Nobody will never ever match his talent and technique of playing, his magic touch, because tabla playing was his life's tapasyia, his daily worship. His way of living, his way of thinking and his way of playing were different, that is how I fell in love with him, still love him and will love him forever... the biggest loss of my life... May my beloved husband rest in peace and be remembered always...
Hi Tina Thank you for posting this. Such wonderful memories of Him. This is John Protopapas from many years back. Hope you are doing well. Sending you lots of Love and best regards. Pranams.
@@sitarjohn1 thank you John for your nice msg 🙏 actually I am not the one who posted the video, but I'm very thankful to "shezef" who did 🙏 Varanasi is not the same anymore since Maharaj left his body and my life went upside down 🙃 but life is going on and I do my best 🥰
एक जूगनू भी था दीयों के साथ रोशन मगर. जब अँधेरा हुआ तब मैं पहचाना उसे. मैं वाकई बड़ा खुशनसीब हूँ कि ईश्वर के इस महान कृति को आज मैं देख पाया. लेकिन उस से बड़ा बदनसीब भी,, क्योंकि जब तक वो हमारे बीच थे तो मैं उन्हें जान हीं नहीं पाया. आज वो हमारे बीच नहीं रहे!!!!!! , हम तुच्छ प्राणी ईश्वर से उनके लिए क्या दुआ मांगेंगे.?... वो तो देवताओ में शामिल हो गए. मैं आशीर्वाद हीं मांग सकता हूँ................................ upload karne wale महानुभाव ko सहृदय धन्यवाद्. जय हिन्द!
Tabla maestro Pandit Lachhu Maharaj Ji is unique for their time... Pandit Ji played Tabla in the days of youth is unparalleled and luxurious...You have large collection of compositions in Tabla playing style GAT and FARD... Yes, it is true, that these very Mizaji and True artist...!
I have some recordings from this artist that I truly treasure... they are extremely unique in my experience, and among my collection of many tabla solos. I have never heard anyone expand on compositions in such a slow and methodical way. Not slow in tempo but rather such a very gentle pace of development of the composition, maybe shifting emphasis only slightly from one note to the next, or shifting it over just slightly. And then all of a sudden there is thunder and lightning! Amazing.
these men are no more in banaras today nor anywhere else in india. the soul of the country is gone and what remains is a voiceless body which listens to rest of the world but cant speak like itself. those days of maharaj, those days of shehnai, those days of sanskrit...... everything is gone. may ruler of other countries protect their culture so that the people embrace the legacy of their ancestors not their masters.
Who cares what sort of expressions he gives, whether he smokes weed or not. Look at the technique, the man is a genius and we are fortunate to watch him in action.
@fishbonegaga My point is this if Gudai Maharaj finds merit in Lachu Maharaj's style then we know this is not an average player. I goto these sites and see people calling Lachu Maharaj, Kishan Maharaj as average performers. Yesterday, I saw a comment which said that some Pohankar guy sings Hamsdhwani better than Ustad Amir Khan (and the guy was singing Amir Khan's composition). Maybe, it's my fault and I should stop reading these comments.
@cenjeekhan I certainly agree. Whether he smokes weed or not, that is his personal life choice. To be perfectly honest, I personally believe "weed" (or any illicit drug for that matter) is a horrible, disgusting thing and will condemn the use of it, especially with my children. But that does not take way from the notion that Pandit Lachu Maharaj is a learned performer. Now, do I particularly like his playing? This is a question for a much different time, but has nothing to do with his smoking:)
@fishbonegaga Wow! you would know. So, being devoted to Ganja & Paan makes him a bad performer, now that is being logical. I am a native of Varanasi and lived in Kamacha near Kathak mohalla. I have heard Gudai Maharaj speak about Lachhu Maharaj's technique with respect. Anybody, can make comments on the internet, but for once think are you even qualified to question his ability.
Bhai you just don't know how hard he has worked on this.Indian classical music is no fun . It's laborious and very committed people dare to enter..He is a legend.See his body language,he is tabla himself.

He was simply incomparable. I say this as a complete novice!
Do tell us about your life with him.

Unfortunate not to have received the credit and publicity deserved by him
He and his instrument (tabla) dance together.Thats what any artist wants to achieve.He did that.
I've never heard such terrific sounds on tabla
Very beautiful and impressive.
It's incredible how he always starts off beat and falls right on the Sam like a thunderbolt.
एक जूगनू भी था दीयों के साथ रोशन मगर.
जब अँधेरा हुआ तब मैं पहचाना उसे.
मैं वाकई बड़ा खुशनसीब हूँ कि ईश्वर के इस महान कृति को आज मैं देख पाया.
लेकिन उस से बड़ा बदनसीब भी,, क्योंकि जब तक वो हमारे बीच थे तो मैं उन्हें जान हीं नहीं पाया.
आज वो हमारे बीच नहीं रहे!!!!!! , हम तुच्छ प्राणी ईश्वर से उनके लिए क्या दुआ मांगेंगे.?... वो तो देवताओ में शामिल हो गए.
मैं आशीर्वाद हीं मांग सकता हूँ................................ upload karne wale महानुभाव ko सहृदय धन्यवाद्. जय हिन्द!

Ustad Amir khan was a highest vocalist of All time

they do not play for skill or craft or virtuosity; therefore, they cannot be compared.
