Hi all!

Thought I'd forward this link to all Amanat Ali/Fateh Ali fans. It's a
1970 private mehfil recording ---- http://qaul.blogspot.com/2008/06/mehfil-with-amanat-ali-fateh-ali.html.

Scroll down for the playlist. It has two tracks: Raag Saakh and Raag
Bageshwari.

Enjoy the vibrant compositions by the two maestros.

Regards.
