Thanks Pradeepji and Questji for the articles on the great singer. At his time, he could have easily came out to Mumbai as an MD or an singer, but he preferred to stay back at his motherland, brought all the folk music of tribes and non-tribes of Assam to the national scenerio. Probably the greatest mistake he did was that he stood as a candidate of BJP in the last loksabha election, without realising that people donot want to see him as a politician in Delhi, but a man of their own. He is much more bigger than any politician in Assam, he can do much more with his voice than begging in front of the kings and queens of Delhi.

Thanks Pradip 😊

Bhupen Hazarika - only last of few good men of music industry - who effortlessly floats between 'Ganasangeet' to movie music - From "O ganga..." to 'Dil Hoom Hoom.." via "Sagar Sangame..." (it is one of my fav - although sounded little funny on Uttam Kumar's lip 😛) - the man stands Apart. I wish Hindi music got more out of him.

He came back from the gates of heaven recently - wish him a long healthy life!
