Review

Rolling Stone (3/19/98, pp.64-66) - 4 Stars (out of 5) - "...a haunting, richly textured blend of ancient spirituality, rattle-the-walls guitar and hypnotic beats....a national chronicle of glory and shame, a personal story ringing with conviction."

CONTACT FROM THE UNDERWORLD OF REDBOY was nominated for a 1999 Grammy for Best World Music Album and Best Engineered Album, Non-Classical.

The erstwhile leader of the Band has never looked back since he split from that legendary ensemble. Each of his solo efforts has explored further and further into new musical areas. CONTACT FROM THE UNDERWORLD OF REDBOY is no exception. Here Robertson pays homage to his Native American heritage while venturing into the decidedly more modern realm of electronica. The thick textures, both electronic and organic, serve to underscore the message inherent in Robertson's lyrics. Essentially, CONTACT examines both the heritage of the Native Americans and the way in which it has been destroyed. The studio wizardry of Howie B is appropriately understated, adding a contemporary sheen to Robertson's somewhat Daniel Lanois-esque tunes without upstaging them.
