Clara (St. Kitts Woman)

Artist: Taj Mahal

Album: Mo’ Roots (1974)

Why Its Great: This song (and its parent album) are beautifully atmospheric, transporting the listener to hazy remembered twilight.  

Best Listened To: On a muggy summer night with the whine of mosquitoes in a screen door to add harmony.

Key Lyric: She would come lifting/ With her voice to the house
