Henry Saint Clair Fredericks is the real name of Taj Majal, who was born in New York in 1942, son of a jazz arranger musician The cd was recorded live in July, 18th 1980 at the Salle Wilfried-Pelletier Auditorium in Place des Arts, Montreal where Taj played backed by the international ‘Rhythm Band’ Twenty five years later of that recording, Just A Memory record label has reissued it again, keeping the same cool atmosphere combined with a very actual sound Majal shows his usual performing abilities and conviction The result is a good piece of work, which enables us to rediscover a musician who not only plays and sings blues but also flirts with other musical references like Cuban music or other Antilles rhythms
