A direct descendant of founders Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger, Joan Baez will forever remain the queen of sixties protest folk, an icon, even. Against the backdrop of the civil rights struggle and the Vietnam War, this daughter of a Mexican father and a Scottish mother gradually moved away from the artistic preoccupations of her ex, Bob Dylan, to throw herself into the struggle, joining the ranks of organisations like Amnesty International. But all her political commitments would never strip the poetry from her music. And even when she does revisit her teachers (Dylan, Guthrie, Donovan), the otherworldly beauty of her voice intoxicates the listener. Later, as she changed with the times, Joan Baez would sometimes drop her pure folk sound to beef up her instrumentation... Human rights, LGBT causes, the fight against the death penalty and the fight for the environment were all causes which she tenaciously carried throughout the four magnificent albums which are collected here: Folk Singers ‘Round Harvard Square (1959) with Bill Wood and Ted Alevizos, Joan Baez (1960), Joan Baez Vol. 2 (1961) and the live recording, Joan Baez in Concert (1962). This striking snapshot of an era resonates today with the same intensity. © Marc Zisman/Qobuz
