Guys - go ahead list your preference - I've heard/read/know: 1. Pure un-adultered hindustani classical 2. Pure un-adultered carnatic classical 3. Pure un-adultered western classical 4. Hard Rock 5. Metal 6. Symphony [my personal fav - and that too Indian style!] 8. Innovate the use of musical instruments - for e.g. the way Ustad Zakhir Hussain is capable of creating melody sounds (similar to voilin or flute) on the tabla. 9. Underground genre [not sure if I got this right] 10. Still love to get him explore and do a pure Indian folk album 11. Raw Afro music [Gumboots style] 12. An album only with harmonies [like many I already consider him the guru of harmony] Anything else.....guys? Please add.. maybe he'll read this.... ciao / Gopal Add more friends to your messenger and enjoy! Invite them now. Check out the all-new Messenger 9.0! Go to http://in.messenger.yahoo.com/
