| One of the most Emotionally Moving recordings i have heard (review from amazon.com) |
|
| 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.

| Doodle (review from amazon.com) |
|
| After repeated listenings, why I don't know, this album has just gotten worse. If one compares it to MEETING BY THE RIVER, it really palls. "Johnny Too Bad" is the only cut I can imaging listening to again - hence the 1 star. Sorry, Taj.

| too many fillers too much fumbling (review from amazon.com) |
|
| This CD was a great disappointment to me as I like all of the artists. Tracks 1 and 3 are purely instrumental and meander along in a very unstriking fashion. In the songs Bhatt and Ravikiran don't seem too sure what thay are meant to be doing, so only very occasionally is there any fluidity in their playing.

| Another great Mahaler (review from amazon.com) |
|
| Anyone who was intrigued by _Kulanjan_ will find this album of interest too; it's another exploration by Taj Mahal of how his music intersects and interlocks with that of another culture, in this case, Indian. Throughout the album, the music is understated but definitely stands up well under repeat listens - especially the 11-minute-plus version of Robert Johnson's "Come on in my kitchen".
