour" is also sung by a children's choir in "The Breaking Point," an episode of HBO's 2001 World War II television miniseries Band of Brothers. The melody was reused for both the song "My Love Loves Me," performed by Anita Carter, and the popular song "Can't Help Falling in Love," performed by Elvis Presley, although neither uses its lyrics or a translation thereof.Lyrics: Plaisir d'amour ne dure qu'un moment. chagrin d'amour dure toute la vie. J'ai tout quitté pour l'ingrate Sylvie.Elle me quitte et prend un autre aimant. Plaisir d'amour ne dure qu'un moment. chagrin d'amour dure toute la vie. Tant que cette eau coulera doucement vers ce ruisseau qui borde la prairie, Je t'aimerai me répétait Sylvie.[Vartan?!] L'eau coule encore. Elle a changé pourtant. Plaisir d'amour ne dure qu'un moment. chagrin d'amour dure toute la vie. Cover versions: * Yvonne Printemps in 1931 * Tino Rossi in 1955 * Joan Baez in 1961 * Marianne Faithfull in 1965 * Nana Mouskouri in 1997 * Karrin Allyson in 1999 * Marie Denise Pelletier in 2000 * Emmylou Harris in 2003 on Stumble into Grace (Nonesuch Records) * Brigitte Bardot * Barbara Hendricks * Andrea Bocelli * Mireille Mathieu * Ivan Rebroff * Eddy Mitchell * Nick Drake played it for 46 seconds after finishing his album Pink Moon, not released until October 26, 2004 on A Treasury * Franco Battiato in 1991 on Come un cammello in una grondaia (EMI Records) Category: Music Tags: Joan Baez French cover Arab AWOL Baghdad Beatles beautiful Billy Brooks Brothers Buddha burgundy Carmel Valley Child of Darkness Civil Disobedience Dick Fort Ord Gandhi Georgia Grenada Iraq Jesus Lao-tse Lebanon Lieutenant Lisa Mexican Mimi Ming Miss Mississippi Paris Pauline Phoebe Popsy Quaker Red Rover Sam Mercer Santa Rita stewardess Sunshine Tarzan UNESCO Vespa Vietnam Vivaldi Wanna come watched Yeah Zeppo |

Interesting question of what happened to Mimi Baez Farina during and after 1966. Is this a Fimi Faez Fauxrina singing and in the picture below? It looks like Foan with her in any case: www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYRcCa-ddOo |

Well, it definitely looks like Joan was modified between 1965 and 1968. In 1965, she looks like a true blue Mexican. In 1968, all the quirkiness in her face has been smoothed out. I have a more recent pic of her and the bone structure of her face is even more square than in 1968. What if she wasn't replaced but just genetically modified?

^ I think that period coincides with the Joan/Bob breakup, no?
I saw Joan at the Big Sure folk festival around 1965. God, that woman
could sing! She did an a capella number singing against the cliffs behind
the audience, playing with the echos of her own voice against the cliffs.
It blew us all away. Unforgettable.

There's talk in the comments here of CIA-Foan Faez speaking german without an accent. I was wondering if we have any native german speakers here to confirm this ---is Foan really german/Swiss/austrian-born? www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ZVjkIXV6_A&feature=related |

A confederate-"Joan Baez" doing a pro-confederacy song by "The Band," previously with Fob Fylan. The Foan Faez here looks very un-Joan like, hardly even close. A really sloppy imposter both visually and vocally, but especially the visual: www.youtube.com/watch?v=nnS9M03F-fA&feature=related |

Top video, the 1965 one of the real Joan Baez singing "It Ain't Me Babe," has been deleted on youtube! We can no longer watch/hear it to compare Joan vs. Foan. |

Rubbish! Total match. Voice, face, facial expressions. Everything matches perfectly.
What's the point in posting totally speculative posts?
Just like using photographs as evidence. Photoshopping was possible with 60s technology, the photograph evidence doesn't count for anything. Never has.
