[😃 .

But I miss jatinji the most....vociferous, knowledgable, exceptional singer...i wonder why he didn't sing some of his compositions himself..except Roothke Humse Kahin, which I consider one of their very best. The way he used to so sincerely put across a point...with that pen dangling and shaking his hand...a true statesman. Saraswati Maa Ki Kasam... 😉

So true, no one can match Jatinji in musical intelligence, look how he groomed Sharib, Swananda & even Sanchali into wonderful singers...

Talking about Rabindrasangeet....many songs of Parineeta had a distinct Rabindrageet touch to them. Especially Piyu Bole and Soona Man Ka Aangan. The part 'Phool phool bhanwara dole...' is the Hindi translation of 'Phole Phole Bhramar...', written and composed by Tagore. But it was credited to him...through dialogues in the movie.

Yes but they are not perfect copies if you have heard the original songs...esp. antara is quite diff.

Havent a clue! I know the song has a lot of komal swaras..including Rishabh komal, which makes it sound more like a carnatic raaga...probably one of those raagas that has both a carnatic and hindustani music identity. I'm sure someone on this forum would know.

That's so heartening to know, Niraj ji .... maybe someday in future we will discuss music over a cup of coffee .....

Regarding Pink floyd, well well what to say .... psychedelic geniuses ..... I love "Comfortably Numb" (I'm one always anyway) ... simply their brilliant best if I ignore their guitar solos on "shine on you crazy diamond" ....
