NUSRAT FATEH ALI KHAN & MICHAEL BROOK
NIGHT SONG
Real World Records 1996

http://www18.zippyshare.com/v/Aou8Tx2x/file.html

The great - and ridiculously prolific - Pakistani qawwali singer had already recorded half a
dozen albums for Real World when he delivered this peach in 1996. Effectively the sequel to
1990's classic Mustt Mustt, Nusrat is here reunited with the Canadian musician/producer
Michael Brook and once again the partnership tests the emotional boundaries of the human
voice. Timeless, state-less and, nearly two decades on, ageless. It wasn't made in Detroit
or Memphis, but this truly is soul music. -- Real World
I am writing a review of Night Music because I feel that Nusrat's music is very important to
rock and roll. This Pakistani singer, who sadly passed away a few years back, had the power
to touch the soul with his singing. Though I can't understand a word he said, Night Music's
feelings are well received. I like to think of Nusrat's music as mesmerizing and hypnotic as
well as emotionally raw. Michael Brook just enhances Nusrat's ideas, making this recording a
haunting, painfully sweet listen. This is a must have for any rock collector. Thank you to
Peter Gabriel for creating his RealWorld label in which we get to hear such fine musicians
from other countries of the world -- Jason Stein (Amazon)

While watching the movie Dead Man Walking I was stricken by an amazing song in the
soundtrack. As I closely watched the credits roll I saw that the song was performed by
Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan with (surprise!) Eddie Vedder. A few months later while driving late
one night a song popped up on the radio, ambient, slow, and mesmerizing. The only light
inside my car was from the dashboard display and the scene was set perfectly. I seemed to
float along the darkened road. When the DJ announced Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan and Michael
Brook I knew that I had found a CD that would enchant me forever.
The above reviewer says that Michael Brook just enhances Nusrat's ideas. But, as I'm led to
believe, qawwali is religious music. I can't help but picture nubile young European girls
dancing all night long in strobe lit rooms to the beat that Micheal Brook produces.
Oh well, to me it still is mind and soul expanding music. Enjoy your Sunday. -- JohnnyDiego

Thanks Gyro for more Archaeology - I think this series is a lot better than some of the so-so stuff that floats about the web.

BONUS 1 OF 2

GENE CLARK WITH THE GOSDIN BROTHERS '67 (BSCD2 Expanded Edition, Japan, 2014) @320

The first album that Gene Clark released after his departure from the Byrds followed very closely on the model of his earlier efforts on the Byrds' first two albums. His backing musicians included ex-bandmates Chris Hillman and Michael Clarke, as well as future Byrd Clarence White and Clark collaborator Doug Dillard, not to mention the Gosdin Brothers, whose harmonies resembled a rockier Everly Brothers and brought the sound very close to that of the Byrds. The album contains a number of fine pop-oriented tunes and stellar folk-rock/country-rock numbers (a year before the Byrds' Sweetheart of the Rodeo, which employed both White and Dillard) and established Clark as a major songwriter, rivaling his old band and often coming close to the fabness of the Beatles. Still, despite such solid songs and backing musicians, Gene Clark with the Gosdin Brothers failed to make much of an impact, perhaps due to its being released in the same week as the Byrds' Younger Than Yesterday, itself a tour de force that cemented their influence. However, in the realm of Clark's recorded output, this album stands as the one of the best, if not the best, example of how powerful a singer, writer, and bandleader he was. (Allmusic)

BONUS 2 OF 2

My Generation ’65 (2 CD Deluxe Edition 2002) @320

The Who's first album, mixed in stereo for the first time by original producer Shel Talmy, plus single sides. Disc two is a collector's dream, with more loads of first-time stereo-in fact, 28 out of the 30 tracks here are in stereo!-previously unreleased, full-length versions of The Good's Gone and I Don't Mind, an unspeakably rare, French EP-only alternate version of Anyway, Anyhow, Anywhere and more.

The roaring, raging quartet heard on Who's Next, Live at Leeds, and Quadrophenia is scarcely discernable on much of this, their first album. But the Mod-fueled, American R&B-inspired sense of ambitious pop that powers A Quick One, Sell Out, and even Tommy isn't so hard to find here. This reissue not only expands the original with a bonus-disc treasure trove of 17 outtakes and rarities (including the Pete Townshend-penned, previously unissued "Instant Party Mixture"), but has been remixed from the original 1964-'66 session tapes by producer Shel Talmy and released in true stereo for the first time. Anchored by early Who/Townshend anthems "My Generation" (also included in an instrumental version), "I Can't Explain," and "The Kids Are Alright," disc one's original LP set veers somewhat schizophrenically from Townshend's nascent power-guitar thrashing on the anthems and Roger Daltrey's ill-advised James Brown and Bo Diddley impressions on "Please, Please, Please" and "I'm a Man," respectively, to the surf-inspired John Entwistle-Keith Moon instrumental showcase, "The Ox." Not surprisingly, it's the Townshend originals (like "It's Not True," "Legal Matter," and the proto-psychedelic "Circles") that point to what the band would become in a few short years. The bonus material on disc two leans equally heavily on covers, but also contains its share of signposts to the future Who, including a rare, alternate version of "Anyhow, Anyway, Anywhere." Also included is a new booklet with many rare photos and a history of the album's recording by Andy Neill (coauthor of Anyway Anyhow Anywhere: The Complete Chronicle of the Who 1958-1978). --Jerry McCulley

Thanks for the kind words, kevinpat. By the way, my forehead rents out for billboard space too.

kevinpat said...

@JohnnyDiego Hahahahahaha. No, I was thinking more a distant planet. But it's what's inside the egg that counts. Right? And I like what comes out of yours. A music man after my own…ummm ears?? We can start with The Smiths and work from there. Because there is a light that never goes out. :))))

Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan ... he has made more than 100 albums. I have 4 including 3 I bought in Pakistan with religious sufi music. If anyone has an interest, I'll post them later this week.

JohnnyDiego, My forehead boes back to the tops of my ears, and I might be competitive if I rented it out too :D.
