Review title: Ali Akbar (con)-Fusion
Product review: Despite my negative review, be assured that I'm huge Ali Akbar Khan fan. However, the two records he released for Triloka were, in my view, uninspired attempts to reach a cross-over new-agey audience. His father, Allaudin Khan, also taught Ravi Shankar, who had quite a bit of international success blending Indian classical music with Western music. This record and one called 'Journey' might have been similarly minded attempts to find a crossover audience, but ugh.'Garden of Dreams' suffers most when it succumbs to a tendency for saccharine melodies with an eastern 'twang', yet it is still superior to the even more dismal 'Journey'.If you want to know why Ali Akbar Khan is one of the most revered 20th century musicians look elsewhere, such as "Traditional Music of India" or his numerous releases on AMMP records, especially the "Signature Series".
