Comments – There is a lot of stuff mixed in here.  It is perhaps not the best example of Pahadi. Some suggest that it might be closer to Durga, But with so much stuff going on here it is really hard to tell.

Comments – This is a first class example of Pahadi. If you are a music student, this is a good example to work from. There are a few places where it goes off rag. However, Pahadi is so light and free in its definition, that virtually anything can be thrown in. Therefore, this is in line with just about any Pahadi you are likely to encounter.

Comments – Even by the loose standards of Pahadi, this song is all over the place.  There are several rags mixed in here; most notably are strong elements of Shivaranjani thrown in.  If you are trying to get a handle on the structure of Pahadi, this would not be my first choice as a representative piece.

Comments – Pahadi, by its very definition, is a loose mish-mosh. But for some reason there are brief flashes where Lataji goes off rag in a fashion that is extreme even for Pahadi (Presumably someone forgot to take their meds.) This is first heard about halfway through the song, and then again toward the very end. Maybe the recordist just decide to splice in a different song? mmmmm – no, probably not.
