JOAN Baez is a musical force of nature whose influence is incalculable.

She marched on the front line of the civil rights movement with Martin Luther King, inspired Vaclav Havel in his fight for a Czech Republic, sang on the first Amnesty Interna­tional tour and stood alongside Nelson Mandela when the world celebrated his 90th birthday in London's Hyde Park.

2008 was a landmark year for Joan as she celebrated 50 years since she began her legendary residency at Boston's famed Club 47 and released her first studio album in five years.

This week she performs a concert not to be missed at The Hexagon in Reading.

Tuesday, 7.30pm, £37.50
