Marcus Corbett “Strung Deep”


(marcuscorbett.com) What follows will be the dumbest, least perceptive review written about this impressive, atmospheric exploration of folk/world fusion: You ever notice the tabla is inherently whimsical? Corbett is making moving music that blends Western folk with Indian classical, even doing some interesting vocal chant exercises, and the mood is always soulfully serious, and somber at times…if you don’t notice how bouncy and groovy and fun that awesome tabla is! One can’t bounce somberly, can one?
