Reviews
Included in Q Magazine's "90 Best Albums of the 1990s.", Included in Q's List of the Fifty Best Albums of 1990., Rated one of the ten best recordings of 1990. - "...Intricate Brazilian rhythms; complex, inward-looking lyrics. And something else too: good fun...", 4 Stars - Excellent "...extends his reach not only further into the riches of world-beat music but further into the realm of the spiritual...a song cycle that examines with visionary beauty and brooding intensity the viability of faith in a corrupt, heartless and sometimes merely predictable world...", "...Pleasant and Surprisingly Raw...", 3.5 Stars - Good plus - "...The second chapter in Simon's globetrotting phase is a production of epic proportions...with luscious, seductively rhythmic results. It's just that, somehow, the sensory pleasures of the album are more persuasive than the intellectual equation of the experiment...", "...This is gorgeous stuff, spiritually potent, with its utter integrity nowhere in doubt..." - Rating A+
