Moments Worth Waiting For
The infectious call-and-response hand-claps during the bridge of Willie and the Hand Jive.
Taj's gravelly, warm baritone turning the simple repetition of Oh Mary Mack into a rhythmic masterclass.
The transition from the playful Beans and Cornbread into the somber, historical weight of Follow the Drinking Gourd.
