Flags at half mast and the right music

No dirges for me at my funeral. I have a long list of music that keeps getting modified - of music that I want played at my funeral or memorial service or whatever. So this entry will be modified everyday - no doubt leaving my mourners thoroughly confused and squabbling over what gouri really wanted to hear when she passes on, etc.
Anyway, there's Omkarnath Thakur's Nilambari.
and Nikhil Banerjee's Desi
and Gundecha brother's Shankara
or Abdul Karim Khan's Shankara
or
Kumar Gandharva's Bhimpalasi
gosh - going to be a long funeral/service...

watch this space for more last songs
