  7. @gd - I just discovered your blog. You have posted a collection of some of the most wonderful Hindustani Classical Music. Your tastes are similar to mine and I am delighted to find some out of print and very rare recordings of some of my favorite musicians. Thank you so much for this.

    I notice you have not posted anything since 2012. Do you have any plans to continue the blog? I hope so.
    All the best to you.....
