Diamonds & Rust (с англ. — «Бриллианты и ржавчина») — студийный альбом американской фолк-певицы Джоан Баэз, выпущенный в 1975 году. Пластинка включает, как интерпретации песен других исполнителей (Боб Дилан, Стиви Уандер, The Allman Brothers Band, Джексон Браун), так и песни авторства Джоан Баэз. К ним относится и заглавная Diamonds & Rust, источником вдохновения которой послужил Боб Дилан[1]. Песня сама стала перепеваться разными коллективами, самые известные из которых Judas Priest и Blackmore's Night.
