http://ghostcapital.blogspot.com/2012/08/ustad-vilayat-khan-supreme-genius-of.html "Born at Gouripur (now in East Pakistan [Bangladesh] )in 1924 in a family with a great musical tradition, Vilayat Khan is sixth in an unbroken line of maestros going back to the Mughal period. His father, the late Ustad Inayat Khan, still remembered as one of the greatest sitarists of all time, initiated young Vilayat in the art of Sitar playting, though this guidance was lost to Vilayat at the early age of thirteen due to the death of his father. Dedication and discipline, however, carried him through and to such heights that at a relatively young age his virtuosity was recognized not only in India but abroad also. He has played to appreciative audiences in UK, Europe, USSR, East Africa and Afghanistan. Just as Sartre's rejection of the Nobel Prize created a storm in European intellectual circles, Vilayat Khan's polite but firm refusal of a Sangeet Natak Akademi award created a sensation among musical circles in India three years ago."

http://ghostcapital.org/danses-de-roumanie/ A lovely survey of Romanian popular dances on 7″ record. 33rpms. To my ears, these melodies posses a rare & exquisite musical virtue; evoking a heady aura of buoyant celebration and profound melancholy, both at once. Compelling stuff. Enjoy.

http://ghostcapital.org/an-enchanting-hour-with-lalgudi-g-jayaraman-ustad-amjad-ali-khan/ An Enchanting Hour With...South Meets North. An incomparable 1983 meeting of Lalgudi G. Jayaraman (RIP *April 22nd, 2013) and Ustad Amjad Ali Khan, each performing here as maestro-ambassadors for their distinctive regional traditions; Carnatic and Northern, respectively. Rest assured, it’s an astounding synthesis. Indian classical magic. This is basically an Enchanting Hour-long hypnotherapy, on the house. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

http://ghostcapital.org/steel-drum-sonata-moonlight/ Single Shot: Here's an eerily sparse steel drum rendition of good old Ludwig Van's immortal "Moonlight Sonata." Titled here simply as "Interlude", it's a strange and somber anomaly in a typically festive genre not known for evocations of reflective melancholy. To be honest, I've been trucking around this dusty, otherwise unremarkable thrift-scrounged Barbados Steel Drums LP for well over a decade, simply unable to toss it out due to the oddball beauty of this one track. Its a crackly old thing by now, but maybe better that way...
