Our Take

Joan Baez - Three Classic Albums Plus In a world full of auto-tuned pop stars and over-produced ear candy, Joan Baez is a breath of fresh folk air. This collection brings together three of her classic albums, showcasing her haunting vocals and mesmerising storytelling abilities. From the opening track of Baez's self-titled debut album, you are transported back to a time when music was raw and honest. Her rendition of traditional folk songs like "House of the Rising Sun" and "All My Trials" are nothing short of spine-tingling. Moving onto her second album, "Joan Baez, Vol. 2", we see Baez embracing more original material. Tracks like "Blessed Are..." and "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down" show off her songwriting chops and ability to tackle controversial subjects with grace and poise. Rounding off the collection is "Noel", Baez's tribute to some of her favourite Christmas carols. While this may seem like an odd addition to the mix, Baez's ethereal vocals breathe new life into these beloved classics, making them a joy to listen to year-round. Overall, this collection is a must-have for any folk music enthusiast or anyone who appreciates the power of a truly talented vocalist. Joan Baez's timeless classics remind us that sometimes, all you need is a guitar and a voice to make magic happen. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.
