Air Sangeet Sammelan, Rips from old tapes made in the 70s and 80s. Options

[nandi]

I have a lot of these home-made tapes made in India and I will upload these as time permits.
There are some significant Radio artistes who did not make it big in the commercial circuit. People like Sumati Mutatkar, Sulochna Brihaspati, Malabika Kanan will be featured in these.
I will try to add whatever information I can gather on these artistes. Most of these are AIR broadcasts of the weekly Radio Sangeet Sammelans and may include some very established artistes also.
