a variety of musical styles, created baul-jazz, some of which must have jarred with the sensibilities of its audience. Today, these compositions sound quite contemporary, leading many to conclude that Moheener Ghoraguli was indeed ahead of its time. The band freely borrowed elements from baul shongeet, the folk music of rural Bengal. It can therefore lay claim to being the original Bengali folk-rock band. Many bands since Moheen have adopted similar innovations. Live performances The original Moheener Ghoraguli line-up performed consistently over the period 1976–1981 throughout the city of Kolkata. Some of their notable performances were at: Jogesh Mime Academy (1977 and 1978) Star Theater (1978) Max Mueller Bhavan (1979) Rabindra Sadan (1977 and 1979) St. Paul's Cathedral, Kolkata (1980) Kolkata International Jazz Festival (1980) Calcutta School of Music (1981) Tollygunge Club (1981) Abar Bochhor Kuri Pore concert: All the new generation musicians who performed in the Aabaar Bochhor Kuri Pore album artists were given the opportunity to perform. While the singers and musicians were performing on the stage, at the backside, six huge canvas was kept and drawn by one of Bengal's most famous contemporary painters, depicted the meaning of the songs live on the canvas (Hiran Mitra also made such appearance in the 1970s with the Moheener Ghoraguli). Each of the Canvas later was donated to Jadavpur University Student's Union with an autograph of Gautam and Rathin. In this concert, a few members of Original Mohineer Ghoraguli were also present like Abraham Majumder with his young students of Kolkata Music Academy, Tapas Das, Pradip Chattopadhyay, and Raja Banerjee. Monida's last live performance was at Kalyani University in January of 1999, along with Subrata Ghosh of Garer Math, Neel, Bonny & Dwide of the then Krosswindz and the live sound mixing was done by Chhoton (founder member of Chandrabindo), a die-hard follower and inspirer of Subrata & Monida.
