Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan Live In Paris, 21st March 1988 – His Best Concert Ever

The term ” first contact” is often used when a new life-form is discovered in Alien Movies. This Concert performance of NFAK was nothing less than ” The First Contact” of the french audience present in the crowd with Music of “Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan”. When coming out of the concert, most of them felt deeply moved or even transported to different reality (as they themselves reported), the last two hours were imprinted on their lives forever….

Before I post the audio and video links to this performance, lets first talk about this concert in particular and why I feel that it’s best ever. First, NFAK was in his best improvisation mood that day, placed in front of a almost french crowd, who he knew wouldn’t understand a word he utters, sargams and fireworks were the best he could do, and it lead to some of the best improvisations ever.

Even when back in 90’s NFAK received “Pride Of Performance” in Pakistan, the rumour was that his songs treated the disturbed daughter of the military ruler. Then there were many reports from Japan and parts of Africa where NFAK’s music was used in Research and therapy. But this time I have a story of NFAK’s music used in Clild Birth.
