Ismail is the best music weaver in India right now. I appreciate Rahman, but Ismail's music is more classy and more integrated. Ismail Darbar is as under rated as Rahman is over rated. I think Ismail Darbar is not as well appreciated becuase in india we just don't have as many people who appreciate good music anymore, no body knows whats good music here anymore. And as a fact i present the stuff thats promoted on TV. We make a lot of trash and trash gets sold. To a music lover like me its heart wrenching. I love a wide range of music from classical Indian to much of Rock ( Led Zeppelin, Floyd, u2, Aerosmith, also Coldplay, Sting and many more). Ismail Darbar is great and i hope he gets more oppurtunity to make good music.
