| On Remember
Shakti, jazz guitarist John McLaughlin returns to one of his chief
inspirations -- classical Indian music -- by re-forming his '70s group
Shakti. Original members Zakir Hussain (tabla) and Vikku Vinayakram
(ghatam) return, joined by Hariprasad Chaurasia on the bansuri (Indian
flute). Remember Shakti has a more meditative, fluid feel than the
percussive work of the original group, but McLaughlin's subtle, hypnotic
guitar work bridges Shakti's past and present. Remember Shakti's
double-disc length gives the group ample time to explore the intricacies
of compositions like "The Wish," "Chandrakauns," and the hour-plus
"Mukti." An emotionally rich, musically accomplished album, Remember
Shakti reunites a unique group of players. |
