Music reviews of Ancestral Voices

Music Review: A spiritual journey into the Native past
Rating: 5 Stars

This is my all-time favourite CD to put on if I cannot sleep; or if I've suffered a meltdown of any kind; or if I just need to cleanse my spirit. It was highly recommended to me by a Native American friend, and that person chose the exact right work.

I challenge anyone not to feel better after hearing the soul-mending music of Mr Nakai, but this album is exquisite in its production, design, and execution. I really am transported whenever I put it on; the days don't seem so long ago when a young warrior played his flute outside the tepee of his intended bride, and the lifestyle of that time seems so much the answer to the maddening pace of today. I've never been at all certain that the Europeans brought a more attractive world with them; the way of life of the Native Americans has always felt more real to me, and this album brings that world to life in my mind.

Flute isn't all there is here, either.Mr Nakai is aided superbly by the liquid, lilting guitar of William Eaton, which is so soothing and lovely it will bring anyone's blood pressure down immediately. And the final cut on the album is a haunting, lyrical drum circle, with raised plaintive Indian singing that will raise the hairs on the back of your neck in a good way. Sad, beautiful, it always makes me want to cry. If you enjoy Native American music, this album is the perfect addition to your library.
