From the very beginning of her musical career, Joan Baez has never sought to draw lines between real world, real time events and her own artistic vision.
Her instincts have often been that of a journalist–or an incurable romantic. There are plenty of both to be found on her album of studio recordings, Dark Chords on a Big Guitar.
Always searching, always on the lookout for a good song–or a worthy social movement that would benefit from her support, Joan Baez is one of our greatest treasures.
