Our Take

TAJ MAHAL & RY COODER Get On Board: All Aboard the Soul Train!

If music is a journey, then Taj Mahal and Ry Cooder have just punched our tickets for a soulful ride on the Get On Board express. From the moment the first note hits, you know you're in for a wild and exhilarating trip through the rich landscapes of blues, folk, and Americana.

Mahal's gritty vocals transport you to the smoky juke joints of the Mississippi Delta, while Cooder's masterful slide guitar weaves a tapestry of sound that is as uplifting as it is captivating.

Tracks like "Sitting on Top of the World" and "John the Revelator" are infectious foot-stompers that demand to be played on repeat, while the haunting "Deep Blue Sea" lulls you into a trance-like state of bliss.

But it's the title track, "Get On Board," that truly steals the show. With its infectious chorus and rollicking rhythm, this song is like a shot of pure musical adrenaline straight to the heart.

Overall, Taj Mahal and Ry Cooder have crafted an album that is equal parts timeless and fresh. Get On Board is a triumph of collaboration, showcasing two masters at the top of their game. All aboard the soul train, folks – this is one ride you don't want to miss!
