I was fortunate enough to hear this music way back in 1998 when a great yoga teacher came to my studio.. When I was alone, cleaning the floors I would play it.. One time a female instructor came in and heard it, she instantly fell in love with it and started dancing around the room.. I thot I was in heaven
