Vande Mataram 2:(HMV; Rs 50).The producers say the idea behind thisVande Mataram series is to "revive our dormant national pride". If this doesn't do it, nothing will. Ranjit Barot's music is excellent. Lata Mangeshkar sounds better than she has in years. Particularly impressive is the choice of Om Puri for an English commentary in his pronouncedly unanglicised accent, along with Saddiq Khan's lilting rendition of Mother.MTV Soul'd Out:(Bmg Crescendo; Rs 125).If you're sold on soulful stuff,MTV Soul'd Out is for you. The album includes Puff Daddy's version ofI'll be missing you featuring Faith Evans and 112, Aretha Franklin withA rose is still a rose, Whitney Houston, TLC and others. A good buy.Published By: AtMigration Published On: Sep 21, 1998--- ENDS ---
