If multiple orgasms is your thing, then Zakir Hussain is your pimp. He no more just plays tabla. Instead, he conducts this orgy of sound that leaves the listener exhausted, as musicians from across the world join him on stage for a series of mini-climaxes, before it all comes together for the big one.
Consider the performers at a concert I attended last Friday and you will see why my metaphor is not a tease.
Zakir (tabla), Selva Ganesh (kanjira), Niladhari Kumar (sitar), Taufiq Qureshi (percussions), Vinnie Colaiuta (drummer… for Zappa), Bela Fleck (banjo) and Edgar Meyer (double bass).
