Great set of jazz and classical musicians. I Had the great pleasure of hearing Sonny Rollins live at the Jazz Yatra in Bombay in 1978.An unforgettable experience!

Wow! I never knew Jazz Yatra attracted greats like Sonny Rollins. Thanks for the info.

Apart from the great Sonny Rollins Jazz Yatra had performers like Stan Getz,Clark Terry,Chico Freeman,Don Cherry,Mingus Dynasty,Don Ellis and lots of others.The first few Jazz Yatras-the first one being in 1978 were great with Willis Conover being there as a bonus!

Yes Willis Conover was in Bombay for the 1980 Jazz Yatra.If you closed your eyes while he was announcing it was like listening to VOA Jazz Hour.Great memories!!

Not being able to meet Conover will remain one of my biggest regrets.

This is what Bertrand Russell said about religion...

Religion is based, I think, primarily and mainly upon fear. It is partly the terror of the unknown and partly, as I have said, the wish to feel that you have a kind of elder brother who will stand by you in all your troubles and disputes. ... A good world needs knowledge, kindliness, and courage; it does not need a regretful hankering after the past or a fettering of the free intelligence by the words uttered long ago by ignorant men.
