In 1955, Ali Akbar Khan issued an LP called ‘Music of India: Morning and Evening Ragas’, with spoken introductions by Western classical violinist Yehudi Menuhin. Between then and now, there has been an explosion of Indian music and culture in the West. Most visibly, the wonders of Indian musical world were spread by Ravi Shankar and George Harrison of the Beatles, but the music also had a profound effect on Mickey Hart and the Grateful Dead, John McLaughlin, Philip Glass, the Byrds, John Coltrane, and many others. Lavezzoli in this engaging book explores the relationships between Indian music and jazz, rock, and electronic music.
