Our Take

Illuminations, the latest offering from folk icon Buffy Sainte-Marie, is like a whimsical journey into a dream world where unicorns roam free and folk music reigns supreme. This album is a delightful mix of psychedelic sounds, haunting melodies, and celestial vocals that will transport you to another dimension faster than you can say "groovy, man."

From the moment the ethereal opening track "God is Alive, Magic is Afoot" hits your eardrums, you know you're in for a trippy ride. Sainte-Marie's voice soars like a cosmic angel, weaving in and out of the intricate instrumentals with ease and grace. It's impossible not to get lost in the swirling synths and hypnotic beats that make up this sonic tapestry.

Tracks like "Better to Find Out for Yourself" and "The Vampire" showcase Sainte-Marie's masterful storytelling abilities, drawing you in with their compelling narratives and otherworldly soundscapes. And let's not forget about the groovy vibes of "Poppies" and the soulful introspection of "Guess Who I Saw in Paris."

Overall, Illuminations is a truly magical listening experience that will leave you feeling uplifted, inspired, and possibly questioning reality itself. Buffy Sainte-Marie has once again proven why she's a folk legend, and this album is a testament to her talent and enduring creativity. So grab your headphones, light some incense, and prepare to be Illuminated. ✨🧙‍♀️
