WHERE MUSIC LISTENS TO YOU

Shankar, Horn and the virtues of simplicity

Posted over 2 years ago
Even if you're not a lover of Indian music you've heard of Ravi Shankar. After becoming George Harrison's friend and mentor in 1965 (around the time of Rubber Soul) the exposure he gained in the world of western pop music is well documented with his performances at the Monterey Pop Festival, Woodstock and the Concert for Bangladesh. Thanks to Harrison, the sound of the sitar became the craze in many 60's tunes post Norwegian Wood.
