Bade Ghulam Ali Khan: Raga Adana & Raga Chhayanat & Lakshmi Bai (Laxmibai) Jadhav: Raga Lalit Bahar - Heritage - Cassette released in India in 1999


Here another cassette from the Heritage Series with beautiful archival recordings by two great singers of the first half of 20th century. Ustad Bade Ghulam Ali Khan needs no introduction as he is very famous and we already posted five LPs and cassettes by him. See here.

Laxmibai Jadhav (1901-1979) is much less known. She was a legendary singer of the Jaipur-Atrauli Gharana and a disciple of Ustad Haider Khan (brother of Atrauli-Jaipur founder Alladiya Khan). She was contemporaneous with Kesarbai Kerkar and Mogubai Kurdikar and next to these two the third outstanding female singer of the Jaipur-Atrauli Gharana. 
See on her:

Next we will post more by her. Between 2014 and 2016 the Indian label Meera Music released seven albums by her. They can be purchased as MP3-320 files on CD Baby.
