Wanted to post this for a change, Not much I have to say about it! I t is an early recording with The Sabri's, I find this one very interesting as it seems rather "filmi" and very produced and polished according to its time. Religious music definitely has a big commercial value. Here they are getting popular with the Indian market, or is it just me? Any thoughts on differences with later recordings. I find the "element" of serious strong devotion less pronounced anyhow. More trying to be entertaining in approach than satisfying any religious fervor... Hmm...
Not "wooly" enough for my tastes but pretty good music.
