Album Review: Kailasã (Kailash Kher)

Confession time: I tried & tried again to write a review for the album, but I'm simply pathetic at this. Thanks to Google, I found one thoroughly professional review of this delightful album. I don't have much to add to that, so read the review & get the songs! You can enjoy the songs online, here.

My favorite song from the album (mind you, all the songs are very good) -

Kaise Main Kahoon: A young girl’s in love for the first time, and is caught up in a storm of elation and confusion! Elated because she’s in love, and confused coz she just doesn’t know how to express herself, how to yell out to the world she’s in love. How on earth would you have thought an earthy, rasping voiced singer like Kher with his co music composers Paresh and Naresh have created a song to embody all this and more? But that’s just what Kher’s simple lyrics, his singing and the excellent composition does, with Kaise Main Kahoon Ki Mujhe Ishq Hua Hai. This one’s a lilting, frisky peppy song that rides on the soft tabla-dholak beats of Yusuf Mohammad and excellent violin and viola work by Jitendra Thakur, this very lovely song with a folksy, Rajsthani-Punjabi feel is definitely listenable.
