There is something so epic about Ustad ji's presence especially when he plays Jori, so beautiful yet so powerful

The recital I am referring to is Tribute to the Late Pandit Kishan Maharaj - chakardar concert (19.07.08). Try pasting it in as for some reason it wont let me paste the URL

He's Middleweight. Anindo is Heavyweight. This guy messes up alot. Anindo is perfect. The pure pinnacle of Tabla.

@SuperFlashman123

This just shows that you don't know much about this man. I think it's very safe to assume he's up there with likes of Zakir Ji and Anindo Ji. Albeit, a different style-but hey, that's not a bad thing, now is it? In fact, I like his pure benares style of playing more than that of Anindo Chatterjee's.

To address your second point, I don't see him mess up much at all. Can you post the link or video which shows this? Thanks.

@Lemantech

Listen to the first recital. Real masters will know the timing is out at the beginning but this guy carries on in the hope that it will fit in somewhere. He even messes up the first time he tries to play it. To put him in the same league as Anindo and Zakir just shows your lack of knowledge of tabla.

[gagan31313]

What he is playing there is not a tabla but a jori packowage :)

Kya baat hai sir, Tussi really g r e a t ho

[KillinDaWelfareMCs]

why is his name naamdhari when he is not, he is a mona right?

[KillinDaWelfareMCs]

my apologies to ustad Pinky ji...

"Kabir say love the ONE and comming and going ceases, wether you grow your hair long or shave it short."

Salok bhagat kabir Guru Granth Sahib...Its true long hair or not...does not make one acceptable or not...their actions do.

ps

he has recently been seen as a Singh again.

[hammerguy1512]

what a beast this bayan is

[theanhadnaad]

ofcourse he could play pakhawaj...this is infact a pakhawaj Jori solo

[allfieldsreq]

@gusheneshin go to banaras... there is no other gharana there. I feel a better statement would be: he is one of the best reps of the gharana.

[sarangifactory]

19's Wah...Pinky is unquestionably a heavy weight at his game. I was at this concert. Thanks for sharing this as you posted it literally the following day after the solo. :) Someone elses has post the clip from another angle lol... please share more clips if you can, Its a great Inspiration for younger musicians like myself and others...

[theanhadnaad]

they should have put one mic on the Chhattu and Duggi

[dekhidekhi]

yes yes jatleeeeee, bare messages.

but tru he shud av killd da jori

[kirpali]

This was a great performance, although I enjoyed second half more. If you want live performances then its either Zakhir Hussain ji or the man on the Screen above. Pinky ji is greatest Pakhawaj player.

[jatlee1973]

Great concert, we want more time dedicated to the pakhavaj jori though!!

[agusthi]

You are a master pinkiji, Please dont forget Pakhawaj!!!!!
