There is so much to love about Kamal, starting with incredible harmonies, songwriting chops and stellar stage presence. It’s natural for Kamal to take a stab at ‘Afican Papillon’ considering her long-professed love for UB40. Stanley Donwood has compared writing for Kamal’s new album to that on ‘Mystery Road’ - but has declared the lyrics will be even more terrifying. It is very deep stuff - very exciting
Music of Shakuhaji Tales (Native Mix) is gentle, never overbearing. Such hits like Call Of The Muezzin will leave you hooked. After few listenings I started to like Those Flying Days more and more. Vocals of Kamal in Ripples really capture me and are set perfectly to the rhythm. More Tales Of Bululu (Dao Mix) is astounding. This track makes my mind whirl and vibrate with flowing energy. Pictures From Spain is the first taste of the new album. One of the songs that always stick in my mind is While You Are Here because the melody in the chorus is so good. Echoes and Voices one of the best in my collection.
