Legendary Sitar player Ravi Shankar has passed away.
He introduced the western world to the Sitar & Indian Raga style music.
He displayed his mastery of music & played with ta full spectrum of musicians, from classical to rock-
he will always be known as a "musician extraordinaire".
With George Harrison (Beatles)
With his daughter Anoushka

I have to wonder if not for Geo Harrison if we would've ever heard the incredible Ravi. what a loss that would've been. in footage from the Concert for Bangladesh, when Ravi and his fellow musicians were warming up, the audience was so unfamiliar with that style of music, they all started vigorously clapping just for the tune-up.
