"Essex's finest Anglo-Argentinian blues guitarist, Ramon Goose, always seems to have so many projects on the go that it can be hard to keep up ... Recorded in London and Marrakesh, these nine tracks may open with a Robert Johnson cover and close with some Bo Diddley, but both of those songs get relocated to the desert and in between there are Berber chants, powerful West African vocals, Algerian oud and a shedload of other Saharan influences, alongside the tasty blues licks. Guests include Justin Adams (...) and Anglo-Asian legend Najma Akhtar, whose vocals on the moody "Morning Light" are a highlight. There are moody soundscapes, poppier singalong, nods to Rachid Taha, Davey Graham and Ali Farka Touré ... A brief album, but there's much to enjoy here".
