We are back -- a few weeks past the 10th anniversary of the start of this blog -- with a relatively rare Carnatic LP from the great TN Seshagopalan on the Sangeetha label which was based in Madras. This (currently) 44 year-old album has never had any copies sold or offered for sale on Discogs (the most popular online marketplace for records). I was very fortunate to be able to pick it up as part of a large collection of both Hindustani and Carnatic LPs at my local used record shop.
