Tangent Records - LP
UK, 1970
Indian Classical / Field Recording / Ethnomusicology

Beautiful early-1960's recordings of Muslim music from North-West India by British scholar John Levy. Comes with liner notes.

Devotional music played in the open by formations of different sizes; from an Indian bagpipes solo to Popular Naubat Shahnā'ī (love songs) played by medium sized ensembles. Most pieces relies on complexe rhythms and melodies, rather than on the gradual developments widely associated with Indian indoor music. Check the Popular Naubat Shahnā'ī  "Jabbalpur". Splendid mono recordings, and great sounding vinyl. (VG+/ VG+)
