about

From the contemplative Always Love with its drone like harmonium, to a new rendition of Jai Ma Durgas with a bluesy hometown rocking MA transitioning into jazz simulating We Are Divinely Inspired, this album is a tribute to the Mother of the Universe. From The much loved ballad I Am Sat Nam now with a band of singers to sweeten the message, to the soul deepening mantra Om Namo Bhagavate which in this recording lends a more traditional Kirtan tone. In closing a prayerful and expansive solo Lokah Samastah Sukhino Bhavantu with myself on vocals and the harmonic harmonium drone. This Sanskrit mantra calls to Universal Peace and the track I hope stirs an inner feeling stillness.
This just under one hour album is a compilation of our favorite Kirtan songs along with new tracks recorded with the same full-hearted spirit that is found in a live concert. Many listeners have asked me to make this CD so they can leave the concert, plug in the music and still be there!

lyrics

A Chant to the Mother in her many forms. Among them, as Durgas the protectress; as Jagatambe, Mother Nature and Mother of the Universe. Amma Amma Ma is an endearing term for mother. 'Jai' in Sanskrit means 'Victory to' or in honor of.
Lyrics:
Amma Amma Ma
Jai Ma Jai Ma Jai Ma Durgas
Hey Ma Jagatambe
Hey Ma Are you listening?

So I have this vision of a golden boot
The kind a toddler wears on his baby foot
It is golden defined by a shimmery line
but inside the frame... empty space resides

We Are Divinely Inspired

It's a golden bootie
and a privilege to wear
Must have scored some hight points
so handle the boot with care

We Are Divinely Inspired

Now compassionate mother tied our baby boot on
With a tender, snuggle fit and a reassuring hug
So remember when you're walking on the lady's earth body
Will you walk aware? Or trounce without care?
Will you walk aware? Or trounce without care?

We Are Divinely Inspired

This is the end of my story but the wisdom walks on
If you acknowledge my footie and I celebrate yours
We can dance the golden bootie into heavenly doors

We Are Divinely Inspired

Jai Jai Ma, Jai Jai Ma, Jai Jai Ma, Jai Jai Ma

from MA, track released January 1, 2020
Auspiciously recorded one harvest full moon evening at Gradwell House Studios in Haddon Heights, New Jersey, this album MA was engineered by Dave Downham and Matt Weber with a full band of musicians and chanters: Jon Dichter on lead guitar; Shawn Hennessey on percussion; Taylor Jamison on bass; Bill Nixon on violin; Marianne Sutin on bansuri; Randy Sutin on vibes and myself on acoustic guitar and harmonium. Our band of chanters: Anjani Bellamy, Julie Fischer, Alan Fitts, Mira, Marthe O’Donnell, Martin Orimenko, Christopher Pecoraro, Renee Trailes, William Stauffer and Elizabeth Venart. The cool vibes were added in a few days after the session as the studio could not hold one more musician.
