| This live album, recorded at a 1995 performance at New York's legendary Bottom Line, finds folk godmother Joan Baez moving through some of the highlights from across her long career, but it's much more than just a retrospective. Baez was among Bob Dylan's first interpreters in the early '60s, and she never stopped seeking out great material. So in addition to returning to the likes of Leonard Cohen's "Suzanne" and the Band's "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down," Baez brings her distinctive touch to more contemporary fare, such as the Indigo Girls' "Welcome Me" and Dar Williams' "You're Aging Well." Not only that, she brings Williams, the Indigo Girls, and others onstage to chime in with her, effectively completing the conceptual circle. | |
