True that ARR did not have much share in this CD but this is an attractive and interesting CD for collectors for reasons.. 1. Recorded when ARR was Dilip 2. Classical Music Album 3. Along with Stalwarts Zakir Hussain and Vaidhyanathan.

I just had a hunch (but was not sure) that this Dileep could be Dileep KUmar who became A.R.Rahman and people were talking about the score of Bombay. it was just a fleeting thought and i didnt bother about it much. Later, my hunch proved to be right. > > Coming to the album, ARR fans need not expect much Rahman-ism out of this album. The album showcases the talents of Late Kunnakkudi Vaidyanathan and Ustad Zakir Hussain primarily and the music arrangement capabilities of Jeyasekhar, who arranged and conducted the music. It is a brilliant album for sure. But to be frank, contribution from Rahman is very minimal and limited to just 1-2 tracks(i think maximum usage of keyboards was only in 'Evolution' track). Thats because most of the tracks are pure classical and not fusion. The fusion, in some Indian classical tracks, is non-electronic and involves string orchestra playing tunes in western classical style. > > Bottomline: Buy it if you like Indian Classical Music, Instrumental Music, Carnatic Violin-Tabla stuff.
