Intoxicated by the voice… on a high ever since I first heard it over the phone…
There is depth and a poignancy and then there is a hint of masti… a bit of impish humour and don’t know about others but when the Nawaab Saheb speaks to me… there is love in his voice.
I could listen to his voice for hours… never get bored of it. That he never speaks anything but sensible, intelligent stuff is an added bonus. But, the fact is that had he been saying absolute gibberish… I would still be mesmerised… still be enthralled and still would be totally swayed.
Hum par toh inki aawaaz ka nasha chaaya hua hain…
Here’s a piece from Sharaabi in his…ufff… breathtaking voice.
