Hi all, here is another for your possible interest: a live concert by the New Zealand performer Jyoshna (then Jyotsna) La Trobe, recorded by myself in Tasmania in 1995 with a backing band of local musicians. Jyoshna is a devotee of Indian devotional music and this is reflected in her songwriting. Something a bit different for those of us brought up on the "Anglo Celtic" and/or U.S. singer songwriter traditions, but potentially of interest to those of more of a "world music" persuasion and in any case, a tape I did not want to be lost to posterity.

I sent this recording to Jyoshna who decided that she would like to publish it via her own YouTube channel, which is fine with me (YT only permits one copy of a particular item to be uploaded). You can find it at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jw-x2BuSlNE. For a complete set of Jyoshna's uploads, including a number of recordings of Indian musicians in the field, see here.
