In this modern era, it is very tough to like all
kinds of music; most would prefer music of one kind like Rap or maybe
'Bhangra'. I am fortunate to have
inculcated an interest in all kinds of music.
My initiation into Rock came when my brother took me
to a concert of 'Deep Purple' when they had come to Mumbai. Before the
event, I used to listen to their tapes, so that when people around me
danced around, I should not be looked upon as a fool. This was the
beginning of my decent interest in Rock. The list now includes Guns
n'Roses and Metallica.
Check out the links below :(I will be adding many more links and may also
put up my favourite songs for download)
Among all the Indian singers, past and present, I
like Manna Dey the best. This simple and unassuming man (he never
used to get into any controversy) is a treat to listen to especially those
songs which have a strong classical touch. Most would prefer Mohm. Rafi,
another great singer, but Manna Dey remains my favourite. What most people
would not know is that he also used to sing Bengali songs, which were also
a big hit.

Now comes my other facet. I also listem to classical
music, mostly Indian classical music and fusion music. Among them, I
prefer the old and melodious Indian classics.
A few of my favourites (will need Real Player to listen to it):
