Taj Mahal is joined by Indian master musicians N. Ravikiran and V.M. Bhatt on a selection of tunes that ultimately owe more to obvious blues clichés than they do to cross-cultural collaboration.  Perhaps that's because nearly half of the album's tunes -- including Robert Johnson's 'Come on in My Kitchen,' 'Mary Don't You Weep,' and 'Johnny Too Bad' -- have long been staples of Taj Mahal's concert catalog.  This isn't to say that the set doesn't have any moments of inspired improvisation and nuanced playing; there are a few instances of brilliance.  But that seems a terrible waste of the talent gathered, unless the listener is looking for nothing more than an unlikely blues workout. ~ Brian Beatty, AMG





The passion heard in the selections nearly brings me to tears inside. for some reason this collaboration hits me right to the center of my heart and soul--like a type of music i've been waiting for and finally found. maybe there is a previously unreleased version of 'Amazing Grace' that will show up on a later digitally remastered disc.  If only we could know what other songs they had considered incorporating.  Yes..it's that Good ! Gospel-Blues-Reggae, it's all here for the taking.  Cherish the moment over and over. ~ Dave P.
