Rehman launches Kailash Kher's debut album

At a jampacked music launch at the Raheja Classique club in Mumbai on
Tuesday night, music director A R Rahman released the debut album of
brilliant singer Kailash Kher. Entitled Kailasa, the album is
actually also named after the band that Kher has formed in
partnership with musician-composers Naresh and Paresh Kamath, both
gifted guitarists and good backup singers.

Rehman, who had a busy night ahead for a film recording, was
nevertheless graciously present at the release for half an hour, and
did the honors.

Kher thanked "Bhagwan ke puttra (Son of God) Allah Rakkha Rehman"
profusely for having graced the occasion, and Rehman, brief and pithy
as usual, reminisced, "I am glad to be here for Kailash's album
launch. I remember how I first heard of him. I had asked Mehboob, our
lyricist, for a new voice that is earthy and strong, and he said, I
have just the person for you. That voice can only be that of
Kailash!' And he sent Kailash to meet me. The moment I heard him, I
knew that here was a voice that was so wonderful, and which had its
own unique space.... I want to say that Kailash Kher's voice has
something that had been lacking a lot -- it had pure soul!  Allah Ke
Bande is one of my all time favorite songs," the genius composer said.

Singer Alka Yagnik too came in specially to congratulate Kailash. "I
wanted to come over and congratulate you on your first album. I hope
that it is extremely successful! God Bless!" she said to Kher. Later,
she too, along with Rahman and Kailash, was mobbed by still
photographers.

The band Kailasa performed four songs live, with Kher dedicating the
first, Teri Diwani, to Rehman, the audience, and to those who support
the fight against piracy.

Sony BMG India MD Sridhar said, "It is indeed a great day for us. In
the past too, we have been responsible for launching some great
talent, and today, we are proud to be associated with the debut album
of Kailash Kher. Over the time we've spent working on this album
together, I have not just been exposed to a wonderful talent, but
also made a wonderful friend (in Kailash)."

The audience loved the live peformance, and going by audience
reaction, Kailasa is bound to be a hit.
