Hi Parik! Please look for Ustad Bahadur Khan's recordings which were released from leading Indian record labels as HMV, Atlantis Music, and also from EMI. Understand? Also, please download the Bahadur Khan photo in this article (which is actually a cover of a LP record). You will find there the symbol of EMI. And don't say that "nobody in AACM knows who this guy is." Go to Ali Akbar Khan directly and ask him. Don't ask politicians whose works are to project one by suppressing another. Get the news from the horse's mouth. Also, let me tell you that the Sarode that Ali Akbar Khan plays was made by Bahadur Khan's father. Go and ask Ali Akbar Khan directly. OK? And personally let me tell you that "this guy" (whom many in Bengal consider a legend), very much existed. And not only that, he was a pillar of the Maihar Gharana if four others were Ali Akbar, Ravi Shankar, Annapurna, and Nikhil. You may go and ask it to Annapurna Devi too.

Ali Akbar Khan is indeed great. But he is not the only jewel of his family. If anyone projects AAK as the only legend of his family, then he/she is a foolish. Have you heard of Annapurna Devi (Ali Akbar's sister, and Ravi Shankar's first wife)? She is no less than Ali Akbar as a musical genius. Just because Annapurna did not perform publicly does not mean that one should ignore her. Also, a great number of their family relatives considered remaining in Bangladesh after India's partition of 1947. These people (Ustad Mobarak Hossain Khan, Ustad Abed Hossain Khan, Ustad Yaar Rasul Khan, Ustad Shahdat Hossain Khan) do not go abroad frequently to earn huge bucks does not mean that they are "trash". Everyone of them are the recipients of Bangladesh Government's highest civilian honours for their contributions to music, some of them have directed Bangladesh National Cultural Organisation (Bangladesh Shilpokala Academy) and Bangladesh Radio. Their contributions to music must be honoured. One who can not honour them is only a foolish himself/herself.

How people at AACM are supposed to know about them? Have anyone there (except Ali Akbar Khan himself) ever visited their traditional home at Bangladesh.

Mr Parik, please be a responsible man. I am not here to do lobbying for anyone. And I hope you are impartial too. Go visit Bangladsh once. Listen to their music. And only then give a statement. I look forward to hearing that statement from you.

LET TRUTH PREVAIL

ALSO, IF YOU DARE TO FACE THE TRUTH, GIVE ME YOUR ADDRESS, I WILL SEND YOU USTAD BAHADUR KHAN'S RECORDINGS. I AM SURE IT WILL TAKE YOU TIME TO UNDERSTAND WHO IS "THIS GUY" PLAYING? IS IT AAK? OR BAHADUR KHAN? BAHADUR KHAN PLAYED LIKE THAT. BAHADUR KHAN ALSO VISITED ALI AKBAR COLLEGE OF MUSIC (AACM) IN THE 1960S AND RECORDED SOME MUSIC THERE YOU KNOW. IF THOSE MUSIC ARE NO MORE THERE, THEN THOSE HAVE BEEN DELIBERATELY REMOVED. ANYWAY, YOU WILL STILL FIND BAHADUR KHAN'S NAME IN THE PREVIOUS FACULTY LIST AT AACM. GO FIND IT. PREVIOUSLY THE COLLEGE STORE AT AACM USED TO SELL BAHADUR KHAN'S RECORDINGS. I MYSELF HAVE FOUND THAT. BUT NOWADAYS THEY DON'T DO THAT. WHY? YOU KNOW THE REASON? I AM HUMBLE (BUT INTELLIGENT) ENOUGH TO SAY THAT I DON'T KNOW.
