Our Take

JOAN BAEZ is back and she's truly BLESSED us with her latest album, aptly titled "Blessed Are". Known for her angelic voice and powerful folk ballads, Baez doesn't disappoint on this record.

From the opening track, "Blessed Are", Baez's vocals soar to incredible heights, weaving tales of love, loss, and hope. The instrumentation is beautifully crafted, with intricate guitar work and delicate string arrangements that perfectly complement Baez's emotive storytelling.

Standout tracks include "Diamonds and Rust", a hauntingly beautiful ode to past love, and "Gracias a la Vida", a heartfelt tribute to the beauty of life itself. Baez's cover of Bob Dylan's "Forever Young" is also a highlight, showcasing her ability to breathe new life into a classic song.

Despite being in the industry for over five decades, Baez shows no signs of slowing down. Her passion and talent are still as vibrant as ever, making "Blessed Are" a must-listen for both longtime fans and newcomers alike.

Overall, JOAN BAEZ's "Blessed Are" is a truly magical listening experience that will leave you feeling uplifted and inspired. So sit back, relax, and let the queen of folk music serenade you with her angelic melodies. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.
