The Essence by Deva Premal (CD, Jun-1998, White Swan Records)

Deva Premal has one of the most beautiful and lyrical voices in New Age music. When I owned my Metaphysical bookstore, she and this album was a top seller. Relaxing and uplifting Hindu Chants and songs. You don't have to appreciate Hindu Chants to enjoy this CD. It will touch your heart and make you feel good to be alive and connected. Play it while you work on eBay! The Massage therapists in my community bought this for thier practice and that should tell you how Deva Premal deliver's a sense of harmony and well being. The musical instruments, drum, sitar, tambura all played expertly combined with her angelic voice took this CD to the top of Best of New Age in 1999 and it stayed at the top for years after! Buy it and give it as a gift, you will be so pleased you did!
