[Notes]
Joan Baez also gave ten concerts at the Paris Olympics on their "Fare Thee Well Tou" tour in June 2018. Together with her fans, the folk icon reviews six decades of music. A unique, emotional evening. For Joan Baez music and social engagement belong together. The singer is one of the outstanding figures of the counterculture: she sang in Woodstock, raised her voice against the Vietnam War, demonstrated alongside Martin Luther King and denounced dictatorships all over the world. Concerns for which the American woman is as passionate today as in the 1960s. In early 2018 Joan Baez brought out a new album to the delight of her fans: "Whistle Down the Wind". Ten years earlier she had recorded on "Day After Tomorrow" songs by Tom Waits, Mary Chapin Carpenter, Josh Ritter and others. At the Olympia, her new songs and her famous hits and compositions by Bob Dylan are on the program. New, old and cover versions - what more could you want on a farewell tour? GOOD-BYE, JOAN
