    Most of the comments below mention only Cooder, as if Vishwa Mohan Bhatt were some session sideman. He's not, he's a master in a tradition of Indian Guitar little known in the west. I've been a fan of Cooder for 30+ years, but this is a COLABORATION between TWO great guitarists.

    I was born a white man by chance. I thank all my African American brothers who have been writing and singing the blues for so long now. Many times, in the most distressed moments of my life, I felt there was nothing like such great music to listen to my heart and soul's pain, and soothe me to keep going no matter what. My life owes so much to such great music.

    A Meeting by the River-is one of the most striking cross-cultural works of the 1990s which brought Grammy Awards for Best World Music Album to renowned guitarists Ry Cooder & Vishwa Mohan Bhatt. The four-track album was recorded as improvisation since both musicians had first met just an hour before the recording session.
    The idea of ​​joining two musical traditions through a slide technique belonged to Ry Cooder who was very impressed to hear the Indian classical repertoire performed by Vishwa Mohan Bhatt on the Mohan veena-a unique instrument of his own design.~~~

    Funny how rivers flow through different lands and can still lead to the same Delta Blues soul. We all have that ancient link to the water and the earth and those soft, moist, places where they become one. Rotting and growing from the decay, the saltwater and freshwater mixing with the tides, the trade winds and all that concentrated life, death, danger and peacefulness meeting in one place of beauty. Hiding wonders that can enthrall you.
    Like this gem I discovered by accident in this swampland known as UA-cam. Where so many ideas, people, songs and tunes meet from across this planet. A great delta at the end of innumerable rivers. Another gem for my collection. A serendipitous event for us all.

      Say it VJ. He's a pretty funny guy isn't he?. First time I saw Ry was 1974 at the Bottom Line and that was an interesting show (for those who know of this night). I've seen him do the 'Jazz' project as well as 'Buena Vista (the only US show at Carnegie). In between? Chicken Skin band (with Flaco & the Pahuinis) a couple of times at Princeton U., Bop Till You Drop (w/John Hiatt) shows/tour , a Jazz/Blues show one night in NYC with Joe Louis Walker. I remember the Ali Farka show which was cancelled in NYC at the last minute due to war in his home country. Or of late with Ricky Skaggs and the Family Band where bluegrass and gospel was beautifully done. LuRN.

    Sunday morning coming down, eating breakfast, getting ready for church, talk about a God moment! Music is about half of my life, my main companions are a Irish Bouzouki and a Tenor Guitar with several other toys that I play at playing.
    I long ago unplugged my T.V, and now just use You Tube for everything, new, info, movies, weather and of course MUSIC. I'm 78 Yrs old and waiting for the next big thing to help keep me happy until my pine box arrives.
    In N.M. where I live you can be buried in a cardboard box, (still legal) and in your backyard if you own it! Kind of like a 3rd - world country and that's why I moved here many years ago, blessings world.

    I was captivated by the charming music first time I heard A Meeting By The River album; thank you Eileen sis-in-law for the CD. I found the inter-play between two such different guitars amazingly beautiful - Visma Mohan Bhatt's self-created mohan vina, a hybrid between guitar and the Indian vichitra vina, and Ry's bottleneck guitar. And ably supported by Sukhvinder Singh Hamdhari on tabla and Ry's 14-year-old son Joachim on dumbek, a Middle Eastern bongo-like hand drums.
    Ry and Bhatt apparently met for the first time less than an hour before the recording session at the Christ The King Chapel in Santa Barbara California. The fusion collaboration musical inter-play is spontaneous and tranquil, said to be a one-take only. As the album moves on, Ry embraced more Indian sound while Bhatt more bluesy.
    No, it is not an Indian music album. How to categorise it? Well, the album was voted BEST WORLD MUSIC album in the 1994 Grammy Awards. A must listen album.

    i have been to Vishwa Mohan Bhatt's house in Jaipur and seen his instruments and been shown how they are played by his son......he was not in town at the time being that he was giving concerts all over India at the time........his guitars had been Indianised in that they were meant to played as lie flat slide guitars but some of them had sympathetic drone strings just like sitars, derubas and sarods have. he had already done the album with Rye Cooder by the time that i got taken there and there was posters and writing about it, not to mention an album.......i used to do business in Jaipur and i know the city like a second home even keeping a motorbike there to this day. Vishwa Mohan Bhatt is the pride of the city, he is the only world class musician who lives there.

    Bought this when it came out along with Bhatt’s other on Water Lily Acoustics and the one Ry did with Ali Farka Toure. Aside from being beautiful music, they are some of the best sounding recordings of the last 40 years, painstakingly done. Bhatt is a masterful improviser and Ry, well, he’s been one of America’s great treasures for a long time now, a musician and musicologist who can make any project soar.
