Title: COREY'S CORE STILL PRESENT
Review: as mr. harris has already said, this album is somewhat of a departure from his 2 earlier efforts. this, in and of itself, should not deter "open eared" listeners from appreciating the work. harris' efforts to combine/merge/blend other relevant styles to his music is in some ways risky if the only consideration is to please previous buyers of his work. music, in particular, and art, in general should not be restrained by past successes or failures. i, for one, am pleased that corey harris ventured out and presented us with some unique and creative combinations of instrumentation and style. harris' core of blues influences is never forsaken in the process; rather he widens the horizon of his "party." i recommend this album to those willing to forego musical "expectations."
