Ellen McIlwaine on her amazing Acoustic
Slide Guitar
, the wonderful improvisations of
Cassius Khan on Tablas along with Linsey
Wellman
's hypnotic Soprano Saxophone on
three selections* and Amika Kushwaha's
soulful Harmonium on the last selection**

"The Heart is in India, the Soul is in
the South and the Voice is in the
Middle East.."
Rick Overwater, EPCOR Centre Press

"...the disc has an exotic tinge starting with
the thrilling resonance of her guitar sounds
all buoyed up by Khan's lively, dexterous,
versatile drumming...sax like John Coltrane
goes to Egypt...their improvisation...is the
glue that holds the album together..."
Roger Levesque, Edmonton Journal
