Reviews"Otis Taylor and a host of notable contributors present a collection of largely blues-flavored, banjo-backed songs intended to entertain...", 4 stars out of 5 -- "Multi-instrumental bluesman Taylor continues to enthrall with roots music allied to an exploration of America's past race problems and social injustices., "Taylor and his colleagues have again served up a living history lesson -- musical, cultural, political -- that's bound to expand the thinking of a lot of listeners.", "'Hey Joe' of Hendrix/Byrds renown, is pierced by Taylor's nasty guitar licks, and his 'Absinthe' takes an ethereal turn via Hart's lap steel.", 5 stars out of 5 -- "There may not be a better roots album released this year or decade than RECAPTURING THE BANJO.", 4 stars out of 5 -- "A fine celebration of the instruments roots in Africa and its assimilation into the fabric of American music."
