Graciella Zogbi: Daivi Shakti I thought this CD would be a dream come true-- I imagined perfectly recorded swaramandals and serene Indian singing. The singing isn't bad-- probably good by Vedic standards but not the kind that appeals to a many Westerners, even those accustomed to listening to Indian music. This is certainly a great CD to practice your chanting. However, whenever the rhythms section is used (2 of the 5 songs), it is not well recorded and they go out of rhythm. This is very annoying, and I'm kind of shocked they even used these takes without correcting this. As a result, I can only give this an average rating. When I first saw the beautiful artwork on the cover, I was hyped about promoting this in the new age bookstore where I work, but now I'm reluctant as I won't be able to give it an unequivocal recommendation. Instead, I would recommend Devi: Prayers By Women by Karnamrita, or Jai Ma Kirtan: Songs to the Divine Mother by the Sri Ram Foundation. <A HREF="http://vedicdevataproductions.com/">Vedic Devata, devas, North Indian Classical Music, Indian Classical music, Devo</A>
