The Bay Area World Music Mafia Strikes Again, August 2, 2001
This review is from: Longing (Audio CD)
Habib Khan, along with cohorts Ira Stein on piano, Hans Christian on cello, Matthew Monfort of Ancient Future on his treademark scalloped guitar, and former Pat Metheny drummer Danny Gottlieb, construct eleven modern ragas which showcase the vituosity of Habib Khan on sitar. If you like this one, check out another CD from the same geographic and musical area, "Blue Incantation" by Sanjay Mishra, featuring the last recorded performance of Jerry Garcia.

Absolutely Splendid, December 24, 2000

This review is from: Longing (Audio CD)
The emperor of Tabla, Swapanji, has outstandingly accompanied Ustad Habib Khan, in this exquisite CD. A 'must-have' for all students of tabla, to learn the art of classical accompaniment for light and short peices.

Upbeat Indian Roots with Khan's Sitar and other Instruments, March 17, 2009
This review is from: Longing (Audio CD)
Longing (2000) is a production by Ustad Habib Khan on sitar, along with Pandit Swapan Chaudhuri on tabla, and a host of special guest musicians. The instrumental rendering shows its Indian roots and upbeat influence by Khan who includes guests playing piano, saxaphone, santoor, cello, bass, and drums. Khan in his own way has produced a wonderful recording of upbeat fusion music. The mix of modern instruments with traditional Indian instruments creates a stunning soundscape -- great car music, general listening music, or background music.
