Live on Earth...For a Limited Time Only [Live]

Amazon.com
Like his jazz counterpart Jai Uttal, Krishna Das is a U.S. native whose life was changed forever by the discovery of the Hindu religion. Yet unlike Uttal, who has explored the realms of world and jazz music and collaboration, Das has focused his energies toward the art of Indian classical chant exclusively. The result is a long career of spreading the love and spirituality of the Hindustani tradition while gleaning a large following that's included the likes of Sting and Madonna. But this isn't the reason to respect Das, rather his investment in using chant to heal, find the grace of God, and purify the soul. Though Das's voice falls somewhat flat on this two-CD album, he's accompanied by a wonderful gaggle of percussionists, whose layered cadences create a tapestry as rich in color and detail as an Indian ragamala itself. The accompanying choir of some 20 chanters is the other highlight, offering a cold salve to Das's harsh, monotonous tone. But after all, the point of chant is to invoke God, not please the ear, and if this is your goal, Live on Earth well satisfies. --Karen K. Hugg

A Must Buy!.......2007-07-02

I first heard Krishna Das on a You Tube video. Luckily someone had left a message as to who was singing. Krishna Das was a disciple of Indian holy man Neem Karoli Baba in the early 70's. He brought back to America a love of Hindu devotional songs, or kirtans. The music on this two CD set should be in everyone's collection. Krishnas Das sings in a lower register with some backing by a chorus of mostly female voices. Many of the songs repeat the lyrics over and over, which gives them the feeling of chanting a mantra. Hanuman Chaleesa on the first CD is worth the price of admission alone. Run out and get this music.

Hindoo Hootenanny!.......2006-02-05

I bought this recording years ago as a result of a positive review in the New York Times. But that was a very busy period in my life and I only listened to it once or twice and didn't really pay much attention. But yesterday I found this among a mountain of unsorted CDs and put it on. I love this whole 2-CD album! There's something very infectious and uplifting about it. Analyzing it, the melodies are not all that different from the folk music of the 50s and early 60s, but the words are in Sanskrit (I assume) and the musical instruments are Southeast Asian. The result is a good-spirited concert reminiscent of the old hootenannies. This is Peace and Love time. Or Be-In/Love-In time. I've been playing this 2-CD album solidly for the past two days. It has put me in a good mood. The lyrics are translated in the accompanying booklet, but the type is so small that I find it difficult to read. But no matter, these are religious songs, sung prayers and hymns of praise.

In general I don't care for background music, but I think this works very well in that capacity just as mood music. I can't promise that it will affect everyone the way it has affected me, but I've found it very uplifting. How can I not give it five stars?

Ramine of all times.......2005-08-11

This CD is definitely a stress buster. One feels in control after listening to his CD's and feel they can fight the world. It induces self-satisfaction, contentment and happiness.

The best of Krishna.......2004-02-10

All of Krishna Das' music should be standard equipment on any new vehicle in this day and age, with over population and crazy drivers, air bags being just underneath that. For if these mantras were playing in your stereo there may be no need for the later.
In all seriousness, Krishna Das will bring your spirit to a new level and erase your stress. This coming from someone who hadn't spent much time in the spiritual realm...until now! Get any of his CD's and he may unlock a part of you, you never knew existed.

KD's Best Work Yet.......2003-12-24

I have been a devotional singer for many years and have most everything that is available. I have all of KD's other releases and "Live on Earth" is his best work yet and I don't normally like live performances. With the exception of a few live "mistakes" that would normally be edit out, you wouldn't know this was a live CD.

LOE has both a perfectly balanced devtional and energetic feel to it which is the sign of a good kirtan/bhajan. Even my Indian devotional singing friends who are usually very picky when it comes to devotional music, all love "Live on Earth". Most all of KD's good tracks from his other releases are on LOE so with this you have his best. If you have only one KD CD, this is the one.
