Presenting a small tribute to Goutam Chattopadhyay founder of Mohiner Ghoraguli | The legend of Bangla band. Gautam Chattopadhyay was an iconic Indian Bengali singer, songwriter, bassist, and composer, a theatre person, filmmaker, and ethnographer, who initiated the Bengali Band Music in this part of the Country. In 1975, he founded the progressive rock band "Moheener Ghoraguli" with Tapas Das, Abraham Mazumdar, Pradip Chatterjee, Ranjan Ghoshal, Biswanath Bishu Chattopadhyay Tapesh Bandopadhyay. During his college years, he played lead guitar in a band called 'The Urge' And Performed in Trincas and Moulin Rouge at Park Street of Kolkata during the 1960s. IN the early 70s he then moved to Jabalpur, working for about a year as a Medical representative in Jabalpur and then in Bhopal. He continued composing music during this phase of his life. Gautam Chattopadhyay was invited to Karbi-Anglong in the mid-nineties to work with the Karbi people and to preserve their folklores and folk music, which they felt was being influenced by film music. Gautam did not believe in just saving their music by making notations and keeping it in an archive, instead, he started teaching the young people to read notations, to play and sing the songs and during this period he came up with the idea of doing an opera with them. He did the opera on their folklore called Hai-mu. About 300 Karbi youth performed in this opera which was a grand success. The Karbis fell in love with Gautam. Gautam then began to make a film in the Karbi language, which remained incomplete due to his sudden death in 1999.
