108% True!
I agree with you. Zakirji is a really nice Tabla player, sure he is a master, but he is not alone.
He is only more famous because he had connection with the international scene in his early years, that's all. He dominate nothing.
Too many people just get "Zakir" in their mouth, like if he is the true God of Tabla...
What about Anindo Chatterjee, Amhed Jan Thirakwa, Amir Hussain Khan, Allah Rakha, Nizabuddin Khan, Tari Khan, Samta Prasad Ji, Kishan Maharaj etc

'Dominated the Tabla scene for 20 years'
What an ignorant and ridiculous thing to say! Just because Zakir Hussain is famous among the layman does not mean that other great tabla artists dont exist. It is disrespectful to an endless list of Tabla artists out there.
e.g Anindo Chaterjee, Swapan Choudhury, Ilmas Hussain, Tari Khan, Akram Khan, Nayan Ghosh etc etc

I think 'dominated' in the sense of exactly what you said. He's the most famous tabla player now his father has died. I do agree there's soooo many fantastic players to see, hence my clips of lots of others.

We must all remember that this clip I uploaded is well over 15 years old from my VHS collection so his comments can be taken less seriously now.
