Guys of BITS'78

I have a fantastic declaration to make. I have released an album of 10 song mixed from Indian classical of "Bhatkhande" Gharana to Jazz which has been formally been released by Tarun Gogoi, Chief Minister of Assam in presence of Anupam Kher in Guwahati. The albgum is already sold over 100 copies within 2 days while I am writing this mail. Bajju can add it to achievenment list if rest of the Junta agrees.

Love

B

Bijit boss,

This is a great news.

How do those of us, who are on the other side of Pacific Ocean from where
you are, have an access to your latest creation? Let us know.

Congratulations to you!

Dear B,
Congrats. From Indian classical to Jazz that should be intersting. BTW
what is the title of the album?

-Shyamal
fantastic stuff dude....sure would like to hear it so how does one get hold
of a copy...."vivek sharan"
Dear Bijit,
kidos man, congrats and keep up the good work. It is not easy to follow and
above all mix bhatkhande gharana. It is as difficult to absorb the Gwalior
Gharana , from where my son did his classical training.

Mixing Bhatkhande with Jazz must have been an altogether different experience
by itself. Congrats once again. Is it available in the market, what is the name
of the CD publisher and distributor to get it in INdore. Whom can we write to ,
to know who has got this collection in Indore. ??

cheets,
dwads indore.
