The record label says:
In Pakistan, more specifically in Lahore (formerly one of the historic capitals of the vast Mogul Empire) the tradition of master musicians still persists. Known as Ustad, they are the descendants of historic families and the torchbearers of Hindustani classic music. Singers, sitar, sarangi or tabla players, they are all the keepers of these centuries-old ragas, whose essence they preserve with the utmost rigor and concern for purity. Their task is made easier by the relative isolation of Pakistan from the tourist circuit, which has thus left it untouched for the most part by certain modern influences from the West. One of the finest artists in Pakistani music is the great mastersinger, Ustad Gulam Hassan Shagan.

Please note!
Most CDs have been
imported from Europe or Asia.
They are not all
shrink-wrapped, and I am not
going to con you by wrapping them
here just to make you think they
have been sterilized in America.
We guarantee that the CDs and the
contents are all brand new and in
perfect condition. Whenever I
can, I use recycled shipping
materials. They may not look as
pretty on the outside, but they save
money and keep the trash dumps a
little bit emptier.
