“The Panthers” from Pakistan
Norman Braganza on lead guitar and vocals, Fasahat Hussein on sitar, keyboard and tabla, Eric Fernandes on bass and Ahsan Sajjad on drums and lead vocals.
Folk Tunes was recorded first in June 1969. EMI released East Goes West which shows the versatility of the band. This was a well thought out record where local instruments and ragas were utilized as a modern day tune and to show the meeting of the East tunes and West beats/tempo. The bands ability and creativity also comes forth as they employ different beats in sync with the ragas. Sarangi is utilized as an instrument that is very much into the Indo/Pak culture, as the intro to each of the three ragas has a very Eastern tone and creates a haunting melody.The first performance of The Panthers was at “Mahapara” outdoors lounge at the swimming pool of Midway Hotel near the airport.
