This album is great of course. It is Ustad Sultan Khan. He is one of the best sarangi masters there is. I want to let everyone know the structure of the tracks as I wanted to before buying. There is a very brief alap on Raga Bageshree and then goes into the gat. The track is about 30 minutes along. The thumri is basically the same way but it is shorter about 11 minutes long. The sarangi playing is definitely up front. The tabla playing is very minimal but always fitting. This is a great album. This is more accesible with the short alap and minimal tabla playing than his album of Raga Bhupali with Zakir Hussain though they are both great. Bageshree is one of my favorite ragas but this album was recorded in the 70's and the bhupali album was around 2000 i think. Therefore, the playing is much more mature. Also, Bageshree has a tanpura keeping the drone. Bhupali does not. So if you have a preference on that, that would help. All in all both are great albums in their own right but if i had to reccomend one i would probably say Bhupali. The long alap is beautiful and Zakir's tabla playing is unmatched.
