Description
LP - RAGA JAZZ STYLE - Shankar Jaikishan (music), Rais Khan (sitar)
Stereo recording, The Gramaphone Company of India/EMI
"Jazz and Indian music: are they alike? The answer could be both Yes and No. Yes, because both of them employ the technique of improvisation. And No, because Jazz and Indian music are radically apart in content... This album is one such attempt at achieving a happy correlation of the ancient music of India with the modern jazz of the West... The ensemble includes both Indian and Western instruments. So are the rhythms employed. The purity of the ragas, however, remains undefiled."
Plus, bonus LP - GHAZALS, by Shabnam Bhupinder
Stereo recording, Music India
" 'As soft as the morning dew' aptly describes the ethereal voice of universal favorite, Bhupinder... Bhupinder sets in static motion the tender strings of his listeners' hearts, compelling them to join him in his emotional quest."
