[arr] Re: Colours CD

2009-02-16 Thread arr_raghu
I got it delivered in USA itself.
I am guessing that the CD is available in India,
check some popular music stores..
The CD is primarily of Zakir Hussain and Vaidhyanathan.
In the credits, it has -Keyboards-Dilip.
Anyway, I wanted to get it for the Maestros 
Zakir Hussain and Vaidhyanathan too..

 Is Colors a CD by Rahman?  Why is this topic brought up?
 Just curious.

  I have got Colours CD from nehaflix.com for $14

  Interestingly, The CD says - 
 
  
 
  Made in India, Packed 07/2008 , Price Rs. 150 only.
 
  
 
  Looks like it is a rerelease and must be available in India easily.
 
  
 
  Bottom line is that- cheaper or expensive, Colours CDs 
 
  
 
  are available in the market.

2009-02-16 Thread arr_raghu
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 first heard this album in 1995. The album was released much earlier.
 The album had credits to musicians and keyboards was credited to
Dileep. 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. If you are strictly looking for
ARR stuff, forget it.

I own a cassette of Colors. I had no clue until I read about the Dilip on
this album being ARR until quite recently :-). Thats the magic about this
group. Each day you get to know new stuff :-)
I have been a big fusion fan (indian classical/western stuff) and thats how
this cassette found its way into my collection. Its indeed a great album to
have ...if u like fusion music and even more if u like KV and Zakir
