Taj Mahal - The Hidden Treasures of Taj Mahal 1969-1973 - 2 x 180g Vinyl LPs
Numbered Limited Edition
2023
As one of the most prominent figures in late 20th century blues, singer/multi-instrumentalist Taj Mahal played an enormous role in revitalizing and preserving traditional acoustic blues. Not content to stay within that realm, Mahal broadened his approach. He took a musicologist's interest in a multitude of folk and roots music from around the world - reggae and other Caribbean folk, jazz, gospel, R&B, zydeco, various West African styles, Latin and even Hawaiian music. The African-derived heritage of most of those forms allowed Mahal to present the blues as part of a wider musical context.
The 2LP The Hidden Treasures Of Taj Mahal was originally released in 2012 and a compilation of some of Mahal's finest work. LP 1 features studio tracks that were previously unreleased, recorded between 1969 and 1973. LP 2 contains the full live concert from April 18, 1970, at the Royal Albert Hall in London.
The Hidden Treasures Of Taj Mahal 1969-1973 is available of 1500 individually numbered copies on crystal clear & blue marbled vinyl, housed in a gatefold sleeve and includes printed innersleeves.
