Dark Chords on a Big Guitar ReviewI must say that I was extremely sceptical when I heard that Joan Baez was going to release a new album. I knew that she had lost some of her vocal range, and modern productions have a tendency to diminish the impact of records by veteran artists.However, while Baez's voice is not the same as it was in the 60s or 70s, it is much lower, huskier, and ultimately warmer and more accessible than ever before. The production, while definitely modern, fortunately never gets in the way of the material.
The album's strongest suit, however, is the songs themselves. Baez has always had a knack for finding great material from other artists, and all ten songs here are fantastic. She did not include any of her own compositions (she claims to have given up writing songs), but that is hardly missed at all. The writing, despite being the work of many different pens, is uniformly dark and ominous. However, many tracks are simultaneously sultry and exciting, which makes for a fine listen both the first time around and after repeated listenings. There is a folk-rock core to the songs, but over this is an interesting mixture of blues, jazz, and occasionally a fairly hard (for Baez) rock sound. This is one of her best albums, and certainly her most consistent. Not even Diamonds and Rust or Any Day Now had this depth of emotion or unity of texture.
Perhaps the most effective review I can give this album is this: I hope Baez puts out another album like this, and soon. Thanks, Joan!Dark Chords on a Big Guitar Overview
