Juju - In Trance

Juju is guitar ace Justin Adams - longtime lead player for Robert Plant - and Juldeh Camara, a virtuoso of the one-stringed Ritti, who hails from one of Gambia's respected family dynasties of Griot musicians. The duo's spooky musical empathy is evident to anyone who's ever seen them tear the roof off in live performance, and this album is a one-take wonder of recording magic and their brilliant synergy, as they channel African trance rhythms, left-field Jazz hooks, and no-hold's-barred Rock fervor into a dense and compelling web of sound.
