Sublime ! Serene ! Soothing ! Soulful ! Delighted to listen to this magnificent ensemble of the choicest ghazals of the great Mehdi Hassan Saab ! What a great coincidence it is - so many gems in just one go ! The great Mehdi Hassan Saab was the synonyme of soft, soothing, and soulful music ! Professionalism, Perfection, and Sophistication in performance was the hallmark of the great Khan Saab ! His style of gayiki was pretty simple, soft, effortless, soothing and soulful but overbearing and very difficult to emulate ! Besides, the great Mehdi Hassan Saab had something divine in his voice, which had set him apart from his contemporaries and juniors ! He had given ghazal gayiki a pedestal, which will be very difficult to surpass ! Such a resourceful singer will ever tread this path again in the world ! Music Today deserves appreciation for its immaculate choice of uploads ! Look forward to listen to many more of the genre in the days to come !

किसी ने बहुत ही खूब कहा है की एक तरफ ताजमहल और दूसरी तरफ मेहदी हसन। इस से ज़्यादा और क्या तुलना करें उनकी। 🙏

"The world is, infact, a mixture of truth and make - believe ! Discard the make - believe and take the truth !" - Ramakrishna Paramhangsha. Who was the great Mehdi Hassan Saab and what was his contribution in the realm of the Hindustani Classical Music, in general, and Ghazal Gayiki, in particular, is readily available in the public domain and in anybody's reach ! The sequence of events in the History of Music will amply testify to this historical fact ! The illustrious career of the great Khan Saab spanning over almost six decades will speak volumes about his abilities - as a singer of exceptional merit ! Viewers hardly require any bidding, from any quarter,whatsoever, for this ; and the least, from a novice like this ! They are intelligent enough to draw their own inference/conclusion ! How right was John Fitzgerald Kennedy in his assessment in saying - "A man may die ; nations may rise and fall ; but an idea lives on !" In this backdrop, the great Mehdi Hassan Saab hardly requires any certification/green signal/go ahead from any quarter, whatsoever, for moving forward ! No epithet is sufficient to describe this enormous talent ! The great Mehdi Hassan Saab was just 'INFALLIBLE' - as an exponent of ghazal gayiki - and as such, he was beyond the reach of us - 'FALLIBLES' ! Perhaps, a legend can truly realize the greatness of an another legend ! How right was the great Lataji in her assessment of the great Mehdi Hassan Saab in saying - "God resides in the voice of Mehdi Hassan Saab !" Did the great Mehdi Hassan Saab require any other accolade about his singing attributes from any other quarter, whatsoever !
