Diamonds & Rust

Diamonds & Rust (1975) more music like this

by Joan Baez

With the Vietnam War winding down, Joan Baez, who had devoted one side of her last album to her trip to Hanoi, delivered the kind of commercial album A&M Records must have wanted when it signed her three years earlier. But she did it on her own terms, putting together a session band of contemporary jazz veterans like Larry Carlton, Wilton Felder, ...

The First 10 Years

The First 10 Years (1970) more music like this

by Joan Baez

The First 10 Years is an excellent overview of Joan Baez's first decade of recording, balancing her work as an interpreter of both traditional and contemporary folk songs. There may be a few fan favorites missing, but all the essentials are here, making it an excellent introduction for the novice. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide

Greatest Hits [A&M]

Greatest Hits [A&M] (1996) more music like this

by Joan Baez

Greatest Hits is a reasonably comprehensive collection of Joan Baez's best-known songs, concentrating mainly on her crossover hits. Although it misses several fine items, the compilation remains an effective introduction for the curious listener. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide

Woodstock (1970) more music like this

by Various Artists

Officially it was "Music From the Original Soundtrack [of Michael Wadleigh's documentary feature film Woodstock] And More," but the triple-LP (later double-CD) Woodstock was really rock's first "coffee table" album. Bought by millions but not really listened to that often, it's amid a flood of wrong notes and the inherent flaws in recording live ...

Noël [Bonus Tracks] (1966) more music like this

by Joan Baez

When Joan Baez began recording and performing during the late '50s and early '60s, she carved out a niche for herself as a remarkable singer of traditional music. In 1966 she released Noel, an album of seasonal songs notable for its variety and the fact that she sung two selections in German. One would expect to see "O Come, O Come, Emmanuel" and ...

Joan Baez in Concert, Pt. 1 [Bonus Tracks]

Joan Baez in Concert, Pt. 1 [Bonus Tracks] (2002) more music like this

by Joan Baez

Joan Baez in Concert, Pt. 1, Baezs third widely distributed album, marked the apex of her success and influence as a traditional folksinger, her repertoire still almost wholly comprised of traditional folk songs delivered with only her own guitar as accompaniment. Actually recorded at various concerts, the album was phenomenal success, reaching ...

Joan Baez

Joan Baez (1960) more music like this

by Joan Baez

At the time of its release, Joan Baez's debut album was something of a revelation. The folk music revival was beginning to gather steam, stoked on the popular side by artists such as the Kingston Trio and the Easy Riders, as well as up-and-coming ensembles such as the Highwaymen, and on the more intense and serious side by the Weavers. The female ...

The Best of Woodstock

The Best of Woodstock (1995) more music like this

by Various Artists

The Best of Woodstock is far from a thorough overview of the festival -- some of the artists aren't represented by their most enduring material, and, after all, you can't cover three days' worth of music in just one disc. Despite those limitations, the sampler does contain some of the festival's best moments, like Country Joe & the Fish's "I ...

Greatest Folksingers of the '60s

Greatest Folksingers of the '60s (1972) more music like this

by Various Artists

Not only was Maynard Solomon's Vanguard Records one of the major folk labels of the 60s (having the prescience to pick up Joan Baez early on, and then recording the cream of the singer/songwriters thereafter), but it also had the rights to record and release material from the Newport Folk Festival, giving it access to several artists who were not ...

The collection strikes a nice balance between the unusual and familiar, and all of the ...

This four-disc box set was released commemorating the 25th anniversary of the original Woodstock festival that took place in August 1969, and combined both of the Woodstock albums released in 1970 and 1971 with previously unreleased material. It's a well-known part of the festival's history that many of the participants played self-confessed ...

Carry It On (1971) more music like this

by Joan Baez

This soundtrack intersperses acoustic live performances with politically oriented dialog, much of which is spoken by her then-husband, draft resister David Harris. It's certainly one of the most minor entries of her Vanguard catalog. The dialogue is distracting, and the music reasonable but uneven, as Baez offers interpretations of songs by Gram ...

Play Me Backwards (1992) more music like this

by Joan Baez

Proving that Joan Baez never really goes away, Play Me Backwards is a fine 1992 release from the legendary singer/songwriter. The smooth production of Wally Wilson and Kenny Greenberg frames her voice beautifully, with a contemporary, yet undated sound. And, with songs courtesy of Mary-Chapin Carpenter, John Hiatt, and Janis Ian, how can you go ...

Any Day Now [Bonus Tracks] (2005) more music like this

by Joan Baez

Recorded in October of 1968, Any Day Now marks Joan Baez's first foray into the recording studios of Nashville, armed with an entire program of Bob Dylan's material and backed by a stellar cast of Music City's finest session players. Dylan himself, coming out of an imposed exile after a motorcycle crash, had issued only one recording since 1966's ...

The Best of Joan C. Baez [A&M] (1977) more music like this

by Joan Baez

A&M's 1977 collection The Best of Joan Baez doesn't chronicle her most influential work, but that doesn't mean it's not without merit. Far from it, actually. This is a concise recapping of her poppier recordings for A&M, which include such classic Baez moments as her original "Diamonds and Rust" and a definitive reading of Robbie Robertson's "The ...

Gone from Danger (1997) more music like this

Although it doesn't have the unified sense of purpose of Play Me Backwards, Gone from Danger is an appealing latter-day effort from Joan Baez that proves she has lost none of her talent for creating warm, graceful, welcoming folk. Thom Owens, All Music Guide

Baptism (1968) more music like this

by Joan Baez

Joan Baez's most unusual album, Baptism is of a piece with the "concept" albums of the late '60s, but more ambitious than most and different from all of them. Baez by this time was immersed in various causes, concerning the Vietnam War, the human condition, and the general state of the world, and it seemed as though every note of music that she ...

Diamonds (1996) more music like this

The same year that A&M U.S. released the single-disc, 20-track Greatest Hits, A&M U.K. released this double-disc, 33-track compilation from the same period of Joan Baez's career, i.e., her five-year, five-album sojourn at the label from 1972 to 1976. You'd figure that this one would get the nod over the shorter American disc, right? Wrong. ...

Very Early Joan (1983) more music like this

by Joan Baez

This Vanguard release is a heartwarmingly intimate look at Joan Baez during her most influential period (1960-1963). The album's 22 tracks are all live, performed before audiences held in silent and rapt attention in packed concert halls. The singer's trademark politically tinged folk songs are charmingly blended with a few pop interpretations ...
