Product Details

Taj Mahal was already a living legend when he linked up with Keb' Mo' for this 2017 collaboration, two artists who'd each spent decades proving that the blues could stretch in any direction without losing its soul. The pairing felt less like a marketing stunt and more like a long-overdue conversation between kindred spirits, the kind of record that reminds you why roots music has always been a living, breathing thing.


TajMo marks a timely convergence of the talents of two unique American artists who've already built iconoclastic individual legacies that have extended and expanded blues traditions into adventurous new territory. The collaboration brings out the best in both artists, with the pair merging their distinctive voices, personalities and guitar styles to create vibrant, immediate music that's firmly rooted in tradition yet ruled by a playful sense of adventure. The album features guest appearances by Sheila E., Joe Walsh, Lizz Wright and Bonnie Raitt, who lends her voice to a distinctive cover of John Mayer's anthemic 'Waiting on the World to Change.'
