    About this album

    Happy Just To Be Like I Am shows Taj Mahal expanding the blues into a wider American roots conversation. Released in 1971, the album blends country blues, Cajun inflections and electric drive into a style that is both historically grounded and freshly exploratory. Mahal’s assured vocals and multi-instrumental feel bring character to songs such as the title cut and traditional material like Oh Susanna, while the record’s loose, living-room feel reinforces its sense of communal music-making. It stands as one of his early 1970s statements, reflecting his gift for treating folk and blues traditions as connected, evolving forms rather than museum pieces.
