Notable, for me at least, for the Shakti collaboration with John McLaughlin.

Too young.

A tremendous tabla player - one of the greatest

Probably best known for his work with Shakti and John McLaughlin a well as extensive work with violinist L Shankar and the joint venture album Planet Drum with The Deads' Mickey Hart

Check this one out - Karuna Supreme with the jazz saxophonist John Handy and the great Ali Akbar Khan on sarod - with Zakir doing his bit!

RIP Zakir

RIP to a true master. One of our own used to be part of his touring org. Forget his name but last
I remember he was in Spain with Hotsie which was long ago.
