Nasheet Waits: Drums
“Pictures at an African Exhibition” pays homage to Russian composer Modest Mussorgsky’s similarly-titled piano suite, “Pictures at an Exhibition” — each of the 13 tracks draws inspiration from corresponding works of art by David Emmanuel Noel. The overall theme of the album is one of unity: “I wanted to create a work that shows how we as a human family have more in common than our differences would lead us to believe.”

There Is A Place
by Maishasupported by 7 fans who also own “Pictures at an African Exhibition”
As someone who has worked with spiritualism for many years, currently as an initiate (elégùn) in a Brazilian candomblé tradition, I find this album touching and uplifting - it more than fulfills its promises of real, new and vibrant spiritual jazz.
