I kinda like the relaxed rawness and intimacy - just makes me wish I was sitting in the audience and soakin up the vibes and the vocal interplay. I love Taj's work - from Hawaii to Africa, he always seems to have his hand on the essence of the music. cold night, warm fire, press play, again amen for the career overview on taj!

They are both incredible jewels (and also somehow a bit redondant if my memory is exact) and yet shows only little of the work of Taj Mahal (which is strange for an anthology) I think there is a ine inside saying Taj chose the tracks he liked the most. It could be a clearer way of depicting this 3 CD set. Still, Thanks for the writing and sounds :) I own both disks - Recycling The Blues & Other Related Stuff, and In Progress & In Motion.
