Have you heard Nina Simone's version of "Suzanne"? It is incredible! Another excellent Leonard Cohen cover is "Hallelujah" by John Cale.

Thank you, particleman!!
Listening to a relatively newer and lesser kown but very talented protege of the Kirana Gharana, Kaivalyakumar Gurav rendering one of my favourite raaga, Yaman.
This particular rendering reflects the respect Kaivalyaji has for the rhythm and lyrics, as apposed to typically slow paced and aalapi dominant contemparary classical music scenario. At the same time all the tempo and rhythm in play does not do any disrespect to the tranquility of the "yaman",

I have not heard either. Let me see where can I find the songs.
By the way, today on my drive to work, I set up a really crazy mix on my ipod playlist. Abba, Bruce Springsteen, Alan Parsons Project, Jaco Pastorius, Thelonius Monk, Big Bill Broonzy and Mark Knopfler.
Had a good listen. The traffic never got to me, I was so engrossed in listening.

Suhas, Suhas, Suhas! I scrolled and I scrolled but I never reached the end of your list. Do you have all of them in your collection?! I really envy you.
I have only selected albums of Duke Ellington, John Coltrane, Louis Armstrong, Keith Jarrett, Miles Davis and Stephane Grappelli, from your list. Still got a long way to go. To make matters worse, some of those recordings are on cassette. And the tapes are getting old.
Anyway, enjoy your jazz. I shall get hold of Standards. Lets see.

Nice collection Suhas!
How about harp: Tadao Hayashi?

Thanks for the good words. I have some 70% artists from the list. It is quite possible when one accumaltes some 200 Albums in one single genre 'Jazz' .
Thanks Xela for reminding me of Tadao Hayashi. I don't have any of his albums but I remember I heard one track at Mahendra's shop , If I recollect corretly it was a recording with Jim Brickman on Piano.
I also forgot to mention Yo Yo Ma , he is one the finest Cello player this world has ever produced. I have couple of his albums. Get one for yourself , not only for music enjoyment but to test your system too.

Hey! I was listening to Riding with the king yesterday. Nice jugalbandi. Which reminds me of Chet Atkins and Mark Knopfler's Neck and Neck. Another great effort.
And Suhas, 200 jazz albums means you have quite an amazing collection. That is inspiring. Quite a bit of my music is still on cassettes. I am finding replacements on CD, little by little, but I still have a long way to go to get to the 200 mark.
