Our Take

Joan Baez burst onto the folk music scene like a breath of fresh air with her debut album, now reissued with a whopping 10 bonus tracks. This record is a time capsule of the 1960s, capturing the essence of a young woman with a voice that could melt even the coldest of hearts - seriously, I've seen polar bears shed a tear listening to this.

From her haunting rendition of "Silver Dagger" to the contemplative "Don't Weep After Me," Baez showcases her vocal prowess and emotional depth with every track. Her purity and vulnerability shine through, making you feel like you're sitting in on a private performance in Greenwich Village.

But it's not all just folksy ballads and heart-wrenching melodies. With bonus tracks like "Wagoner's Lad" and "East Virginia," Baez proves she's not afraid to experiment with different styles and sounds. And let's not forget her iconic version of "House of the Rising Sun" - it's a game-changer.

Overall, Joan Baez's debut album is a classic that has stood the test of time. It's a must-listen for any music lover looking to delve into the roots of folk music. So grab your moccasins, light some incense, and take a trip back to the swinging '60s with this gem of an album. Trust me, you won't regret it.
