Magical. He had family with a birthday in the audience. Pulled out all the stops. Flawless energetic show. So good. Kaia Ketter was opening act. Really good. Young singer songwriter. I believe she has a great future.

This was such a joyous evening, with a stage FULL of talent, and Taj at the helm, leading us all with his joy. Have wanted to see him for many years, and am so elated I did this week. A man with a reputation as a top notch entertainer (he sings, and plays multiple instruments, not to mention tells a good joke). But his reputation didn't do justice to the man and his band! Awesome, awesome show!!

Excellent show. Taj still has it and puts out great music. He is so talented. Unfortunately, his steel drum player had a medical issue during the show I hope he is OK.

The World Stage venue on the Holland America Eurodam was perfect for enjoying the sound of Tah Mahal & his band. His singing, playing, & engagement with the audience was phenomenal.

Taj Mahal was fantastic as usual. The quintet was tight. He played classic times and updated them to fit this arrangement. His command of the stage was dynamic. Despite his age (82) he still has it. The Grass Valley enter for the Arts was also a star. It adds a new dynamic to the concert venues in the region.

Put on a great show.Told great stories, played great songs and above all fantastic singing and playing by him and the band.

Taj Mahal 0is just simply amazing! Sounded just as good as last time I saw him and it had to be close to 30 years ago. Great show Taj!

Taj Mahal and his band are legendary. The opener Sona Jobarteh and her band were inspiring as well!! It was their last night on the tour, so it felt extra special.

The show was Great!! That was my first time seeing Taj, and I’m so glad I got to experience him.Wished it was longer

This was a special event for my wife and I - we danced to Taj and his band on our first date 47 years ago at the Rusty Nail, a converted tobacco barn in Sunderland, Massachusetts. Taj was wonderful, and his voice was as strong and gravelly as it was back then (although he wasn’t boogying around the stage like back when he could do an actual cakewalk!), and the addition of a maestro like Sona Jobarteh was an unexpected bonus. Also the talent of his band was phenomenal, from the ex-Coral Reefers steel drummer to the Hawaiian pedal steel guitar player, who did a searingly beautiful version of the instrumental “Sweet Talk”, which was always that last slow song at the high school dances. And his Trinidadian drummer - well, do you remember Animal on the Muppet Show? That’s him. Two complaints, though. First, Taj didn’t come on till after 9 (for a 7:30 show), and we didn’t get enough of his newer music, because he didn’t play that long. Second, it seems the crowd came for Jobarteh (who got multiple standing ovations) and didn’t appreciate Taj (several people actually left during his set). Wife and I were ready to dance in the aisles, but most of the audience barely moved when he sang. Given his amazing career, and the fact that he was bringing such great African roots music to a wider audience, I was disappointed in the audience, but not the musicians. Having said that, the final jam involving both bands was rousing and wonderful.

I have seen Taj Mahall four times in the last six years. They are awesome. If you’ve never seen them you need to go see them they are the best jazz music ever.!

Taj Mahal is a fantastic, talented musician. I saw him briefly at JazzFest in NOLA and was looking forward to another performance at the Greek Theater last night. Unfortunately, the entrance lines were very long and slow and he started before we got it. I think he started around 7:15PM. We were seated by 7:25 and he stopped playing at 7:40. Was wondering why the show was so short. Did enjoy the few songs we heard but bummed!

Fantastic night of Taj and Friends taking us back for some jazzy, big band blues! SF Jazz Center is a wonderful venue!

What a wonderful evening Taj, John Simon and Chewy were great. Thank you Taj for signing my four Filmore cards from San Francisco and your new Stomping at the Savoy. Great new album.

Not a bad seat in the house. He played 6 instruments and is just great. Los Lobos was amazing too.

Taj was absolutely amazing. The 80 year old guy still can strum my heartstrings 5 STARS all the way!

Taj always puts on a great show and his band is super. I also saw them last March in Steamboat Springs, Colorado and they were great there too!

Great venue and a legendary singer, composer, and musician who can still play & sing as well as ever. The current supporting members of his quartet and the set list consisting of songs from many musical genres combined for a great evening of entertainment.
