The Gobe & Mail ran an review last week and said: "The success of this collaboration between Ahluwalia, best known as a singer of ghazals and Punjabi folk songs, with the Malian desert bands Tinariwen and Terakaft, can be measured by how easy it would be to hear it and not immediately realize it was a cultural fusion at all....Ahluwalia's fluid, powerful vocals (singing contemporary Urdu and Punjabi poetry she's set to music) translate effortlessly when melded with the Tuareg grooves that drive the album.
Special mention should also go to the contributions from ritti player Juldah Camara. His playing on Rabba Ru and Saffar take the tracks to a whole new extatic level.

My current favorite CD

Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
I just received Aam Aameen a few weeks ago and have listened to it over and over. I love the beautiful melodies that are sung with much delicacy and passion by Kiran Ahluwalia as well as the rhythms. I really enjoy the syncopated clapping and percussion. There is not one track on this CD that I do not like. I particularly enjoy the two tracks in which Kiran Ahluwalia wrote both the lyrics and the music, wish she would do that more. She is a wonderful musical artist and her husband Rez Assazi very much creates "a sound" with his guitar playing.

Went to see her live in Chicago several years back. Beautiful voice and great arrangements. This is her best work yet in my view.

Exciting Collaboration

Kiran Ahluwalia brings us another wonderful CD and though her voice shines through in exquisite beauty note for note, it doesn't end there. The collaboration with some of the most talented musicians in world music turns this gem into a work of art. This CD, or any of Kiran Ahluwalia's, is well worth some of your hard earned cash. The complexity of the music will undoubtably keep you listening to it for decades. Definitely a keeper!
