Not quite intimidated, more like disgused. AMs copycat n lackluster talent are a joke. NS have one style. I guess their types of tunes is personal preference. AM, NS are no comparison for ARR. If must compare, use MDs of commensurate skill.. Nusrat F A K, naushad, etc etc. > Why talk just about chor chor which was still a good album > and is known to people? i used taal/chor chor to convey the point tht ARR cant pelase everyone. Because songs of taal/chor chor are so different, some of those that adored chor chor felt taal fading away quickly. Sure we can focus on its success too.. just answering your question "which crowd was displeased with taal" I think we've explored this thread to a reasonable depth, dont you? Lets enjoy what he has given us thus far, and hope for the next (your preference)++ but my feeling is that its going to be ARR++ -S --- In [email protected], V S Rawat <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On 7/24/05 10:18 PM India Time, _ST_ wrote: > > > Rawat, why are you assuming that it was the first time I heard it? > > I've been hearing most of mughal-e-azam songs since I was little. > > Oh.
