This singer-songwriter has been known and loved by the music world since the late 60's, when she fronted the rock band Joy of Cooking with Toni Brown -- the 2 of them went on to form the duo The Joy. Since then, she's gained a reputation as a great producer, teacher, and in '92 her recording life took a new direction, when she released the cassette Affirhythms: rhythmic affirmation chantsongs. This 2000 CD continues with the theme. These infectious, percussive, positive chants and messages of compassion and strength, harmony and joy, relax your mind and inspire your spirit, as they go bone-deep. Includes Woman Now Know, Moonflow, Surrounded By the Light, and even a few delightful instrumentals like Cuppa Chi. With the improvization of jazz, the intonation and expression of blues, the textures and tones of world musics, and the heart of a healer, Terry makes music that will open the listener to the Joy of Living. Highly recommended!
