One Drop is Plenty

Getting rave reviews for the sound quality and the soul of the album. Getting mostly 5 out of 5's from all critics. This album was proudly mastered by Björn Engelmann. You get a combination that blends the best from two chapters of blues and soul music’s history. One chapter is about a singer who has “lived the blues” from the time he ran away from home in Louisiana 13 years old and has been “on the road” since then. The second chapter is about how blues music through rhythm ‘n blues and rock has reached several generations in Europe and created a unique style of play among countless guitarists who have then in turn sought their ideal musical roots.

Love Duets Across Civilization - Scent of Reunion

A mighty American soul master, Mighty Sam McClain, and a lioness of Persian music, Mahsa Vahdat, meet a Norwegian human rights activist / producer, and sing a song of freedom.
The Iranian artist Mahsa Vahdat and the Norwegian producer and poet Erik Hillestad met each other through the project Lullabies from the Axis of Evil in 2003. Their cooperation in the many projects led to a meeting between Erik and the Iranian poet and painter Mohammad Ebrahim Jafari. Together with Mahsa the two made a poetic workshop of dialogue during one week in Venice in Southern France in December 2008. This exchanging of ideas became texts for love duets, and the words were given music by Mahsa Vahdat, the Norwegian composers Sigvart Dagsland, Knut Reiersrud and Jarle Bernhoft through the sping of 2009. The recordings featuring vocals from Mahsa and blues legend Mighty Sam McClain happened in Norway, USA, and Iran from April through July 2009.

  One More Bridge to Cross

This is a marvelous album that reminds you of classic soul, ala Al Green and the Memphis Stax sound, without sounding retro or dated. McClain has a commanding voice, writes great songs, and can assemble a fine band. "Mighty" is right.
