About this album
Joan Baez is a striking debut that introduced one of the central voices of the American folk revival. Released in 1960, the album pairs her pure soprano with traditional material and standards such as Silver Dagger, House Of The Rising Sun and Mary Hamilton, making old songs feel immediate and urgent. Its unadorned acoustic approach, centred on voice and guitar, helped establish the intimate, politically alert style that would shape folk music in the years that followed. Widely regarded as a landmark first statement, it announced Baez as both an interpreter of tradition and a major new artist.
