Mohan's Veena

Search: Raga
by: Vishwa Mohan Bhatt

Release Date September 15, 2003
I have only heard one track from this album, so let's be honest about that for a start.I heard this on BBC Radio Three's Late Junction; for the uninitiated, a 'must hear' programme about World Music. When it first started,I thought, Oh yeah, more Indian sitars. But, I have to be completely honest, it took me away,totally.It makes most Western guitar music sound amateur, to say the least. This has feeling, it has soul,and it really gives you a new place to go. And as far as I am concerned, that is what music is really all about.

Days Have Gone By

Search: Raga
by: John Fahey

Release Date September 03, 2001
Released in America in the same year as Sgt Pepper, and finally - finally! - released in the UK, the last of the great Takoma albums by Fahey to make it on to cd, and of course it's worth the wait. here's the dancing, intoxicating Impressions of Susan. Here's maybe his greatest composition The Portland Cement Factory at Monolith, California - steely, menacing, like a train that won't stop. Here's the stunning meditation My Shepherd will Supply My Needs - even people who don't like Fahey like this one, all 8 minutes. The first Raga is splendid, the second is a sound collage experiment which is...uh, experimental. It's a great album by Fahey in his prime (aged 28).
