Joan Baez has long been a fixture within the structure of Rock and Roll. Although her time was primarily in the 60s, with a short foray of popularity into the ’70s, her mark is unmistakable! She’s delivered more than a collectible array of songs and hits.
On April 7, Proper Records will release a 3CD set being called The Complete Gold Castle Masters that cover her three Gold Master label releases. Those include her two late ’80s studio issues, Recently (1987), and Speaking Of Dreams (1989), as well as her one live set with the label, Diamonds & Rust In The Bullring (1988). Proper Records will deliver the set in a 3CD Box. The set will be home to 33 racks from the label that Danny Goldberg ran. And while I’m not sure, my assumption is that these are going to feature new remastering,
