KG Westman- Anandpriya (Roots Rock Records RRR010LP)

KG has established himself as the premeir sitar player in Sweden (maybe Europe?) and he is back with another solo album. Last years excellent record was a collaboration with different Swedish, Indian and Egyptian artists.  This record features KG on Sitar, Suvrat Apte-Tabla (has played with Zakir Hussain and many others) and Amanda Welch on Swarmandal (Harp like instrument).  There are 3 tracks on side A and 2 on side B.  This is very traditional Indian classical music and side A (as explained in detail on the back of the album by his teacher) is an afternoon music while side B is an evening raga.  This is just awesome stuff.  Limited to 300 copies on vinyl only.
