This album is a good example of how to mix blues and African music, also adding some rich folk melodies Canadian harmonica player Mike Stevens and African musician Okaidja Afroso, who comes from Ghana and sings and plays various instruments, have successfully combined a mixture of these music styles, and they have done it with a very original taste The collaboration between these two musicians has given a rewarding result and has also been very well received by fans All songs have a clear message that is brought through hypnotic rhythms and sincere moaning laments Despite being a complex work, these ten songs gather a rich, varied and cool combination of two different cultures, which will satisfy the most demanding palates The whole record becomes an unusual combination of hypo-caloric primary music fans will hardly forget In short words, this is an album with huge deep roots
