memory

Wrote this some 2 months back when Gangubai Hangal expired.
=====================
Gangubai Hangal passed away today. I am not a big fan of Gangubai, have listened to some of her recordings. Though I found them nice, didn't find them to be my favourite.

She was 97. She was ill from quite some time. She was serious since last 3-4 days, so this news was kind of expected. Still, I was touched by the news of Gangubai's death. Some days back Miachel Jackson passed way. I listened to three of his nice songs after he passed away. Now probably I will explore Gangubai's music. I am not great fan of either, nor am I related to some or other way to these people. I know it is a benefit of technology that they have left some of theirs part in the recordings.
I can also record my voice or get myself photographed or something similar before I die. But probably nobody distant will be interested in these things after I leave this world.
