Diamonds & Rust | Joan Baez Folk Guitar Cover

Before there was a folk music revival, there was Joan Baez. At eighteen, she walked onto the Newport Folk Festival stage and changed American music forever. She marched with Dr. King, introduced Bob Dylan to the world, and proved that one voice with a guitar could be louder than any army. Tonight I'm playing "Diamonds & Rust" - her devastating masterpiece about receiving a phone call from Dylan ten years after their affair ended - and "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down," the Robbie Robertson song she transformed into her biggest hit. Two songs from the voice of a generation. This is Joan Baez, as played by a 77-year-old guitarist who grew up listening to her change the world. 0:00 - The Story of Joan Baez 1:30 - Diamonds & Rust (1975) 4:30 - The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down (1971) ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ SONG 1: DIAMONDS & RUST ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Written by Joan Baez in 1975 after receiving an unexpected phone call from Bob Dylan. The title says it all: their relationship gave her diamonds (precious memories) and rust (the pain of what might have been). Her most personal and revealing song. MUSICAL NOTES: Key: Em (with capo variations common) Tempo: ~108 BPM (flowing, waltz-like) Style: Folk ballad with classical guitar influences Signature Elements: Arpeggiated picking pattern, dramatic dynamic shifts, literary lyrics PERFORMANCE TIPS: The fingerpicking pattern is essential - let each note ring clearly Build dynamics throughout - start intimate, grow to the emotional climax The lyrics are poetry - enunciate clearly and let the words land ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ SONG 2: THE NIGHT THEY DROVE OLD DIXIE DOWN ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Written by Robbie Robertson for The Band in 1969. Joan's 1971 version went to #3 on the Billboard Hot 100 - her biggest commercial hit. A song about the human cost of war, told through the eyes of a Confederate farmer named Virgil Cane. MUSICAL NOTES: Key: Am (moving to C for chorus) Tempo: ~92 BPM (steady, marching feel) Style: Folk-rock ballad, Americana Signature Elements: Dramatic storytelling, sing-along chorus, historical imagery PERFORMANCE TIPS: This is a STORY song - inhabit Virgil Cane's perspective The chorus should swell with emotion - it's a lament, not a celebration Keep the guitar steady and rhythmic - this song needs a solid pulse ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ABOUT BRUCE LANDE: I'm a 77-year-old guitarist with over 60 years playing experience.
