In Times Like These....!!!

Music is the essential link between nations, families and friends. Music is what has been keeping us from animality and demonization. Expressing the needs of the soul, music elevates us to the realms of Spirit. Sharing music, even just records, is a natural act of Unification.

This blog is fed with my all time favorites. The cream of the cream in my own recipe. Music from all ages and horizons that stirs my soul and lightens my life. I also share with U the most interesting topics for me, in words and pictures...Check out the pages below... for a change.

This blog is my way to share with U. So that U may njoy as much as I do. When U are done surfing/downloading and are having a gr8t time discovering the marvelous soundz, it is Ur turn to share: Return and post happy comments to complete the circle... and ensure that I will stay motivated up here!

Aloha

Masterpiece... on Song For Everyone , illustrious performers such as Trilok Gurtu, Zakir Hussain & Jan Garbarek give hands to L.Shankar's violin's wonder.

smoothsoul (New Zealand) -

Whether this album is as good as I think it is or just touches me in some way, it's hard to know. You'll just have to get it and listen for yourself. I remember hearing it in the 1980s and couldn't find out which album it was; only now have I managed to get hold of a copy. A prototype of "world music," it's laceratingly beautiful and hypnotic. Shankar's string playing is supremely evocative, mystical whilst not being New Agey, and Jan Garbarek's lyrical sax is serene and haunting. The title track is a master work, and the whole album gets better the more you listen to it.
