Our Take

JOAN BAEZ takes us to church with her latest release, "Baptism". Or should I say, she baptizes us in a river of pure folk goodness. The folk queen herself delivers a collection of songs that will have you praising the heavens and tapping your feet in joy. From the moment you press play, you are transported to a world where acoustic guitars reign supreme and lyrics speak to the soul.

Baez's angelic voice soars over the gentle strumming of the guitar, creating a sense of peace and serenity that is hard to find in today's chaotic world. Each track on "Baptism" is a testament to Baez's incredible talent and unwavering dedication to her craft.

Highlights include the hauntingly beautiful "Amsterdam" and the uplifting "I'm With You". But really, every song on this album is a gem in its own right. From start to finish, "Baptism" is a divine experience that will leave you feeling cleansed and rejuvenated.

So if you're in need of a spiritual awakening or just some damn good music, do yourself a favor and pick up a copy of "Baptism" by JOAN BAEZ. You won't regret it. In fact, you may find yourself listening to it on repeat, singing along at the top of your lungs. Praise be to JOAN BAEZ for blessing us with this masterpiece.
