The North Indian Bhatt stretches in a different direction for this collaboration with country/bluegrass dobro virtuoso Douglas and bassist Meyer, Douglas's frequent partner in Nashville. Both the dobro and the upright bass employ sliding tones, of course, and are quite compatible with Bhatt's mohan vina. All but one of the eight tunes on this all-instrumental album were written by one or more of the three musicians, and they come up with lovely, shimmering, legato lines. Instead of the earthy qualities elicited by Mahal's blues, Douglas and Meyer bring out the yearning and melodic qualities of Bhatt's playing with the result that this is Bhatt's most tuneful and accessible project yet. --Geoffrey Himes

 One of the best "East meets West" instrumental musics July 19, 2002

This is truly one of the best 'world' fusions I have ever heard!
One can always wonder how such a mixture is possible: blue grass and hindustani music and it works!
I highly recommend this wonderful work.

One of my favourites on long drives. This has the right mix of indian classical(hindustani) and the down south-blues styles. They complement each other with surprising fluidity. Perhaps, I expected too much from the acoustics. But, they are refreshingly clear and smooth notes of all the stringed instruments can be *felt* sliding down into your heart. By far, one of the best from guitar-based fusion stuff.
