Reviews :
"Backed by the unknown (at the time, anyway) Pointer Sisters, Taj reinvents Robert Johnson’s ‘Sweet Home Chicago’ and makes it his own. The gospel-laden backup vocals are exultant. The Pointers resonate like soulful Andrews Sisters with their three-part harmonies on ‘Texas Woman Blues.’ Robbie Gerson, audiophile auditions
"...I’m convinced that someone at ORG knows how to pick them. As a 45rpm record with four sides instead of two, Recycling contains inspired performances matched with impressive sonics on every side. The live cuts do a fine job of capturing the timbre of the instruments and the energy of a concert, especially when Taj rips into a National steel-bodied guitar solo on ‘Bound to Love Me Some’ and tears into the banjo on ‘Ricochet’ Like all the studio cuts, the classic ‘Cakewalk into Town’ is improved, with a crisp and remarkably realistic sound. Both songs with the Pointer Sisters are a delight, and the upright bass on ‘Texas Woman Blues’ startlingly clear and sharp. At times I wish ‘Gitano Negro’ had higher recording levels, but again the timbre of the steel-bodied guitar comes through nicely. " Jeff Wilson, The Absolute Sound
"The title Recycling the Blues & Other Related Stuff certainly sums up the album quite well -- that's exactly what Taj Mahal has been doing for several years by this point. The first side features laidback in-the-studio work with some nice gospel-inflected back-up from the Pointer Sisters. The second (and preferable) side offers a good look at Mahal's stage show.” AllMusic review by Rovi Staff
