Taj Mahal?

Too far out for a "World" music festival? He has a wide range of material.

I love taj mahal and would be all in favor of an apperance by him at SNWMF this June...

His show at Kate Wolf Music Fest was great, but the material performed was way way way from the music we enjoy at SNWMF. His trio is amazing.

He played at NWWRF and it was a good show. SNWMF is the perfect place for him to play. Sierra Nevada WORLD Music festival. Doesnt say reggae in the name at all.

Even thought it is mainly a reggae festival and most people go to see/hear reggae and when people talk about the best reggae festivals SNWMF is usually mentioned.

Taj Mahal is great, i've seen him several times and always enjoyed it. I love the Hula Band recordings. I heard him sing Chain Gang outside in Justin Herman Plaza in San Francisco many years ago, he had the whole crowd singing, Ooh, Aah . Unforgettable.

Love that reggae!

I first heard Taj Mahal during the summer of love and was a big fan during that time.
I'd love to see/hear him again....

I totally agree with you Mulligan, my point I was trying to make was SNWMF is also a festival where you can catch other artists. I remember my last SNWMF in 08 the band that played Sunday night was The Beat or The English beat and it was a lot of fun! I am all about reggae and I agree that SNWMF is the best REGGAE festival out there. I just like that they dont limit themselves to reggae!

I've heard some great "world" music at the festival - especially when midnite plays so I can move to the other stage.
King Chango
Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra
Cheb I Sabbah
El GranSilencio

but it is a reggae festival nonetheless.

dude has skills... been seeing Taj since I was a lil kid

Respect Same Way

Taj is an all-time great. SNWMF would be blessed to have him perform. And he has a few reggae songs up his sleeve too....
