1	A.R. Rahman's Bombay Dreams (2002) more music like this by Original London Cast see all copies from $2.49! new only from $12.69!
2	Breathing Under Water (2007) more music like this by Anoushka Shankar and Karsh Kale Breathing Under Water is a different animal altogether. The pair co-wrote eight of the 13 cuts together. Another, "Easy," was co-written with Norah Jones -- Anoushka Shankar's half sister -- and sung by her. Ravi wrote a two-part tune with his daughter and appears on the album as well. The other big name guest is Sting (it's a payback for Shankar ... see all copies from $15.65! new only from $15.65!
3	The Best of Bollywood: 15 Classic Hits from the Indian Cinema (2003) more music like this by Various Artists With 15 tracks from 15 big Bollywood movies (Gambler, Janbaaz, Julie, Qurbani, and Tere Mere Sapne, to name a few), The Best of Bollywood offers a great look into what makes the films so popular: the music. Well-known playback singers like Kishore Kumar, Alka Yagnik, and Lata Mangeshkar are all included various times throughout the album, which ... see all copies from $5.64! new only from $8.66!
4	Putumayo Presents: Asian Lounge (2005) more music like this by Various Artists Putumayo visited India and East Asia for its 2002 compilation Asian Groove, where artists like Badar Ali Khan and Bally Sagoo blended traditional instruments with scratchy hip-hop grooves and lush ambient sounds. 2005's Putumayo Presents: Asian Lounge isn't as adventurous. Selections from new age healer Deepak Chopra ("Oceans of Ecstasy," from his ... see all copies from $13.37! new only from $13.37!
5	Roots and Wings (1990) more music like this by Sheila Chandra Her newest album is the product of her five-year hiatus, during which time she continued to refine her vocal techniques. In many respects Roots and Wings represents the quintessence of Sheila Chandra's music, stripped down to its essential core. The instrumentation is greatly simplified. Gone are the piano, sitar, and the synthesizers, hitherto ... see all copies from $2.00! new only from $14.78!
6	Moonsung (1999) more music like this by Sheila Chandra World music pioneer Sheila Chandra's diverse, groundbreaking works for the Real World label are collected on the 1999 retrospective Moonsung. The album explores Chandra's spectrum as a vocalist; she combines influences from Ireland, India, Andalucia and the Arabic world in a timeless, distinctive style. Creative and spiritual, Moonsung provides ... see all copies from $2.98! new only from $8.64!
7	Alisha (1986) more music like this by Alisha Madonna's popularity inspired numerous clones in the '80s -- most of whom lacked even a fraction of her talent. But one Material Girl disciple who gave listeners some decent club hits and dance-pop numbers was the New York teenager Alisha, who doesn't have a great voice by any means, but projects enough spirit and energy to make this self-titled ... see all copies from $6.92! new only from $16.21!
8	Between Heaven and Earth (2004) more music like this by A.R. Rahman see all copies from $6.75! new only from $11.22!
9	Rough Guide to Indian Lounge (2007) more music like this by Various Artists Ah, here's a question: just what is "Indian Lounge" anyway? To judge by this Rough Guide, it's a very broad definition and covers anything that might be Indian-inflected, or performed by someone with a connection of sorts to India -- which can very wide-ranging, indeed. That's evident by the cuts that bookend the disc, an instrumental soundscape ... see all copies from $10.76! new only from $10.76!
10	Bombay Dub Orchestra (2006) more music like this by Bombay Dub Orchestra Bombay Dub Orchestra is the brainchild of two British producers, Andrew T. Mackay (a TV/film score composer and classical arranger who has worked with everyone from Herb Ritts to L.A. rock & roll outfit VAST) and producer Garry Hughes (Björk, Sly & Robbie) with master mixing engineer Daman Sood. They figured by bringing beats, keyboards, a full ... see all copies from $12.39! new only from $16.81!
11 view cover	Wanderlust (2007) more music like this by Kiran Ahluwalia Here's something decidedly different, and quite enchanting. The second album from the Canadian-Indian singer revolves around the romantic ghazal form, but takes it to unimagined places, adding electric guitar to the mix at several points, and also, on three tracks, mashing up fado and ghazal quite beautifully. That seems an unlikely alliance, but ... see all copies from $7.38! new only from $14.56!
12 view cover	Soul of the Esraj (2000) more music like this by Benjy Wertheimer see all copies from $12.55! new only from $14.38!
13 view cover	Putumayo Presents: Asian Groove (2002) more music like this by Various Artists Somewhere along the line, the term "oriental" became politically incorrect. The term was in no way derogatory -- it simply referred to people from what used to be called the Orient (China, Japan, Vietnam, Korea, and Thailand), just as the term "Scandinavian" is applied to people from Sweden, Norway, Denmark, and Finland. But the language police ... see all copies from $8.63! new only from $8.63!
14 view cover	Rough Guide to Bhangra Dance (2006) more music like this by Various Artists Even in the wake of the Asian Massive movement, bhangra remains alive, although it's still a predominantly British phenomenon. However, the term bhangra dance is almost redundant, as it was originally a folk dance style that's evolved through Western instruments into something that packs the dancefloors in clubs -- though still marked by the beat ... see all copies from $11.15! new only from $13.16!
15 view cover	The Namesake [Original Score] (2007) more music like this by Nitin Sawhney In Mira Nair's film The Namesake (which is based on the book by Jhumpa Lahiri), a man searches to balance his American life and mindset with his parents' Indian customs, eventually coming to a kind of understanding of his two sometimes contrasting sides. Accordingly, the accompanying soundtrack reflects this confluence of cultures -- as well as ... see all copies from $11.23! new only from $16.06!
16 view cover	Rough Guide to Bollywood: The Glitz, The Glamour, The Soundtrack (2002) more music like this by Various Artists While it is literally impossible to present the history if India's film music industry -- affectionately named Bollywood by outsiders -- on one CD, the folks over at the Rough Guide have done an admirable job of presenting the Bollywood love song in historical and aesthetic context. This CD compiled by DJ Ritu, with excellent liners by Bally Sagoo ... see all copies from $10.83! new only from $13.16!
17 view cover	Introducing A.R. Rahman: Original Soundtracks From the Musical Genius of Indian Cinema (2006) more music like this by A.R. Rahman In common with compilations of prolific film composers in general, this two-CD collection -- as lengthy as it is -- is a necessarily selective overview of some of A.R. Rahman's work. With 24 tracks and more than two hours of music, it includes excerpts from soundtracks spanning 1993-2001, most of the selections containing vocals. Whether ... see all copies from $12.41! new only from $14.77!
18 view cover	The Rough Guide to Asha Bhosle (2003) more music like this by Asha Bhosle From perhaps the most prolifically recorded artist in worldwide history comes the Rough Guide installment devoted to Asha Bhosle. Bhosle has some 20,000 recordings to her name, making a compilation of 16 a nearly impossible task. This compilation was culled from her full archives, with the help of Bhosle herself, as well as her son, so the songs ... see all copies from $13.16! new only from $13.16!
19 view cover	The Legend: India's Best-Loved Singer (2006) more music like this by Lata Mangeshkar Lata Mangeshkar is either the most-recorded or the second most-recorded artist in history, depending on which account you read. And if she does fall into the second slot, that's only because her equally renowned sister, Asha Bhosle, has been in the same business for nearly as long as Mangeshkar. That business is Bollywood -- the prolific Indian ... see all copies from $20.60! new only from $20.60!
20 view cover	Bollywood: An Anthology of Songs from Popular Indian Cinema (2005) more music like this by Various Artists This whopping two-disc set from Silva collects popular Bollywood tunes between 1957, with Asha Bhosle's first vocal and cinematic appearance, in a film called Asha (and yes, she appears a great deal here, being the most recorded vocalist in Indian history) with the tune "Ina Mina Dika," through to 2001's "Khamoshian Gungunane Lagin" by Lata ... see all copies from $12.60! new only from $15.11!
21 view cover	Atish (1990) more music like this by Najma For those seeking something fresh-sounding from Indian pop of the early 1990s, Najma's Atish wouldn't be a bad choice at all. Najma, a charming and very likable singer, is far from predictable on this eclectic CD, which combines Indian music with Western elements. Traditional Indian instruments such as the tablas and the dholak successfully ... see all copies from $16.09! new only from $22.18!
22 view cover	Vande Mataram (1997) more music like this by A.R. Rahman "Vande Mataram" became a Sanskit rallying cry for freedom in the early 1900s, as Indians protested against the partitioning of Bengal and its use as the title for the first international release by Ar Rahman, one of India's most popular contemporary recordings artists, is appropriate. Vande Mataram was released to coincide with the fiftieth ... see all copies from $2.79!
23 view cover	The Kings and Queens of Bollywood (2001) more music like this by Various Artists It was during the '60s that Bollywood music as it's largely recognized today began, with the masala (spicy mix) films. Throwing every style into the visual pot, they also made the soundtracks a real stew -- and, with it being that time, psychedelia was part of the mix, too. And if you want to know what the decade sounded like for Bollywood, look ... see all copies from $14.11! new only from $14.11!
24 view cover	Yoga Chill: Global Sounds for Yoga and Meditation (2003) more music like this by Various Artists The compilation Yoga Chill announces its purpose in its subtitle, "Global Sounds for Yoga and Meditation." Sean Dinsmore of the Dum Dum Project recalls in his liner notes his first yoga class and in particular the varied music he heard at it. He and his associates attempt to re-create that effect here, using the first disc's 12 selections to ... see all copies from $14.77! new only from $14.77!
25 view cover	Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (1998) more music like this by Kuch Kuch Hota Hai see all copies from $3.83! new only from $3.83!
