| Lost
Vinyl Dave Liebman & Richie Beirach | Forgotten Fantasies Liebman and Bierach were to be frequent collaborators for the rest of their careers. Sadly, many of their duo albums have been long out of print and never made available digitally.

Recorded on November 18, 19 & 20, 1975 it was released on A&M’s Horizon imprint. |

Mahanthappa with the Dakshina Ensemble featuring Kadri Gopalnath
| KinsmenIn 2005 Mahanthappa received a commission from the Asia Society to travel to madras and collaborate with Kadri on the music that has been recorded and released on the Pi Records label under the title Kinsmen.
