Brij Bushan Kabra In Memoriam



Brij Bushan Kabra who recently died, introduced the guitar into Hindustani music. A serious and profound musician, he kept clear of so-called "fusion",the bane of instrumental Indian music today. He did so unlike other guitar players in India and also, sadly, his disciple. He must have realized that making mediocre western music sooner of later drips into your whole musicianship. How can one separate the brain thinking you can both make great art and bad? This man kept his integrity. Here is his first LP record, made in 1967.
