Soul Stirring.......2005-09-21

I recently purchased this volume of original works of Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, and my expectations were exceeded. I have always enjoyed Nusrat's soulful voice, it stirs the divinity within. I do not understand Urdhu, however his music seems to transcend the boundaries of mere language. He is surely missed and I am looking forward to purchasing the second volume to this collection of original work!

A must for Sufi music lovers: Voice from heaven.......2005-03-10

Khan was the most popular singers in the Indian subcontinent. He predominantly sang qawwali, the music of devotional Sufism in a unique style that appealed to followers of sufism and music lovers all over the world. Not many people know that he had announced plans to record an experimental album with Luciano Pavarotti. Besides, he was also invited to perform with Madonna, but health problems waylaid all plans.

This collection of recordings from 1978-1982 is one of his best work. I have always enjoyed his original recordings more than his remixed music and therefore to me its an ultimate pleasure to have this set in my collection. This is the original music Nusrat always enojoyed singing more than any of his remixed or westernized versions. It is the music coming from the soul of the person during the time he was still unknown to the most of the world.

It is a relentless endless joy peaking into tears, resting into calmness; a simmering beauty.If you let yourself listen with the whole of yourself, you will have the pure feeling of flight while firmly rooted to the ground. You dont need to understand Urdu and can still hook into the story that he weaves with this wordless voice. This is the sensational character of Qawwali,the music of Sufis and voice from heaven.
