Mehdi Hassan & Tari Khan - Meri Tarha

Hi All,
This very rare and especially melodious ghazal is for all Mehdi Hassan fans out there in the world! It's one of my all time favorites. Making it even more magical is Tari Khan Sahib who provides tabla accompaniment of the highest order. Aren't these two just the best combination ever in a live ghazal? Sure is hard to argue but let me know what you think.
b.t.w. I don't get much time to post so I totally appreciate my friends out there who are making it happen by posting simply incredible & rare items. If it weren't for YOU, we'd all be so much less fulfilled today because this treasure would essentially be isolated and/or lost. Therefore, special thanks is in order to amazing contributors such as cheecheepia, qadrathejutt, mois shaikh and others who keep Khan Sahib's memory alive.
Cheers everyone!

Astonishing breath control.In one of his interview he spilled the beans,he told the interviewer that he is also a pehlwan who did 1000 each dand baithak.

[@swamidasdalvi4845]

The audience doesn't realize their good fortune to hear him live. Pains me to see him quietening them at 8:15. "Woh khaab toot gaya jo main dekh raha tha" implies our loss not his.

[@amarendraborah6941]

No epithet is sufficient to describe this multidimensional talent! Infact, the great Mehdi Hassan Saab was Back, Beethoven and Mozart rolled into one ! The Illustrious career of the great Mehdi Hassan Saab spanning over almost six decades speaks volumes about his abilities as a singer of exceptional merit proving his worth in every aspect of Hindustani Classical Music -- be it Khayal, Thumri, Ghazal, or Playback Singing in Films ! Professionalism, Perfection and Sophistication in performance was the hallmark of the great Mehdi Hassan Saab ! The style of gayiki of the great Khan Saab was very simple, effortless but overbearing and difficult to emulate ! Besides, he had something divine in his voice which made him so special ! It may not be out of place to mention here that the great Lata Mangeshkar held the great Mehdi Hassan Saab in very high esteem and used to say -- " GOD resides in the voice of Mehdi Hassan Saab! " Perhaps, Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan Saab was absolutely right in his assessment that no one else can ever compete with Mehdi Hassan Saab in so far as his control over Sur is concerned ! In this ghazal, the great Khan Saab and Ustad Tari Khan Saab had complemented and suplemented each other very well ! Hat's off to both of these stalwarts for this beautiful bandish ! Punjabi Prinze deserves appreciation for this wonderful upload ! -- Amarendra Borah, Former Commissioner and Secretary, Finance Department, Govt Of Assam (India).

[@ahadkmk]

@Amarendra Borah saab. Hope you are in good health. Today is seventh death anniversary of your loved Great Mehdi Hassan Saab. May Allah shower His blessings on Khan Saab.

[@amarendraborah6941]

Ahadkmk Saab, So kind of your good self for remembering me ! Still more grateful am l to you for reminding me about the death anniversary of the Maestro ! My heartiest respects and tribute to the great Mehdi Hassan Saab on his death anniversary ! May the departed soul rest in eternal peace ! Let us hope and pray ! 💝💝💝💐💐💐 What a great loss it was ! It was as if the ROOH (SPIRIT) of the ghazal gayiki had gone with the sad demise of the great Khan Saab ! Personally speaking, I consider myself to be extremely fortunate to have born during the lifetime of this great legendary singer and noble soul !

[@ahadkmk]

@@amarendraborah6941 Thank you Sir, I really appreciate your quick reply. Very rightly it was great loss as we don't expect such a talent to see again in or lives at least. Mehdi Khan saab was gift for Allah, God, and Eshwar. I fell lucky that I got two chances to listen him live. Such a humble and down to earth person he was.

[@amarendraborah6941]

Ahadkmk Saab,. Friendship thrives on reciprocity and fellow feeling ! It divides grief and multiples joy ! Perhaps, such a resourceful singer will ever be born again in this world ! Khalid Saab ! kindly keep in touch ! Stay blessed ! Take care ! KHUDA HAFIZ !

[@MehulPatel007]

Excuse me, Mehdi Hasan fans, this is great as usual, but what exactly is that idiot in the audience doing to disturb our maestro during 8:13-8:36, just strangely curious...?

[@YourNEBOSHguide]

with due to respect to the talent of tari khan sahab, he tends to get haavi on the singer. I have noticed in few of his other programs also where he has accompanied mehdi sahab, he goes ovrboard in displaying his prowess. a tabalchi must always follow the singer and not try and overshadow him. just an opinion

[@f2ajack]

I believe, Khan Saheb allowed him to go a bit overboard but maza aagaya.

[@saifrehman7413]

Saab. No one can dare even to touch Mehdi Hassan. Tari Khan is merely paying respect to the greatest voice of Indian music.

[@ahadkmk]

But did you notice that Khan Saab is enjoying and appritiating Tari Khan's talent. It was impossible to confuse Khan Saab for any tabla player. By the way Tari Khan is a big fan and admirer of Mehdi Saab.

[@johnwall2803]

He is not overshadowing him but complementing the ghazal. Ustad Tari is allowing Khansahib Mehdi to lead and compliments the song with few variations. Ustad Tari reads Khansahib's cues, body language, and facial expressions and only then does he play intricate laggis and tihais. With Khansahib's expertise, Ustad Tari is free to play intricate yet understandable rhythms. This is exactly what a Tabla player is supposed to do to help elevate the singer's performance. This is a sign of a true maestro.

[@ayushsinghs06]

Not really sir he has always embellished the ghazal with his command of the tabla

[@ganeshbarik8901]

excellent
