  • Description

    Bowery Songs, the newest album from Joan Baez and her first live album in ten years, is a soaring chronicle of her current performances. From Joan's opening acapella benediction, "Finlandia," to her prophetic and telling versions of Bob Dylan's "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue" and Steve Earle's "Jerusalem" that close the album, there can be no mistaking the medium and the message she sought to capture.

    Bowery Songs reminds us that at crucial moments during her long and storied career - which is to say, at crucial moments in America's history over the past four decades and then some - Joan has recorded and released live performance albums that have served as critical barometers of our times.
    Joan Baez is touring large venues in the UK in March to promote the album.
