Story behind the song
This is a companion song to JBBQ's Asian song, ORIENTAL MEMORIES with both tunes featuring a similar Shakuhachi Melody. However, with different instrumental Solos (respectively, Piano and Sitar) and marked variations of Backing, each song has its own distinctive musical nature. For example, THE ORIENT EXPRESSED has a Malaysian song style called Dangdut (fast even 8ths feel with pushes in the Bass). Hence, two Asian songs with common but unique Oriental compositions and arrangements. And that is the genius of ancient/modern Oriental Music. No two songs ever sound alike due to the brilliance of the instruments and techniques of the players/presentations.

You brought eastern textures to a samba jazz melody to create a unique sound - love the soloing in this one!
