So the Steve Tibbets is a disc i can really sink my musical teeth into.

He gets the wailing, distortion guitar to mesh perfectly with the strong world music undercurrents. A most excellent musical hybrid. Works for me quite brilliantly. The straight acoustic pieces are also great, and the use of vocals is effective as well.
