| Paradesi - Awesome music for Pardesy |
The music of this Pardesy is quite special because in an age of remixes and fast food music, it stands out with its leisured pace and much forgotten flavour. Sure, it's no competition to its antecedents; still it earns points for being an opulent looking album with a fully committed soul.
