I like how they start their Sundays in New Orleans.

“When you meet Taj Mahal, it's like a day with an extra helping of cake,” explains Linda Ronstadt. The singer talks about Taj Mahal, one of the most fearless blues musicians of the twentieth century.
With a lot of tradition and just as much experimentation, he saves the blues from insignificance. Despite its massive influence on pretty much all major popular styles, the blues as a genre in its own right is still only a niche music.

Recorded in Nashville with Keb’ and Taj co-producing, Room On The Porch finds the pair in peak form, playing to each other’s strengths and opening up new creative horizons more than a half-century into their storied careers. The songs are warm and inviting here, rooted in the joy of human connection and the power of positivity, and the performances are as timeless as they are adventurous, incorporating the full spectrum of American roots music from blues and jazz to folk and country.
