Jazz with world music influences featuring Nana Simopoulos on
guitar and vocals, Charlie Haden on bass, Don Cherry on Trumpet, Nana
Vasconcelos on percussion, Jim Pepper in Saxophone.
Nana's sitar playing alone makes it well worth purchasing! Her vocal
work on the compositions adds a dimension of inspiration and spirit that
elevate this album far above the "just another" classification. Ms. Simopoulos is a master at using
silence to heighten the energies of a song.
Nana Simopoulos takes the road less traveled. She is determined to stay
mysterious. There is mystery on every track. It's sometimes pushed along
by subtle Middle Eastern rhythms, sometimes by shimmering like still
waters that run deep. Dive in and let the magic begin.

Well done!
Still got the vinyl in my collection.

Thanks for the comment high fidelity.
I think she's a bit underestimated,even though she made some beautiful records and played with well-known musicians,like on this one.
