Free Music Review: One of the best CD's you will ever listen to
Hit: 5 Stars
I used to have this CD years ago, as a teenager i loved how the melodic blues scales used to just ease with the sitars and tubla's on this album, I could never remember when a song started or stopped but i never really wanted it to stop.
I lost it a few years ago sadly whilst movie around for college, and having just bought it again its quite nostalgic. A time when i remember not having much of a care in the world to now being a responsible adult and finally sharing this album with a person I am in love with.
I hope to keep this album for many years, it has been a huge part of my life.
A Meeting by the River Poster
Ry Cooder has long had an interest in other people's music, from the blues and gospel of black America through classic jazz and the music of Cuba. Even by this standard, his meeting with Mohan Vishwa Bhatt is certainly a departure. He is neither a serious student of Indian music nor in any way a master of its intricacies. Yet on his improvised session (this album was recorded without rehearsal in one evening), he and Bhatt truly collided musically and created moments worthy of the world-music Grammy they received for it. Bhatt is an iconoclastic character himself. He plays a modified box he calls the mohan vina that is a hybrid of a classical Indian instrument and slide guitar. He is long trained in the arduous classical style, yet his work has always demanded a lot of freedom. His duets here with Cooder are completely unique, liberating both artists from the usual constraints and creating a new musical style that is unlikely to be repeated or imitated. --Louis GibsonBlues Music CDs
