Besides giving a recital, he answered questions relating to Indian classical music. Asked what difference it would have made to the concert had his wife not been indisposed he replied ' my wife adds colour to the recital; she gets the same billing as me although I have been playing the sitar 25 years and still can't play whilst she plays the tanpura which anyone can play in two minutes !geofpearsonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5951570112842053779.post-45263677362074019332012-10-21T01:32:36.239+02:002012-10-21T01:32:36.239+02:00this is fantastic. many thanks for sharingthis is fantastic. many thanks for sharingsf1984CGnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5951570112842053779.post-75379654244310272792012-05-07T18:05:49.123+02:002012-05-07T18:05:49.123+02:00omg, 3 mizrabs! and speaking of Ravi Shankar, in ...omg, 3 mizrabs! and speaking of Ravi Shankar, in one of his books he mentioned Mushtaq Ali Khan as having a style which really was a link all the way back to the 1800's, so this is super cool to hear his disciple!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5951570112842053779.post-68236534219760289072012-05-07T18:03:44.831+02:002012-05-07T18:03:44.831+02:00cool cover, too. although the psychedelic influen...cool cover, too. although the psychedelic influence also reminds me of how horrified Ravi Shankar was to have his music become a symbol of drug use. whenever i see an old Dragnet TV episode from the period, the hippie crash pad scene always has some sitar (or at least tambura) playing in the background.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
