Multisyllabic musical mastery permeates this career retrospective Zakir Hussain mix from NTS, showcasing one of the most important and influential musicians of the past century whose diverse collaborations spanned a multitude of styles and genres while maintaining links to the rich musical traditions of the Indian subcontinent and beyond.
For fans, musicians and collectors, be sure not to overlook the Tabla Beat Science 2-DVD set released in 2003 by Palm Pictures entitled "Talamanam Sound Clash: Further Adventures in Hypercussion" with Karsh Kale, Ustad Sultan Khan, Bill Laswell and "Gigi" Shibabaw joining Hussain on stage for a fiery and uplifting live set recorded at the Fillmore in San Francisco in June 2002 (presented in both Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1 Surround), along with a generous selection of bonus material. The quality of the performances, sound and video are all excellent, making this essential viewing for the inititated as much as new musical explorers.
