Reviews
Elegant and entrancing.
7 April 1996
...Night Song is a Westerner’s dream of mysticism; the collaboration produces special, moody music.
17 March 1996
This collaboration with Michael Brook and his guitars provides the most natural complement to Nusrat’s harmonium-tabla drums formula, yet never overshadows the mystical power of his voice.
6 April 1996
..this collaboration demonstrates a distinct stroke of genius...a most intoxicating spiritually uplifting cross-cultural expression.
8-14 March 1996
The world’s best singer has a gag put in his mouth and delivers an ambient album that couldn’t be smoother if it was silk.
18 December-1 January 1997
Night Song is an excellent sequel to Nusrat’s "pop" album ‘Mustt Mustt’.
May/June 1996
Michael Brook is...an unmistakeably original producer who knows how to put a great vocal instrument into a stunning new context...this is a truly great record.
May 1996
Another potentially prophetic collaboration from the Real World studios.
