de vrij complexe songstructuren van de Indiase muziek moeten je liggen. slechts 2 lang uitgesponnen instrumentale nummers op dit album, waarbij het iets meer melodieuze "Thumri" mijn voorkeur geniet.
(deel) citaat uit de liner notes ( Fredric Lieberman):
"Ustad Sultan Khan" is one of the foremost sarangi players in India, renowned for his extraordinary technical and melodic control over this difficult instrument. The sarangi is one of the most sonorous bowed string instruments of India, with a highly vocal sound and technique. It is fast disappearing; few high-calibre artists can be heard on concert platforms today. Characteristic of Sultan Khan's sarangi playing style are his exquisiste "gamak" (ornaments or grace-notes), and intricate "taan" melodic patterns.
In November 1974, Pandit Ravi Shankar and George Harrison collaborated with some of the greatest Indian musicians of our time on a concert tour of the United States. When the group arrived in San Francisco, the Indian musicians were invited to perform an informal concert at the Stone House in Marin County. This recording is a document of that unusual performance".
Album werd geproduceerd door Zakir Hussain & Mickey Hart
Recorded at the Stone House, Fairfax, California (November 1974)
