Description
Taj has been playing his own distinctive brand of music -- variously described as Afro-Caribbean blues, folk-world-blues, hula blues, folk-funk, and a host of other hyphenations -- for more than 40 years. Caribbean, Hawaiian, African, Latin, and Cuban sounds and rhythms mix with folk, jazz, zydeco, gospel, rock, pop, soul, and R&B, all layered on top of a solid country blues foundation.

Don't watch the audience March 19, 2006
Scott C. Mcintyre (Colorado Springs, CO)
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
What was with the audience? They barely got into it in the first set... I'm a white boy but gotta say that I was ashamed to see the white boys sitting there not moving their hands. Bought tickets on the "package deal" on their vacation??? Pitiful! DON'T WATCH THE AUDIENCE. Listen to the excellent blues and close your eyes when they pan to the audience. This is good stuff.
Blues Legend rockin' with great band! January 21, 2006

Taj Mahal gives a great performance in this catchy, 'make you want to dance' type of show in the Carribean. Taj having assembled the Phantom Blues Band to tour with him for several years dating from the later 90's and into the 2000's they are a killer band, and he is always great. This DVD has a great set list consisting of both Taj classics like "Queen Bee", "Mailbox Blues", and "Further on Down the Road" to other more recent Taj hits like, "Here in the Dark", "Senor Blues" and "Rain from the Sky".
The Filming is Crystal Clear but has a few sub-par camera angles, but the sound is impecable. Formatted in Dolby Digital 5.1 surround and DTS it is sure to impress in your home theater. A good buy and a great artist whose music is sure to get your hips shakin!
