Format:Audio CD
The Mishra Piloo is subliminal and this one track more than justifies the whole album.. a veritable gem..with virtuoso tabla of Chatur Lal recorded in 1965 when Shankar was in his prime...this music is imbued with divinity..a kind of mantra..a dialogue with God...elevates you to Nirvana ..leads you to Valhalla...tabla solo in the middle ( 5:51 to 8:44) by Chatur Lal is simply mesmerizing! And 8:44 to 10-45 is probably one of the best and perfect sitar/tabla dialogues of all time! Don't miss 5:22 to 6:35 sitar engages in a dialogue with tabla then fades gracefully to make way for tabla solo....if there ever was a magical sitar (as well as music) tour this is it....Ravi Shankar and Chatur Lal transport you to a world where music is redefined, transforming every note into a source of wonderment...
And Raga Charu Keshi has that meandering melancholia that lingers on and on...

One of his finest recordings! 3 Mar 2006
By Clifford Teapes - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
The recent release of this recording on CD was greatly anticipated and is highly appreciated. I would suggest that this CD be the first place to start if you are interested in discovering (or rediscovering) the virtuoso "picking" of Ravi Shankar.

A must have 5 April 2004
By Shree - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
I wish I could have all of the "REMASTERED CDs" that have been released now and perhaps one day I will. But this was the first one I got which started off my Ravi Shankar collection. This is an excellent CD because it gives you five completely different raags including a "dhun" and a "thumri" style. What is great about these old recordings is that Panditji has condensed every raag in a shorter version of a fully blown concert which is usually about an hour long.
Listening to Puriya Dhanashri one is automatically taken to an evening setting. My favourite in this CD is the raag "Charu Keshi" I haven't experienced such a beautiful introduction to a raag, there is so much in the first five or six seconds of this piece that I could hear just that again and again.
If you hear any poor digital remastering, you are not paying attention.

if you like indian music you must have this album. All sounds (citar and anothers) are amaizing and those lead you to a great ficticious trip to Indian... excellent album!
