Joan Baez/Switzerland 1989

The Queen of American Folk, Joan Baez, who ranks alongside Bob Dylan, has recorded her live performance at the Montreux Jazz Festival, held annually in Switzerland, in 1989, in a superb stereo soundboard recording. This is a moving stage full of highlights, including Bob Marley’s famous “No Woman No Cry,” Van Morrison’s “Carrickfergus,” Simon & Garfunkel’s “The Boxer,” Judas Priest’s cover of “Diamonds and Rust,” Bob Dylan’s “Blowin’ in the Wind,” and finally The Beatles’ “Let It Be” featuring James Taylor and Peabo Bryson. You can enjoy Joan Baez’s precious live performance at the jazz festival, with her crystal clear voice that has not changed at all since the ’60s. 01. Warriors Of The Sun (J.Baez) 02.
