Yet another quality performance from the High Priestess of Soul. This effort was recorded live in Africa and it is fortunately not over- orchestrated. There are only two back-up musicians and they are both just right for spreading her special sound. Best cuts: “The Pusher,” “Mr. Bojangles,” “Obeah Woman.” (Billboard, 20 July 1974).
