Description:

American original Taj Mahal has been redefining the blues while maintaining an unassailably authentic sound since the 1960s, and on his 2008 album, MAESTRO, his powers show no sign of diminishment. From the flashy funk of "Dust You Down" to the reggae grooves of "Brown Man, Black Man," and the New Orleans second-line rhythm of "Hello Josephine," he often ventures beyond the traditional blues but it`s still there in everything he does, like a sonic fingeprint that can`t be altered.
