What a rare track and with such quality of sound. It is blue as Mississippi blues. Tajmahal track everybody knows and nobody talking is another milestone. But this exhibits his class and true artistic work. Thanks Don the "Don if Blues"
@@cayemarvin - I know that it is from Mali - an Ethiopian pop music interprated beautifully in blues in Mali . Please check out and listen to some Ethiopian traditional music - masinko music - azmari music.
Taj Mahal was one of the first bluesmen to acknowledge the influence and deep relationship between blacks and Appalachian whites. while all that racism was going on, blacks and Appalachian whites were living together and making music together. Few people know that the banjo was actually an African instrument. And if you listen closely you can hear the Appalachian influence in a lot of Taj Mahal music. same for Appalachian music and it's call and response. I can listen to Taj Mahal all day.
Thanks for this comment and the information on the mixture of African and Appalachian music. I love it indeed. I was sure it was a Qanun playing, and could easily notice some middle eastern tunes in it as well, especially the clarinet part.
Saw Taj at the El-N-Gee in New London CT in 1989-1991 timeframe. Crazy. He played their piano, which must not have been very good, as he beat the shit out of it! It was magical. Thank you!
This was the most blessed time I clicked EVER. I always expect good music, but this one is beyond all the definitions of the good mood a song can cause on you
I really like this cut because it reminds me of a time when I visited some of my close friends in the deep south, down in the bayou as well as a flavor of music from India. Its interesting how the 2 culters are meld together in this music. Very nice.
Greetings Don. Your admiration for gorgeous sounds are never ending. We shouldn't just call this Sun Day but D.Day. Don's excellent choice of music, Don's way of reaching out to us and giving us, such great entertainment and pleasure. Actually, this piece of music - Taj Mahal - Catfish Blues really reminded me of Ali Farka Toure - Ai Du. Those lovely instruments with that kind of laid back sound. Wow. So all those Blues lovers with an ear for East African Blues. You just have to listen to more. Enjoy. Thanks again Don. Hope you are well.
Hello to you Gary. Thanks for your comment and, we shouldn't forget to acknowledge one another by expressing our thanks with a kind word, which can go a long long way. Keep listening and reading Gary, your making somebody happy!!! Warm wishes Anne.

What a brilliant composition by legendary blues Maestro Taj Mahal
One of the finest blues songs I ever heard! 😊
Enjoy!
What a rare track and with such quality of sound. It is blue as Mississippi blues.
Tajmahal track everybody knows and nobody talking is another milestone. But this exhibits his class and true artistic work. Thanks Don the "Don if Blues"
Taj Mahal..I grandi del Blues..🙏🏼🫶😘 Catfhisc Blues.. è poesia, Musica di emozioni ❤️
This song should have 20 million hits !
Amazing track, perfect sound quality and I just love the percussion. All the instrumentation is unworldly. 10 stars if I could!
A magnificent composition with a mix of music from different cultures! Fused effortlessly!
Masterpiece!
Love from Romania!❤

Se pare ca Badea stie muzica buna.
a very nice Ethiopian Amharic pop with the unmistakable sound of kirar in blues, thanks Taj Mahal.
This is music from Mali

Being from the Tennessee Appalachian mountains, this was a great read. Thanks for the awesome knowledge. ☺️
i've only just learned of blacks in appalachian areas, i'm really interested in stories about how it was and is growing up there as a black person
Thanks for this comment and the information on the mixture of African and Appalachian music. I love it indeed.
