We hardly do the same concert twice in a row. It's such an amazing time to be alive, to be a musician, to be able to participate in the world of music. I feel we've got like a workshop, a studio filled with so many amazing pieces of music. It's a toolbox from which we can build our concerts.

After we recorded his song 'Aaj Ki Raat' (from Anamika , 1973) on our Kronos Caravan CD, a friend of mine was interviewing Asha Bhosle. He played our version for her, and then he sent me a photograph of her singing along with our recording, while holding the jacket of the CD. That was about six years ago, and it was probably at that moment that I had this little idea 'Wouldn't it be incredible if somehow we could have Asha Bhosle as our lead singer and record an album of R D Burman's music' In working with Asha Bhosle on 'You've Stolen My Heart', Kronos has experienced not only Burman's living legacy, but also one of the most talented and generous artists I know of. Asha truly is the Queen of Bollywood.
