I keep thinking the main riff is from a Jimmy Buffett tune I can't place....or some other tune I can't place...in either case, now I'm going to be searching my mental database for it for the rest of the day. Ugh.

Why does this tune remind me of Penguin Cafe Orchestra?

I was having the same sentiment, enjoying the next song in the lineup too:
Paul Simon - Once Upon A Time There Was An Ocean - adds to the sweetness of a Friday afternoon. Ender43 wrote: Wow, what a set: Taj Mahal - When I Feel The Sea Beneath My Soul

35 years ago I first heard West Indian Revelation (also on this compilation), which I loved but never knew who or what it was until just last year. So I uploaded it to the LRC and it's currently in review to get on this playlist. Any signed-on RP member who wants to hear it here, vote {YES} for my long-lost treasure! Thanks! |

I'm a big fan of Taj.
Just ordered that box set.
Anyone know what Taj has been doing lately?

That's gotta be Ry Cooder.
Anyone with the liner notes able to verify?

I'm thinking Guabi Guabi by Pork Tornado.

Great song, and this 3-CD set has plenty of good Taj stuff in it. Some odd choices sometimes - rare live versions of some tunes - but some wonderful old cuts like this one.
I've also been a big Taj fan since De Old Folks at Home... he just goes on and on.

Pleasant enough but I feel like I am in line at the supermarket in some surreal nightmare.
