Joan Baez & Rosanne Cash - "Farewell, Angelina" - A Night To Honor Joan Baez - February 8, 2025 (4K)

Joan Baez and Rosanne Cash play a cover of the Bob Dylan song "Farewell, Angelina" live in concert before a sold-out crowd at The Masonic Auditorium in San Francisco, California on February 8, 2025. The song appeared on Joan Baez's sixth studio album, Farewell, Angelina (1965). Bob Dylan tried recording the song during the Bringing It All Back Home sessions, but it wasn't officially released until 1991 as part of his The Bootleg Series (Rare & Unreleased) album. Joining Baez and Cash onstage were Joe Henry (guitar), David Piltch (bass), Gabe Harris (drums), Greg Leisz (pedal steel guitar), and Jason Crosby (keyboards / fiddle). This was a special one-night benefit concert called Sweet Relief Presents: A Night To Honor Joan Baez.

Confirmed performers include Joan Baez, Emmylou Harris, Hozier, Rosanne Cash, Margo Price, Bonnie Raitt, Tom Morello, Joe Henry, Lucinda Williams, Taj Mahal with surprise guests and additional performers to be announced shortly. Joan Baez has endured as a musical force of nature for over six decades, with an unwavering commitment to social activism and the arts. Her classic early 1960s folk recordings attracted a generation who carried songs like “House Of the Rising Sun” and “Babe, I’m Gonna Leave You” into the rock lexicon. She was inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame in 2017. Though Baez stopped touring in 2019, she has been the subject of the film, I Am The Noise, and has released a book of drawings, Am I Pretty When I Fly?, and a book of poetry, When You See My Mother, Ask Her To Dance. Emmylou Harris shares “So happy to be a part of celebrating my dear friend Joan Baez!" Aric Steinberg, Executive Director at Sweet Relief Musicians Fund adds, “We’re beyond thrilled to celebrate 30 years of Sweet Relief while honoring the great Joan Baez and her amazing career. Joan has supported our charity for many years, and it’s a privilege to honor her this year alongside so many incredible artists. It will be a night to remember and I’m so grateful to Joan and all of the performers who will help ensure that our music community continues to have Sweet Relief as a resource for emergency financial assistance.” "Joan Baez is a mountain on our landscape, and has been for the entirety of my lifetime. As much as any artist I know, she has dismantled the wall between public artistry and personal conviction—investing each with the other, to create a body of work that, in the words of Woody Guthrie, "comforts the disturbed and disturbs the comfortable.” Musical Director, Joe Henry, adds and continues, “What a singular honor, then, for all us to gather in honor of her —and to benefit the heroic organization Sweet Relief, that provides financial assistance to musicians in health crisis. Come February 8th at San Francisco's historic Masonic Auditorium—in her name, and in these wicked times— we will raise our voices as Joan has." The February event is part of an ongoing series of shows presented by Sweet Relief Musicians Fund. Sweet Relief Musicians Fund provides services and financial assistance for career musicians and music industry professionals. Grants are earmarked for medical and vital living expenses, including insurance premiums, prescriptions, medical treatment and operative procedures, housing costs, food costs, utilities, and other basic necessities. =================== Farewell, Angelina lyrics: The bells of the crown Are being stolen by bandits I must follow the sound The triangle tingles And the trumpets play slow Farewell Angelina The sky is on fire And I must go There’s no need for anger There’s no need for blame There’s nothing to prove Ev’rything’s still the same Just a table standing empty By the edge of the sea Farewell Angelina The sky is trembling And I must leave The jacks and the queens Have forsaken the courtyard Fifty-two gypsies Now file past the guards In the space where the deuce And the ace once ran wild Farewell Angelina The sky is folding I’ll see you in a while See the cross-eyed pirates Sitting perched in the sun Shooting tin cans With a sawed-off shotgun And the neighbors they clap And they cheer with each blast Farewell Angelina The sky’s changing color And I must leave fast King Kong, little elves On the rooftops they dance Valentino-type tangos While the makeup man’s hands Shut the eyes of the dead Not to embarrass anyone Farewell Angelina The sky is embarrassed And I must be gone The machine guns are roaring The puppets heave rocks The fiends nail time bombs To the hands of the clocks Call me any name you like I will never deny it Farewell Angelina The sky is erupting I must go where it’s quiet Written by Bob Dylan
