Description
|
|
|
|
Celebrating the singer/multi-instrumentalist's 70th birthday, this compendium of previously unreleased gospel, mountain, and blues tunes includes "Chainey Do," two alternate takes of "Sweet Mama Janisse," "Jacob's Ladder," "Good Morning, Little School Girl," "Checkin' Up on My Baby," "Oh! Susanna," "Running by the Riverside," "Shady Grove," and much more. "When I first heard 'Good Morning, Little School Girl' on Taj Mahal's 1968 Natch'l Blues, I knew I'd stumbled on an original performer from a new generation of bluesmen…. I appreciated Mahal's drive to experiment and take risks and not maintain old formulas. This was particularly true with his venturing into unusual rhythms, which gave his music a freshness that was 'out of the box,' to use Mahal's own term to describe his career as demonstrated on Hidden Treasures."—Seattle Post-Intelligencer
