Mustt Mustt

Released

The great qawwali singer Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan was a bit of an unlikely figure in the Asian Underground movement, and might not even have considered himself a part of it at all. But on this album, which was produced by the experimental guitarist Michael Brook (and released on Peter Gabriel’s Real World label), he illustrates the promise of Asian-British musical fusion beautifully, his nimble voice blending seamlessly with the East-West accompaniment created by his own band and multiple guests. And there’s a Massive Attack remix of the title track!
