Review

Q (8/00, p.119) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...Provides a dizzying example of Khan at his best..."
CMJ (6/19/00, p.24) - "...A collection that encompasses every ounce of guttural spiritualism and bottomless polyrhythmic hypnotics of his most astounding traditional Qawwali works."
JazzTimes (10/00, p.75) - "...Illustrates nicely the carefully balanced degrees of improvisational abandon and control in Khan's vocals, complemented beautifully by his wrap-around ensemble..."
Mojo (Publisher) (7/00, p.116) - "...Nusrat doesn't hold back, whipping his band into an impassioned tsunami offering tribute to the Sufi saints and Mohammed. Greatest voice of all time, agreed? It's blistering stuff..."

If you've ever been to a religious prayer meeting of any denomination, you'll be familiar with the emotional content of this collection of archive recordings of the master Pakistani qawwal Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan. Devotional, inspirational, at times ecstatic, these songs echo the soulful call and response of Gospel music, the timelessness of ancient Hebrew hymns, and the grittiness of traditional folk music.

Nusrat's tempered, mystical wail predominates, but the shifting rhythms and the complex melodies of the qawwali party (and it certainly sounds like a party) are what drive these energetic pieces along. As with all the best religious gatherings the overall effect is, of course, hypnotic; there is ultimately no choice but to surrender to the all-enveloping chants, and, like the participants in these compelling recordings, be carried along on the euphoric sonic wave of these songs of devotion to the ineffable.
