IMO if you’re interested in instrumental ICM/Hindustani music but are intimidated there probably isn’t a better intro than Ravi Shankar’s Improvisations & Theme From Pather Panchali. When you get hooked on that one you can do Three Ragas and bam there it is

Sound when stretched is music. Movement, when stretched, is dance. Mind when stretched is meditation. Life when stretched is celebration." Ravi Shankar

“George’s passion for Indian music is so catching he made me want to hear [Ravi] Shankar play right then and there. George put his opinion of the Beatles’ effect on pop music this way: ‘We were right for the time when we came out. The pop scene five years ago was definitely looked upon by “musicians,” put that in brackets, as a dirty word. Pop was just something crumby. Now I think a lot of things in the pop field have more to them. We’re very influenced by others in pop music and others are influenced by us… That’s good. That’s the way life is. You’ve got to be influenced and you try to be influenced by the best.’” - Loraine Alterman, Detroit Free Press, August 19, 1966 (x)

“[George would pause] intently over one of the two jukeboxes filled with favorites, carefully and deliberately choosing what to play next: a version of ‘The Lumberjack Song,’ Ravi Shankar, endless Dylan, ‘Oh, you must hear this, Eric.’ Early Elvis. ‘Spam.’ EC’s ‘Layla.’ And yet more Dylan. His enthusiasm was contagious. He played the jukebox to inform and instruct. He reveled in sharing his delight in all kinds of music. He would go through periods of furious passions, often lasting for months or even years at a time, when he would insist you shared the joy of Smokey Robinson or the songs of Hoagy Carmichael or the Hawaiian music of Gabby Pahinui or even the ukulele nonsense of George Formby. During this latter stage everyone had to learn the uke; even Liv he taught to strum away. He embraced all forms life. It was to be savored and enjoyed. But music was at the heart of it. It could speak more truly to the soul. And the soul was what George was about.” - Eric Idle, The Greedy Bastard Diary (x)

these old notes are wild (in a way, this is its own form of fusion…grumble grumble…) (Re my side thing from before, you can notice this on this album: the first side is all examples of ‘fusion’—-ICM with western film music, jazz, and here Carnatic music, and then the second side is a straight long form raga)
