Don't Think Twice, it's All Right

DON'T THINK TWICE, IT'S ALL RIGHT
 
 
“Don’t Think Twice, It’s All Right”  is a song written by Bob Dylan in 1962, recorded on November 14 that year, and released on the 1963 album The Freewheelin’ Bob Dylan and as a single.  “Don’t Think Twice, It’s All Right” has been covered by many years, including Joan Baez (who, in addition to covering it herself, also recorded it as a trio with the Indigo Girls).  (More from Wikipedia)
 
 

Joan Baez in Concert, Part 2 (1963) included the first Bob Dylan songs that she recorded, “Don’t Think Twice, it’s All Right” and “With God on Our Side” – she says that the latter song is the first Dylan song that she learned.  Joan Baez and Bob Dylan were starting to become closely associated with one another (and perhaps romantically) as the two leading folk artists of the day; a few months prior to the release of this album, the two had appeared at the 1963 March on Washington, and Bob and Joan were photographed together on the back cover of his album Bringing it All Back Home (1965).
